Midtown Plumbing clears blocked and slow drains throughout Etobicoke — kitchen, bathroom, and main sewer lines. Written quote before work starts. The price we quote is the price you pay — it never changes.
Midtown Plumbing provides same-day drain cleaning throughout Etobicoke, available 7 days a week from 7 AM to 9 PM. We provide a written quote after the camera inspection — that price is locked in before any work begins and does not change, regardless of how long the job takes.
Etobicoke's older lakeside communities — Long Branch, Mimico, and New Toronto — have drain infrastructure that in many cases has never been replaced since these neighbourhoods were built in the 1920s through 1950s. Further north, the mid-century bungalow belts in Alderwood, Islington, and Rexdale bring 1960s and 70s cast iron and galvanized systems. Across all these eras, the common thread is aging infrastructure that tends to produce recurring drain problems. The written quote before any work starts means you know the full cost before we pick up a tool — and that price doesn't change once we're in the job. Call 647-778-9411 — most Etobicoke calls are on-site within 3–5 hours.
Professional drain cleaning removes the blockage — not just moves it. We use electric augers for solid blockages and hydro-jetting for grease, mineral scale, and root masses that snaking won't clear. Every job starts with a camera inspection so you see what's in the line before we quote. The written quote is based on the camera findings — not an hourly estimate that climbs once the work is underway.
In Etobicoke, common causes are grease buildup in kitchen drains (particularly in the older cast iron kitchen drain lines in pre-1950s homes), hair and soap scum in bathroom lines, and tree root intrusion in main sewer lines throughout the mid-century bungalow belt. The lakeside communities — Long Branch and Mimico — sometimes still have pre-war clay pipe sections in the main line, which require careful camera assessment before any high-pressure clearing method is used.
Water draining slowly or gurgling from nearby fixtures when a drain is used — both signal a partial blockage building in the line.
When more than one drain is slow or backed up simultaneously, the blockage is in the main sewer line — not individual fixture traps.
A persistent sewage smell — especially from floor drains or lower-level fixtures — indicates a blockage or dried trap letting sewer gas back into the home.
Flushing the toilet and seeing water rise in the shower, or running the dishwasher and watching the kitchen sink back up — main sewer line warning signs.
A drain that blocks every few weeks despite clearing usually means root intrusion, pipe scale, or a damaged pipe section — camera diagnosis required to resolve properly.
The basement floor drain is the lowest point in the system. When it backs up, the entire main line is blocked. Call immediately and shut off the water to the house.
The quote we provide after the camera inspection is the price you pay — locked in before work starts. It does not change based on time, complexity, or how long the job runs. No hourly meter.
Every truck carries a drain camera. We put it in the line and show you the footage before recommending anything. You see what's blocking the drain before approving any work.
Every drain job is performed by a licensed and insured master plumber — not a subcontractor. License number T95-4304136, Skilled Trades Ontario.
Available Monday through Sunday, 7 AM to 9 PM. Most Etobicoke calls get a plumber on-site within 3–5 hours. We give you an honest arrival window when you call.
Auger equipment, hydro-jet nozzles, camera gear, and common parts are all on board. Most Etobicoke drain jobs are completed in a single visit — no return trip for equipment.
Call 647-778-9411 or fill out the form above. We confirm availability and give you an honest arrival window — usually 3–5 hours for Etobicoke addresses.
We insert the drain camera before touching anything else. You see the footage alongside us — grease, roots, pipe damage, or a simple soft blockage. No guessing.
Based on what the camera finds, we provide a written price. That price is locked in — it does not change once work begins. You approve it or you don't. No pressure.
We clear the drain using the right tool for the blockage type. A camera check after clearing confirms full flow is restored. We clean up before leaving.
I've utilized Andrew's plumbing services many times. He's the only plumber I trust. He's knowledgeable, extremely professional, very thorough, explains the issue and provides advice on maintenance and prevention. He double-checks his work and always cleans up after himself. Thank you Andrew.
Both kitchen and bathroom sinks had issues. The bathroom had a faulty seizing faucet that was replaced, and in the kitchen Andrew identified the cause of a drainage pipe coming loose — reattaching it with supports to prevent the issue recurring. Andrew's service was quick, clean, and professional.
I had a great experience with Andrew. He responded immediately and arrived promptly. Instead of pushing a quick install, he took the time to explain the better long-term option. His advice was honest, practical, and clearly in my best interest. Knowledgeable, professional, and very easy to deal with. Highly recommend.
Etobicoke's lakeside communities — Long Branch, Mimico, and New Toronto along the Lake Ontario waterfront — are among the oldest residential areas in what is now the City of Toronto. Homes in these neighbourhoods date to the 1910s through 1950s, and in many cases their drain infrastructure has never been replaced. Pre-war homes in these areas often have clay drain lines in the main sewer run — clay pipe joints separate over decades, allowing root intrusion, and sections crack under the pressure of settled soil. Cast iron interior drains from the same era are heavily corroded. Camera assessment before any clearing is essential in these properties: aggressive high-pressure jetting on a compromised clay line can cause the very damage it's trying to clear.
The mid-century bungalow belt running through Alderwood, Islington Village, and the residential streets in central Etobicoke — homes built through the 1950s, 60s, and 70s — represents the most common housing era we serve in this area. These homes have cast iron drains and galvanized supply lines that are 50 to 70 years old. Galvanized supply corrodes from the inside, reducing pipe diameter and leaving loose rust particles that contribute to drain clogs; cast iron drain walls roughen and narrow over time. Root intrusion in the main sewer lines under lawns with 50-year-old trees is a leading cause of recurrent main line blockages in this area.
Etobicoke's Lakeshore corridor and Rexdale area have seen significant condo and townhouse development over the past two decades. These newer properties have modern ABS and PEX systems, but shared drain stacks in condo buildings and long horizontal runs in townhouse configurations can develop blockages that building management's stack cleaning doesn't address. We handle in-unit drain work in Etobicoke's multi-unit buildings. Call 647-778-9411 and let us know the property type when you call.
