Emergency Plumbing
Our certified technicians provide round-the-clock emergency plumbing services for burst pipes, sewer backups, and gas leaks. With rapid response times across Ottawa, we resolve critical issues without after-hours charges. Our team uses advanced diagnostic tools to identify problems quickly, ensuring minimal property damage while maintaining safety standards. All emergency repairs come with our standard 2-year warranty.
Water Heater Installation
We specialize in installing and repairing gas, electric, and tankless water heating systems. Our technicians assess home requirements to recommend energy-efficient models that reduce utility costs. We handle permits and inspections for new installations, ensuring compliance with local building codes. Regular maintenance services extend system lifespan and prevent unexpected failures.
Drain Cleaning
Using hydro jetting and camera inspections, we clear stubborn drain blockages in residential and commercial properties. Our methods remove buildup from grease, hair, and foreign objects while identifying underlying pipe issues. We offer preventative maintenance plans to avoid recurring clogs, with specialized solutions for kitchen, bathroom, and main sewer lines.
Sump Pump Services
We install, repair, and maintain sump pumps to prevent basement flooding during heavy rains. Our technicians test pump functionality, check discharge lines, and recommend battery backups for uninterrupted operation. Annual inspections ensure reliable performance, while emergency services address sudden pump failures with same-day repairs.
Gas Line Repairs
TSSA-certified technicians handle gas line installations, repairs, and leak detection for residential and commercial properties. We service gas appliances, BBQ hookups, and heating systems while maintaining strict safety protocols. Carbon monoxide testing and pressure checks ensure system integrity, with emergency response available for gas-related emergencies.

We have employed John The Plumber on three occasions. For all three calls (faucet installations x 2 and unclog drain), the technicians did a great job. They were on-time, organized, knowledgeable, and completed the jobs quickly with great quality workmanship. The prices are reasonable as we had professional technicians come help us. Shout out to Geoff, Garrett and Dawson for this latest job. The crew also comfortably managed dealing with our two chaotic but friendly pups, massive thanks! David and Krista

I have used John The Plumber services few times. The plumber, Billy, is very knowledgeable, on time and patient to educate me on the problem.
Billy always gave me an accurate estimate and after few times working with him I totally trust his judgment. I recommend JTP and will definitely use them for future plumbing work.

You should be careful when they tell you the price of a piece that needs to be replaced. Always check the price on internet before anything. The guys told two shower cartridges must be replaced and they are $400 for both. But in reality the cartridge is less than $50 each. So it is like more than $300 overcharges. This is not different from stealing.

Bill was fantastic, he called to let me know when he would be coming and performed the required work quickly and professionally. I also appreciated his advice on what further information I would require to furnish him in order to better quote the bathroom work rather then just making a rough estimate on the spot. Highly recommend.
