Igor came out to the service call and his work was fantastic. He was polite, professional, personable and quick. It was probably the best experience I have had with a tradesman in my home, even the cats and the dog took a shine to him. In the future I will most definitely use Mr Rooter again just to see if we can get Igor to come out.

The plumber who visited to fix my clogged drain was fantastic. Not just a super friendly and experienced person, but knew exactly what to do and did it properly. He was fast, but completely thorough, and showed me everything, so I had no doubts that everything was done exceptionally.

Came quickly. Had alot of digging to do to get to where the leak was. Repaired it all well. The guys worked hard there getting that all done in heat too ontop. Found the leak and repaired it. Put all the dirt back in, and lawn and was cleaned up when done. Yes would recommend them for any project you need. Even while repair was in process managed to connect hoses from one duplex to another and with a splitter gave us water inside while repair was being fixed. Gave me the best price they could too.

Fantastic service! I cannot recommend Mr. Rooter enough! I called them on a Sunday evening with concerns about a strong sewage like smell coming from one of my two condo bathrooms. My boyfriend and I had recently moved into this suite and an inspector had told us that one of the toilets had loose pegs / needed the wax ring replaced/resealed. We decided not to use this bathroom until after we had fully moved/settled in to the suite and until the toilet was properly repaired.. but the sudden strong stentch took us by surprise and we knew we needed help. Thankfully Mr. Rooter is 24/7 so you can call and speak with someone ASAP. I cannot even begin to express how kind and patient the receptionist was! They had initially told me that someone would call me back within 10 minutes after I had explained my concerns, yet after waiting 3 hours with no phone call I ended up calling back 2 more times to see what was going on. I understand how annoying this can be, especially when everyone was busy that night with larger tasks, but I was still treated with kindness which was appreciated in the stressful situation. After my third call I got a text from one of the workers (I believe?) saying they could not come by tonight but they were quick to book me in ASAP to have someone come over another day! Thankfully Tuesday morning was free and we were happy to wait. I recieved a call the day before to confirm my appointment and a call the morning of to inform me that the plumber was on their way over / when to expect them by. The communication was excellent! The individual who worked with me today was a blessing! He showed up on time and had a bright personality which helped to relieve my stress. Not only did he do a fantastic job with fixing our toilet, but he took the time to explain/show me what the problem was and how he went about fixing it. There was no need to second guess his work, it spoke for itself! Everything was VERY clean, professional and he was able to help me with a couple extra things he noticed after inspecting the two bathrooms. Every step of the way he kept me informed about cost and didn't pressure me once to try and get more work done. Having the chance to have that conversation and being able to make the call on what to do was great! I was happy to get the additional work done and am beyond pleased with how much better everything is working. The difference is night and day! Thank you so much for providing an excellent service! I will be sure to give you guys a call again should anything come up and will be happy to recommend you to any friends/family looking to have some work done :)

Our Filed Technician Jas Saran was extremely friendly upon his arrival. He was fast and efficient and was able to complete the task in under 10 minutes. Not only did he fix the blockage from our sink, but he also helped with cleaning up! I couldn't have asked for a better technician to come. Definitely going to request for him in the future if we have any problems.

What you can expect to pay for septic tank pumping hinges on the location of your septic system and the professional septic tank pumping team you hire for the job. If you have a small septic tank, you can pay less to have it pumped than someone with a large tank because there is typically less waste to remove. If you book regular septic tank pumping services, you may find that having less waste to pump makes your service more cost-effective — depending on the service provider. The condition of your tank, where it’s located on your property, and if you’ve opted for other related services like septic tank inspection services all contribute to your septic tank pumping bill.
-
Your situation and septic tank differ from other people’s, so your recommended timeframe will be different from other property owners. Various factors contribute to septic tank pumping frequency, such as the size of your family or business, your tank’s size, the climate where your tank is installed, and if you use a garburator. Twice-yearly septic tank pumping is quite common for large families with small tanks compared to less frequent three-to-five-year pumping for small families with large tanks. Don’t worry if you don’t know how often you should pump your septic tank — a local service provider can provide recommendations based on your situation.
-
Booking septic tank pumping with a trusted professional is a good idea if you’re using your shower, toilet, and sink in your home and they’re making gurgling sounds. Knowing you have a full septic tank can be as straightforward as seeing that your toilets and drains are no longer flushing and sewage is now backing up into your property. Water pooling on a property can mean that a septic tank is full and leaking sewage onto your property, or it can mean that a pipe connecting to your tank is broken. Unusually vigorous grass growth can signal a leak in your septic tank, as raw sewage contains nutrients that can foster excessive vegetation and cause soil contamination.
-
Perform thorough research on local septic tank pumping providers to make an informed decision for a quality service. Many highly regarded septic tank pumping service providers publish their contact information online, so use search engines and browse business directories to find a professional to help you. When the time comes to request septic tank pumping services, ask friends, family members, and even neighbours and colleagues for their recommendations. If you’re a regular visitor to home improvement stores, ask staff members if they know of any septic tank service professionals they would recommend.
-
You can schedule septic tank pumping services with a licensed and insured septic tank pumping service professional you trust at any time of the year. Winter can present challenges like hard and frozen ground and difficult-to-access septic tanks, so you may want to avoid booking your service during this time. Septic tank pumping professionals are always busy over the warmer months, so don’t forget to book your service in advance to enjoy a booking slot that works for your unique needs. Severe weather events like heavy rain may impact your septic tank pumping experience, so book your service with trusted professionals to coincide with better weather forecasts.
-
If you don’t have experience or the right septic tank pumping equipment to pump your own tank, a ‘DIY’ approach to septic tank pumping is not advisable. Most septic tank pumping service providers take care of septic tank pumping with advanced gear like vacuum trucks, hoses, and pumps, as well as safety equipment for peace of mind. Property owners don’t typically know as much about septic tank pumping as professional service providers, such as efficient waste removal and disposal techniques and how your septic system works. There may be a legal requirement in your province to use a trusted septic tank pump company on a set schedule and provide proof to your municipality.
-
Many Canadian properties have traditional septic systems, consisting of a septic tank and drain field, which need to be routinely pumped for effective wastewater treatment. Even if your advanced chamber septic system is more efficient than a traditional system, you still need to contact plumbing service providers for routine septic pumping. Advanced secondary treatment septic systems are reasonably common on smaller lots and properties with uneven terrain and challenging soils and require regular maintenance, including pumping. If you aren’t sure how your septic system works, contact your local septic tank pumping business to ask whether yours needs to be pumped.
-
In the areas of Canada where municipal sewers aren’t available, often rurally, property owners install septic systems with various components that handle wastewater on their own properties. Septic systems are reasonably complex in that they can collect your wastewater, remove pollutants, separate out the solids, and send treated sewage back into your property’s soil or the environment. The main drainage pipe leading from your property to your septic system carries blackwater from your toilet and greywater from appliances and fixtures like sinks, showers, baths, washing machines, and dishwashers. After septic systems treat wastewater and eliminate impurities like bacteria and parasites, the water is distributed into the soil, transforming into groundwater before flowing into streams, lakes, and rivers.
-
If you don’t schedule regular septic tank pumping services with a trusted professional, you are at risk of dealing with unpleasant blockages and overflowing sewage relating to your septic tank. If you don’t book septic tank pumping services regularly, solids can overflow from your tank and contaminate your groundwater and soil with disease-causing viruses, bacteria, and protozoa. If your septic tank isn’t pumped regularly, solids can fill the available space, leaving little room for wastewater and increasing the risk of system failure when it can’t function as it should. A strong, sewage-like odour on your property can indicate that your septic tank requires emptying and suggests there could be underlying issues with the system.
-
Many septic tank lids are made of black or green plastic or concrete, so look out for these materials on your property, measuring around 60 cm wide. When you purchase a house, you often receive a property diagram with the septic tank identified on it — refer to this diagram to find your septic tank quickly. Some septic tank lids can be hidden under grass and dirt, so insert a probe into the ground around your property until you tap against something hard that could possibly be your lid. Contact a septic tank pumping company for help locating your septic tank lid since they have access to convenient tools and equipment that can speed up the process.
