The Dangers of Leaking Pipes
Although leaking pipes may not seem like an issue in need of your immediate attention, delaying repair can be hazardous. Damp spots that are left in areas that don’t get a lot of light to dry out become the perfect environment for mold to grow.
If you allow these spots to form and mold to grow, they can have some fairly severe health effects on you and your family. Exposure to mold can lead to symptoms such as a stuffy nose, wheezing, itchy/red eyes or skin. If it turns out that someone in your household is allergic to mold, the symptoms can be much more intense.

- Floors, ceilings and/or walls are stained and water damaged
- The foundation is showing cracks

Drain Pro Client Testimonials
700+ 5 Star Reviews!
We’ve had lots of work done with this company (toilet install, plugged sink, pipe leaks) and have had very positive experiences. The company is very responsive in general and easy to communicate with. We’ve usually worked directly with Slater and have found him to be efficient and professional. Would highly recommend!

Peter J.
Had a water heater installed. Axl was great. On time, pleasant and courteous and did a great job.
Anne M.
Drain Pro offered me same day service, but I had to postpone for a couple of days. When the plumber Jaeson arrived, he was very efficient. He brought the correct replacement small hot water heater for under our kitchen sink, and installed it and tested it, with excellent results. We would recommend Drain Pro.
John M.
Had our hot water heater pop a leak. Called Drain Pro and 2 hours later the Technician arrived and measured what was needed, due to our tank being in a tight spot. He was back in less than an hour and 1 hour later the new tank was in operation. These guys are fast and great to work with. Highly recommend them for any plumbing needs you might have.
Wyatt R.
This is my first time using Drain Pro Plumbing. I am very impressed with their customer service and work quality. The price they charge is very reasonable for a weekend call. I would recommend Drain Pro to everyone and will definitely use them again for my future plumbing needs.
Tony C
Had a Friday night hot water tank emergency and Drain Pro were excellent. Told us exactly what to do, scheduled a plumber who showed up on time, replaced the tank and diagnosed the underlying problem. Would recommend them and will use them again!
Steph B.
Wow! This is 5-star service at its best! We had a blocked drainage on a Sunday and were very grateful for the genuine 24-hour emergency service. DrainPro were quick to schedule an appointment and kept us updated via email until John-Michael arrived to expertly resolve the problem. Well done, everyone at DrainPro
Paul W.
Prompt response time. John-Michael Slater was polite and informative and helped us with an emergency plumbing issue. Good service
Mike & Karen P.
They really came through to fix our stopped kitchen drain when others said they could not come for a week. Amazing service and they managed to clear the clog in short order after I spent 2 days with a powered snake to no avail. Reasonable pricing too. THANKS
Scott R.
Austin was excellent. He was professional, knowledgeable and kind to my elderly mother. He fixed the original issue regarding the perimeter drain and was also able to unclog a bathtub drain in the 1 hour time frame costing my mom below what she was expecting. Will definately use them again in the future.
Lisa T.
I called Drain Pro when I had a repeat on a clogged kitchen sink. They came first thing in the morning, on time, polite, and cleaned up after themselves (in sharp contrast to another plumber). They listened carefully, replaced pipe to make sure that wasn’t causing the problem, and explained everything they had done. I highly recommend them!
Romola W.
We were impressed with the speedy service Drain Pro provided to address our clogged kitchen drain over a long weekend no less! We called late Saturday afternoon and were scheduled for a service call the following afternoon. John-Michael Slater arrived a half hour early and got right to work on the blocked kitchen drain. He located the stubborn clog 36 feet down the drainpipe, cleared the clog and had the kitchen water running within 1/2 hour! Great response to the call, excellent service provided and speedy resolution of the problem! Thank you Drain Pro team with special thanks to John-Michael Slater!!!!
Alexis W
Used Drain Pro Plumbing to inspect our sewer line which we thought was cracked. The inspection showed not only that it is indeed cracked but that it was also clogged 80 feet down the line. They unclogged the blockage, tested the line and will most likely be back to repair/replace the sewer line (once I get the estimate). They responded to our initial call promptly and sent their technician as soon as they could, preventing our small leak from becoming a bigger mess.
I would recommend them for plumbing services.
Luis L
I was most impressed with Drain Pro. They let me know when they would be here via email. Jacob was kind, courteous and very efficient. I would not hesitate to use Drain Pro again. A good plumbing company.
John W.
Will recommend Drain Pro Plumbing to anyone who is ever in need! Their employees are prompt, professional, and go above and beyond anything you would expect. Axl took the time to explain potential plumbing issues he saw while he was reinstalling my toilet and sink post emergency renovation. It was refreshing to be informed and educated on the work that was being done. Last but not least, the attention to covid protocol was impeccable! Thank you!
Aly Y.
Profession service, phenomenal tips on how to stop it from happening and came in with tools needed. This company makes 100% logical sense! Highly recommend Drain Pro Plumbing and was please with their service.
Casey T.
Easiest water tank change over ever! Thank you.
Wendy W.
Jacob was quick and efficient and gave good advice to avoid another blockage.
Robert H.
John worked very hard to solve our drain blockage. We have an old house and the plumbing is unconventional but he persisted and was able to clear it.
Ken R.
They arrived on time and very quickly installed our toilets, taps, and clink drains. We would call them again if needed.
Kevin M.
“I called 4 plumbers on a Friday afternoon, Drain Pro were the only ones to call me back. This is the third time we have used them and each time they have come quickly and done a great job.”
Julia D.
I woke up on a weekend morning discovering a water pipe leak in my washroom. I called another plumbing company’s 24hr emergency line twice, but was not able to get a hold of anyone. I then called Drain Pro’s 24hr Victoria line, someone answered my call immediately, advised me to turn water switch off, and dispatched a repair job for the afternoon. After I hung up the phone call, I got an email confirming that a repair job has been dispatched.
Dustin showed up in the afternoon and was very professional. He identified the leak in the first few minutes and explained what he is going to do. He went to home depot to get some parts and came back within 10 minutes. He then fixed the leak within 20 minutes. This is my first time using Drain Pro Plumbing. I am very impressed with their customer service and work quality. The price they charge is very reasonable for a weekend call. I would recommend Drain Pro to everyone and will definitely use them again for my future plumbing needs.
Tony C.
“Did a great job and taught a dinosaur a new trick so an outside tap does not need internal shutoff for the winter. Will always call these guys!”
Sandi J.
“My kitchen sink water pipe was leaking in my condo unit so I decided to call a plumber. Drain Pro picked up my call immediately and schedule an appointment. Dustin was very professional and identified the problem within minutes. He explained to us what he was doing and was very patient when we asked him questions. This is my first time getting a plumber and I would highly recommend Drain Pro. Very happy with their service and we will definitely come back again if we encounter any other plumbing issues in the future.”

I have nothing but high regard for this company and would highly recommend them to anyone who wants a high quality job done.”

We needed 2 sinks and 2 toilets replaced urgently. We had them installed within 2 days. Plus when onsite the tech fixed a problem with our dishwasher base.
Thank you.

“Very knowledgeable and came on a Sunday.”
Steve C.
“We had John MacDonald doing a service call and troubleshooting our basement shower with back-up. John was very professional and helpful. He was able to solve our issue and provide some very helpful tips. Thank you!”
Tung S.
“Over the years our strata has used Drain Pro for major work on our property as well as individual owners have hired this company for work inside their units. We required some bathroom work a few days ago and Drain Pro sent a plumber by the name of Dustin. Dustin was very friendly, extremely competent and he went out of his way to ensure the work was 100% perfect. He also did a wonderful job of cleaning up after the jobs were completed. Dustin was more than willing to answer all our questions and explain the work as he proceeded. 10 out of 10 rating for his excellent work from start to finish. Many thanks Dustin. We finally have a beautiful working bathroom.”
Dave G.
“The Drain Pro crew were excellent. They dug up our perimeter drains that were in poor shape causing water leakage. They quickly installed new drains and did an excellent job. The day they finished there was a monsoon of rain and not a drop inside! Thanks Drain Pro!”
Len M.
“I sent an email about a leaking water heater in the evening, received a phone call within 15 minutes. Price for a new heater installed right up front, showed up exactly on time requested the next morning. Have also used them to unplug a root bound sewer line last winter. Again fast response, good work. And nice folks all around!”
Craig M.
“The repair person came on time and was really professional. He gave me great recommendations and advice and was not pushy. He was very flexible with how the work was done so as to meet my needs and not cause a lot of mess in out house. He was very quick and explained the science of how things worked so that I knew what he was doing.”
Terry O.
“Jaeson was really fantastic in my emergency flood situation and came up with a solution to tie me over until the repair can be done.”
Liza D.
“We have additional work to do however we know that we will be able to rely on Drain Pro to help us. John showed up on time very personable and he explained what he was going to do what the results might be and let us know that we would be able to work together to get a solution. This company came highly recommended and we can see why they are very professional and we would recommend them to anyone.”
Don R.
“I called in the morning to schedule a plumber, who then showed up on time that afternoon to fix a low pressure problem. The job was done efficiently, no mess, and we’re back to normal, COVID excepted of course. Pleased to learn our plumber is also a gas fitter which will come in handy when we add gas service for our patio barbecue, etc. Thanks again.”
Bob C.
“Needed some water lines and drainage pipes capped off before a cabinet install. Kevin showed up on time (even a bit early), was very professional and friendly, and performed the work quickly. A great job.”
Kent V.
“Fast and reliable. I had an emergency plumbing issue Friday afternoon and googled for emergency plumber. Multiple names come up but they don’t help. I called Drain Pro and they came and fixed temporarily until another time finished the job. Thank you.”
Amin S.
“Our plumber Alex was on time , quick and efficient! He quickly realized the problem and fixed it ! He cleaned up as he went along so I only had to replace what was in my cupboard. His being respectful and reassuring went a long way! I would certainly recommend this company and staff!!”
Dave G.
“Got a call within an hour or so, and they were able to service my shower the same day. Friendly service that fixed the job quickly and effectively. Would recommend.”
Ryan B.
“Drain Pro did a great job of fixing my clogged toilet, explained everything he was doing and told me how I could prevent it from happening again. I was impressed that he offered to look at any other plumbing issues that I might have as I was paying for a one hour call. He did a great job and was very pleasant.”
Janet C.
“We had a respectful, hardworking man come and work on a very troubling plugged drain. He worked hard to make sure I could use my sink and I really appreciated his diligence and work. Have used them in the past and will most definitely use them again. Thanks!”
Meagan B.
“I made an appointment to have our condos drains checked with a camera. Jason the plumber arrived early and started right away. He had all the drains inspected quickly. Gave a detailed description of any sediment and suggested what should be done but that we were good for a while yet, no pressure to hurry. Will definitely have them back when the time comes.”

Frequently Asked Questions
Just like there are many causes for a water line to break, so too are there many reasons for which your pipes might leak. Leaks are common in plumbing systems which are old and outdated. Older systems and pipes often suffer corrosion or warping which can cause leaks. Defective or poorly installed pipes are also very prone to leaking as shoddy plumbing workmanship can cause significant and expensive damage to your system. Your home’s pipes might also leak if the valves were poorly maintained or suffered damage. If you are experiencing leaking pipes, don’t wait until it’s too late – call Drain Pro Plumbing right away!
Leaking pipes are sometimes tough to spot, and can go on leaking for days, months, or longer without anybody noticing. This can not only cause significant damage to your home, it also represents a pretty big waste of water – and money. Be on the lookout for the following signs that your pipes are leaking:
-
- Unexpected increases in water bills:Generally speaking, water bills remain more or less consistent with some changes depending on the season, number of occupants, and a few other factors. That being said, if your jaw drops to the floor when you open your water bill and you can’t remember a reason why it is so high, there’s a pretty good chance you have a leaking pipe somewhere.
- Check your water meter:Your water meter can help you understand whether or not your pipes are leaking water. Turn off all your faucets, make sure your appliances that consume water such as the dishwasher and washing machine are not running, and then go watch your water meter. It should not change, so if it does odds are you have a leak.
- Mold or mildew on walls:There’s nothing mold and mildew love more than dark, moist environments. If your pipes are leaking behind your walls, it is likely that area will become a breeding ground for mold and mildew, especially if it is on a non-shower wall.
- Sagging, stained, or damaged walls, ceilings, and flooring When there is an excess of moisture in your walls, ceiling, or floor, it can cause damage such as water stains, bubbling, or sagging. If you notice this in your home, there’s a good change you have a leaking pipe somewhere.
- A noticeable musty smellWhen old water accumulates, it often smells musty no matter how hard you try to clean the area. If you clean your bathroom or any other room and it continues to have a musty smell, there’s a good chance that water has accumulated there.
The consequences of having leaky pipes can be very serious and should not be taken lightly. If you suspect that there is a leak in your home, call Drain Pro Victoria right away. Fixing the problem today can save a lot of time, energy, and money tomorrow.
Replace sections of your pipes when you notice they become corroded. Also, avoid crowding cabinets that have exposed pipes. For instance, it is common for people to store household cleaning supplies under sinks. If there are too many items, they could be applying pressure on your pipes, which could cause them to start leaking.
Contact us if you have any more questions about leaking pipes or system maintenance.
Leaking pipes may not present an immediate danger as some plumbing emergencies do. However, leaking pipes can cause some serious damage if left alone. Leaks can become larger over time, cause major water damage and promote the growth of mold.
