1. What is a boiler condensate pipe, and how do I check for problems?

A frozen boiler condensate pipe can become a big problem when the temperature dips below freezing outside. Suppose your heating system makes a gurgling noise, and the boiler turns off. In that case, your system may be experiencing a failsafe mechanism to keep water from flowing backward and into the boiler system, which can cause serious electrical damage. You can look for the plastic pipe running outside from your boiler. If you think it’s frozen, try pouring warm water—never boiled water—down the pipe to thaw it. If you think the pipe has been unfrozen, reset the boiler and see if it works. Feel free to call Dr. Pipe if you’re uncertain about this test or unable to perform the check.

2. What to do if you have burst pipe in Toronto?

Turn off the water and call Dr. Pipe. When a pipe bursts, always turn off the water supply and call the plumbing professionals at Dr. Pipe. It’s dangerous to touch electric parts exposed to water, so always turn off the system via the fuse box and switch off electric immersion heaters to minimize boiler damage.

3. Why I suddenly have no hot water at home in Toronto?

There are many reasons why you may not have hot water. Hot water heaters can lose power quickly. If your system is still on, check for water leaks and give Dr. Pipe a call for further assistance!

Mika

Very happy with the work that I done today to fix some issues that were causing a nuisance. Elvis did an amazing job. He was prompt, thorough, kind and explained his process in detail which I appreciate very much as a first time home owner who doesn't know a whole lot about plumbing/home repairs. Would highly recommend and I'm keeping the contact information saved in case of future needs (I hope that won't be the case) Thanks Elvis!

Response from the owner:Thank you so much, Mika, for such a great review. It was a pleasure for us to read it! Thanks for the recommendations as well.

Will Wong

Had a clog in the pipe under my kitchen sink. Elvis was very nice and informative in explaining the situation on what the issue was and how to further prevent it in the future. The service to fix the problem was quick and not a big mess. Highly recommended.

Response from the owner:Thank you for sharing your positive review. Let us know if we can help you. Sincerely, Dr. Pipe.

G Smart

I am beyond happy with the toilet replacement service done by Elvis! He was very nice, explained everything. It's an old house, so not 100% standard and required some elbow grease. He put in a great effort, not just with the replacement, but cleaning the area, and dealing with some tricky parts. The price was also very fair. I would definitely recommend or call again. Thank you, Elvis!!

Response from the owner:Thank you for the good review. Let us know if you need more plumbing work. Sincerely, Max and Elvis

Can’t say enough good things about this company. Professional, courteous, and really good at what they do. Most importantly, they do professional work for a reasonable rate, unlike most plumbers in town. Add these guys to your Rolodex and forget the rest.
