“We were really pleased with Shawn’s (of Ottawa Safari Plumbing’s) customer service today. He was very courteous and professional. He asked about our needs (such as which door to use if we needed water before he shut off the water before turning it off) and made sure I understood each step and the cost.

When he went out to the vehicle to fetch something, my friend who was visiting at the time immediately said, “Wow, he is so polite!” I was confident in his skill level, and he emits a calm and pleasant nature. The installation of a new hose tap appears to have been done very properly.” – Stephen de Boer

“Tyler showed up at my house to clear a blocked drain in my basement. Instead of simply clearing the blockage and leaving, he took the time to map out my whole drainage system to make sure we both understood how it was all connected.

He showed me everything on his camera system which was really interesting and educational for me since I only moved into my house less than 2 years ago.

In addition to clearing the blockage, he shredded some tree roots, and cleaned the insides of some of the older pipes in the system, thus ensuring I won’t have any future blockages anytime soon.” – Ian Colwell

“Dan and his staff were a pleasure to work with and always maintained a professional, orderly, and clean appearance. Even the gas inspector documented the installation with photos so that he could use it as a model for how a boiler should be installed properly.

I’ve been remodelling an old house from the 19th century and wanted to maintain the original radiators while giving it a more industrial look. Dan did a fantastic job of achieving the appearance I was going for and blending the new and vintage radiators. I’m thrilled with the outcome.” – Adam Smith

Protecting Ottawa Plumbing System in Extreme Winter Cold Snaps

Ottawa’s winters may be severe, making it essential to safeguard your plumbing when it becomes really cold. Here are some measures to protect your plumbing system:

• Insulate exposed pipes, especially those in unheated areas.
• To keep the water running on really cold nights, let the faucets drip a little.
• Keep the temperature steady, even while you’re not home.
• Think about adding pipe insulation or heat tape for further safety.

These safety measures can help in avoiding frozen pipes and potential damage in Ottawa during cold spells.
