Report
I contacted Best Plumbing and Drainage Contractors in late summer 2020 to provide a quote for some drainage issues we had in our backyard. Shawn was able to come and provide a quote with a plan on how to add drainage to the yard with catch basins to provide drainage in the winter months. They were able to come and complete the work in late 2020. A year later, we have had no drainage issues and the small pond we used to get after rain no longer exists. I strongly recommend Best Contractors for their amazing work and also great support. Shawn is very knowledgeable and is a business owner who really

Terrible drivers on the road. One of your trucks Nissan with rusty topper just blew past me going atleast 100km/h on Wellington by Victoria hospital weaving in and out of traffic, I get it they need to be somewhere but why at that rate of speed.

We had an excellent experience with Best Drainage. When we moved into our new house we noticed a drainage issue in the front and back yard. Shawn promptly came out for the estimate and responded quickly with a very cost effective quote for our drainage problems. They scheduled the work within a couple weeks and kept me updated. When they came Tyler and all the guys and were very informative, efficient, considerate and completed the work fully while cleaning everything up perfectly. Shawn called me afterwards to check up on everything to make sure we were fully satisfied! We highly recommend Best

I highly recommend Best Contracting. We replaced our old sewer line and water line in advance of the the city doing the same on our street this year. Also took the opportunity to waterproof as the area was exposed.
Dealing with Shawn throughout our project was great. The project started and finished on time. He always promptly returned calls and messages. The crew doing the work, Tyler and Colin, were a pleasure to work with, very professional and efficient. They are the "Best".
