Frozen pipes

On the coldest day, we were able to book Jeff to come see us. He was very professional, and quick to diagnose that the reason our hot water tap wasn’t working was due to a frozen pipe! He took his time to explain to us what needed to be done, and answered every single question we had. He explained what we would need to do if it didn’t thaw, and if it did thaw. We followed his directions and within a few hours had running water! He also offered valuable advice on another issue he noticed with a pipe. He didn’t push more service or money. He knew we could fix it ourselves, and therefore didn’t charge us more than the fee to assess.

Shower faucet replacement

Jeff's company kept me updated via iMessage about his arrival time and was actually earlier than stated. He quickly accessed the situation (really old faucets) and suggested two options for replacement. He got the work done as promised and returned promptly when the job needed a tweak. Jeff is professional, courteous and has a great sense of humour. We would recommend him to anyone.

Replace inside of toilet, add new shutoff

Jeff is excellent. It was a small job, replacing the inside parts of my toilet, as well as replacing the intake hose and shutoff valve.

He returned my calls promptly, was very friendly, arrived punctually, and did excellent work. I’ll call him first in the future.

Plumbing

Jeff was kind enough to come over while on another job and helped me unplug a drain.There was no way I was going to wait to have the drain unplugged the next day!I tried to snake it myself but it was really restricted.After assessing the job and told me what the course of action was, and I agreed to the job quote, he immediately went to work. Watching him work reminded me of the skilled trades people I worked with for 35 years in the Power Generation Industry.I've seen my share of pipes and the repairs that went into them.Jeff has the skills and knowledge to do the job and do it right the first time.He has the years of experience that comes with being a Master Plumber. When the job was finished, he cleaned up and checked all for leaks and everything drained well. He's coming back to do a good section of rotting cast drain/vent pipe and look forward to seeing him again. He didn't disappoint me and he won't disappoint you. Tony

Plumbing repairs

This is the second visit Jeff made to our home to do some much needed plumbing repairs and upgrades. He was very professional -- arrived punctually, provided a written estimate and explained the details before doing any work, and completed the work to our full satisfaction. Highly recommend!

Service/expertise

Jeff arrived on time and quickly diagnosed the problem. The issue was fixed in a timely manner. He also noticed another issue which could lead to more serious issues when trying to turn off my main water valve. He will be back again once I call the city to arrange the water to be shut off! He was professional, courteous and explained everything that he needed to do. I would highly recommend him to anyone in need of a plumber.

Basement Bathroom Emergency

We were expecting terrible news, but then Jeff from The Great Plumbing Co. came in, quickly diagnosed the problem and went to work. It was a game changer. We were experiencing significant leakage in our basement, but like a surgeon, Jeff checked drains, ascertained when all appliances were last used, and even estimated (to the day) how old each of the fixtures were.

Given the experiences we had previously had with plumbers, we gulped and prepared ourselves for awful news. Within a few short minutes, he determined that this was nothing more than a loose toilet with a leaky tank. He had a replacement in his truck ready to go. I realized we needed another toilet replaced too, and he quickly made a few calls and picked the second one up shortly thereafter.

Had I gone to Home Depot to purchase these units, and then call a handyman to install, it would have cost me significantly more. He did both jobs at the snap of a finger at a cost that made us smile.

Additionally, Jeff is probably the best in his trade at using technology. Courteous people receiving the call, and a mobile app giving particulars on job details and location. Looking for one of the best professionals in the trade? Look no further than The Great Plumbing Co.
