Services
Drain Cleaning
Our drain cleaning service removes blockages and buildup from residential and commercial plumbing systems. Using high-pressure water jetting and mechanical snakes, we restore proper flow to clogged drains. Regular maintenance prevents costly backups and extends pipe lifespan. Our technicians identify root causes like grease accumulation or tree root intrusion to provide lasting solutions.
Sewer Line Repair
We specialize in sewer line repair for broken, collapsed, or leaking underground pipes. Trenchless repair options minimize landscape disruption while traditional methods address severe damage. Our video inspection technology pinpoints exact problem locations. We replace damaged sections with durable materials and offer full line replacement for aging systems.
Video Inspections
Our video camera inspections provide non-invasive diagnostics for sewer and water lines. High-resolution cameras navigate pipes to identify cracks, blockages, and root intrusion. This technology enables precise repairs and prevents unnecessary excavation. We provide real-time visual assessments and detailed reports to guide maintenance decisions.
Perimeter Drainage
We install and repair perimeter drainage systems that protect building foundations from water damage. Our weeping tile solutions direct groundwater away from basements using perforated pipes and gravel layers. We address common issues like sump pump failures and clogged drains to prevent basement flooding and structural damage.
Water Main Repairs
Our team handles water main repairs for residential and commercial properties. We detect leaks through pressure testing and repair damaged lines using modern techniques. Emergency services address sudden pipe bursts while scheduled maintenance prevents future failures. We work with municipal regulations to ensure proper water supply restoration.

Report
I manage a commercial building where a leak was found and Paul responded quickly and was in constant communication with me. My Tenant also commented on how professional and great Paul was to work with. During the time of fixing the one leak, I had another small leak pop up and he again responded quickly and nipped the leak in the bud. I would not hesitate to recommend Paul's services!

Best drainage company in North Van! Paul and his team do outstanding work at a reasonable price and are extremely responsive. We had them redo our full outside drainage 4 years back and everything works as it should. We recently had a sewage issue and Paul and team quickly came to the rescue (diagnosing and solving the issue right away). Cant recommend this business enough!

Report
I had several quotes to examine and ensure the drain tiles at my house were functioning properly. The home is an older one and I was sure that the original tiles were compromised. One company came out and did some preliminary work and gave me a quote for the work. They did not do much exploration before determining that I would have to replace the entire system for what seemed like a huge expense.
I called Paul and he explained that more excavation would be required to properly examine the state of the system. He repaired and replaced what was required rather than replace the whole system. His
