Emergency Plumbing
Our certified technicians respond to urgent plumbing issues including burst pipes, major leaks, and sewage backups. With rapid deployment across Toronto and the GTA, we minimize water damage through immediate intervention and permanent repairs. Our emergency service operates continuously with fully equipped response vehicles.
Drain Cleaning
Using high-pressure hydro-jetting and camera inspections, we remove stubborn blockages from residential and commercial drainage systems. Our non-invasive techniques clear clogs without pipe damage while maintaining system integrity. Regular maintenance prevents future backups and extends system lifespan.
Trenchless Pipe Repair
We specialize in cured-in-place pipe lining and pipe bursting technologies that repair damaged sewer lines without excavation. These methods reduce costs by 30-50% compared to traditional replacement while providing durable, code-compliant solutions for residential and commercial properties.
Backwater Valve Installation
Professional installation of backwater valves protects basements from sewage backups during heavy rains. Our plumbers handle permit acquisition and rebate applications while ensuring proper system integration. This critical protection meets Toronto's municipal plumbing requirements for flood-prone properties.
Sump Pump Services
We provide complete sump pump solutions including installation, maintenance, and emergency repairs. Our systems feature battery backups and smart monitoring for uninterrupted operation. Proper water management prevents foundation damage and mold growth in Toronto's variable climate conditions.

This company was hired to increase water flow and pressure, relocate the water meter and relocate the storm and sewer drain outside. I went from 25LPM to 18LPM after they changed the water pipes. They installed the new sewer drain inside the house in the middle of the room without my consent or knowledge. They cemented it after telling them not to do so. They did this because the storm drain was in the way however, they should have asked. Then they didn't re locate the meter as requested. I asked them to repair the work and they refused, then they were slandering me on my home job site and

Great experience with Absolute Draining & Plumbing! Vasyl installed a backup sump pump with battery backup system. He arrived on time and did a clean, professional installation. He also provided several maintenance tips for my peace of mind. The cost was also very reasonable compared to other quotes I received. I would highly recommend them!

Excellent service! Andrew came out quickly and fixed a clogged outdoor drain pipe. The culprit was a plastic bag and dirt! Fantastic service and reasonable pricing! Would highly recommend Andrew from absolute draining. Thanks again

Andrew and his team were fantastic! Our laundry room flooded late on a Sunday night only two weeks after moving in. Andrew was at our house by 11:00 Monday morning, the issue was quickly identified (a collapsed sanitary sewer), and by Tuesday morning his team were digging up our driveway to fix it. Andrew made an incredibly stressful situation a breeze, and explained every step of the process to us.
Andrew also installed a backwater valve at the same time, and six months after the rebate application was submitted - well after after he was fully paid - he personally followed up with the City to

This company is unbelievable ! As soon as I saw sewage backup in my basement I panicked. I was told to call Andrew. He was here within 24 hours. He was able to clear the drain so we could use our water but had to return with his staff and dig up our front lawn to replace the underground pipes. What an amazing job!! They were organized, on time and explained everything to us. Andrew answered all my calls and text messages. Truly an amazing company. They removed and replaced the clogged pipe. All the time he was here, he explained everything and was very patient with us. I would give them 100 stars

Is there an option for ZERO stars? What terrible customer service! We called these guys for an emergency clog service and they said we'd get a call back to set up the appointment, but that call never came. We waited all day and lost our chance to call another plumber. Don't waste your time if you have an emergency. These guys are obviously not serious about their clients.

So my parents wanted to upgrade their water supply. My dad is a life long "do-it-yourselfer", so they don't have much experience dealing with contractors (they only deal with contractors for major stuff that he can't do himself). I on the other hand, am a "hire a professional to do it-er" (even for minor jobs) so I have dealt with many contractors. So they enlisted my help in finding someone to do the job when I was in Toronto visiting them. We ended up going with Absolute Draining and Plumbing and we were very happy with them. When I initially called them for
