How long does a drain pipe repair take?
The duration of a drain pipe repair can vary depending on the type of repair needed and the extent of the damage.

Here are some estimated timeframes for common drain pipe repairs:
1
Removing clogs
A plumber can usually remove a clog in a drain pipe within
a few hours, depending on the severity of the clog and the
method used to remove it.
2
Patching leaks
Patching a leak in a drain pipe can usually be done within
a few hours, depending on the location and accessibility
of the leak.
3
Replacing damaged sections
Replacing a section of a drain pipe can take anywhere from
a few hours to a full day or more, depending on the length
of the section and the type of pipe used.
4
Replacing the entire system
Replacing the entire drain pipe system can take several
days to a week or more, depending on the size of the
system and the complexity of the installation.
3 Solutions for Any Drain Problem
Drain Snaking
Armed with the most recent tools, including electric drain augers, or “snakes”, our technicians are best equipped to handle, clear, and remove any blockages in sewers and drain pipes.
- Toilet clogs
- Kitchen clogs
- Shower & Tub clogs
- Pump chambers & lines
- Tree Roots in drain pipes
- Drain & Sewer Backups
- All types of residential and commercial drains
Hydro Jet Flushing
Sometimes sewer pipes can be extremely clogged by grease, debris or even root systems that have invaded your lines. In such circumstances, we use hydro jetting to get your plumbing free of blockages that traditional techniques can not clear.
- Hydrowater Jetting Service
- High-powered streams of water - up to 3,500 psi
- Very effective in scrubbing piping completely clear of sand, dirt, grease, roots, and various debris
- Much safer for your drain pipes, and also much more thorough vs drain snaking
Drain Replacement?
In an unfortunate event of a collapsed pipe, a pipe that has been torn apart by roots, or one that has been blocked solid by years of calcium build up - a drain replacement may be necessary. We provide high quality, reasonably priced drain replacement and repairs and can help you properly solve your drain problem.
- Partial or Full Line replacements
- Negative Slope Repairs
- Drain Camera Inspections for accurate diagnostics
- Warranty
Impact on Property Values
A reliable, properly functioning drain system prevents serious issues like flooding, unpleasant odors, and structural damage—factors that can decrease a property’s worth.

Some of Our Drain Repair Projects
How much does a drain pipe repair cost?
The cost of a drain pipe repair can vary depending on several factors such as the extent of the damage, the location of the pipe, and the type of repair needed.
Frequently Asked Questions:
A drain pipe repair is a process of fixing or replacing a
damaged or faulty drain pipe that is causing problems in a
plumbing system. Drain pipes are responsible for transporting
wastewater and sewage away from your home to the municipal
sewer system. When a drain pipe becomes damaged or clogged, it
can lead to problems such as slow draining, backups, and foul
odors.
Drain pipe repairs can range from simple fixes such as removing a clog, to more complex repairs such as replacing a section of the pipe or the entire pipe system. Some common drain pipe repairs include:
Removing clogs: A plumber may use a drain snake or hydro jetting to remove clogs and blockages from a drain pipe.
Patching leaks: If there is a small leak in a drain pipe, a plumber may be able to patch the area with a specialized sealant or epoxy.
Replacing damaged sections: If a section of the drain pipe is damaged beyond repair, a plumber may need to replace the section with a new pipe.
Replacing the entire system: In some cases, the entire drain pipe system may need to be replaced if it is old or severely damaged.
It's important to have a professional plumber assess and repair any drain pipe issues to ensure that the repair is done properly and to prevent future problems.

Recent Reviews
Used Canadian Rooter for a drain repair and a slight waterproofing issue. Their pricing was reasonable but most importantly the quality of work was great. The communication was also very clear and we were advised of everything that was happening while the work was in progress.
Kate Kotrenko
Canadian Rooter is a fast, efficient plumbing service that was willing to answer all of my questions prior to coming out and replacing my leaky facet . The plumber, Vlad was professional and so was his assistant. All in all, a timely and easy plumbing repair experience.
Gm
I called Canadian Rooter to repair a non-working faucet and a leaky shower. Nick came to handle the job and was amazing: professional, courteous, and fixed everything that same day. I will ask for Nick for my future plumbing needs.
Lauren
While staying at my daughter's home in Toronto to babysit my 2 young granddaughters, I was unlucky enough to have to deal with a leak underneath the kitchen sink while I was there. Fortunately, I found Canadian Rooter online and gave them a call. Not only did I speak with a wonderful young lady on the phone initially, but she called me back within minutes to let me know that a plumber would be there within the hour. Also, after that, the plumber called me to let me know when he would be there. Soon afterwards, he arrived. He was very courteous and polite and initially reviewed the cost of the work before making any repairs which I appreciated. He was the nicest plumber I have ever met and was eager to answer all questions that I had about other areas of the home. He was very helpful and I would not hesitate to use them again the next time I am in Toronto. In fact, I left my daughter that very message and also let her know she can ask for this particular plumber by name (I believe his name was Paul). Thank you for 'coming to my rescue' and preventing what could have been a worse mess later on.
Susan
My shower wasnt working and I needed repair quickly. When I called, they sent someone immediately. They are the best. Fast, efficient and clean. I am very pleased with their service.
Esther
I got leakage underneath the sink which needed immediate repair, Canadian Rooter were very quick to respond, fixed the problem by changing some pipes, were very friendly, and were on their way. I thought the price was great for such a job and outstanding service and I got a full warranty! Sink is not leaking anymore everything seems great so I am very pleased!
Anton
Since we bought our home in 2015, our basement was subjected to the horrific smell of sewer gas every time it rained. We called several plumbers who had no idea what the problem was and wasted time and in some cases charged fees despite accomplishing nothing. We found Nazar from Canadian Rooter who correctly assessed the problem (a cracked drain pipe) in literally 10 seconds. He made a fair estimate, booked a repair date and after 3 hours of work the problem was solved. His crew was efficient and professional and I would definitely hire them again for any future work. Highly recommended!
David
Canadian Rooter was quick to respond to my request and showed up the next day. The plumber was knowledgeable and repaired the toilet workings within the hour. He was courteous and polite. I am very satisfied with the quality of work and the price charged. I already recommended them to a neighbour.
Steven
CANADIAN ROOTER SAVED MY LIFE! My Hose Bib started leaking right at the dinner party, Phil came out right away after i called. He assessed the situation and repaired it quickly! Definitely my go to plumbers now. I highly recommend this company.
Mike
Tree roots were blocking my drainage but the relatively old house meant that the pipes weren't accessible by a regular plumber nor the City. Canadian Rooter did an excellent job at diagnosis and repair to get the drainage working again. It was a major task requiring drilling to install a new pipe and subsequent repair. I especially appreciated the quality of service. Every commitment (date/time of appointments, clean-up, etc.) was met, I was consistently kept informed, the crew arrived extra early on a Friday morning to fill the hole to let me get my car out of the garage, worksite was cleaned up, in addition to fixing the core problem. While I hope not to have to use such services in the future :)) I certainly would call Canadian Rooter again and/or refer them to neighbours and friends.
Joan
I had a problem with a drain repair outside. I called a few plumbing companies and their prices were sky-high. A good friend of mine recommended to call Canadian Rooter. I contacted Canadian Rooter and they send their employee within an hour to estimate the damage. The guy named Borys inspected the pipe with his camera and identified the problem section of pipe right away. Borys explained that it's very common for tree roots to wedge their way into pipes. He returned with his team the next morning and repaired the busted pipes. I had to work the day of the repair. Canadian Rooter called me and advised what they would do next and then they called again once the job was complete. I hope I never need a plumber again but if I do, I'll definitely call Canadian Rooter. I am very pleased with the service and the very fair pricing. Thanks Canadian Rooter and your team for your hard work!
Iryna
There were several plumbing issues in my home that I had been putting off repairing because I didn't know who to call. Finally, I called Canadian Rooter and Phil came out to give an estimate and repair the problems. Phil was skilled, polite and professional, his estimate was accurate and all the work was well done. I am extremely satisfied.
Customer of Canadian Rooter
Nick arrived ahead of schedule. Diagnosed the problem and had it repaired in under an hour. He had to cut out some sheet rock from the ceiling below this bathroom to expose the problem, but we're delighted to have this fixed. I highly recommend Nick and Canadian Rooter!
Justin
We have used Canadian Rooter a few times in the past and they have always done great job. Naz and his team are professional, responsive, knowledgeable and fairly priced. Our last issue - sewer line repair and they repaired it very quickly. Will definitely contact them again for future plumbing needs.
Bohdan
Paul from Canadian Rooter did an excellent job of repairing a leaking pipe in our bathroom. His soldering work was excellent, he was polite and pleasant to have in the house and cleaned up before leaving.
Mya and Markus
We had a blockage in our main drain where it leaves the house. We called Canadian Rooter and they had a technician here in about an hour. He diagnosed the issue, wrote us a very satisfactory estimate, had to go away to get a part, returned quickly and had the problem solved in less than another hour. His repairs included an access to allow clearing any subsequent blockages without the need for additional parts. He was friendly and courteous, explained the problem and the required work, outlined the costs in detail and thoroughly cleaned up after his work. We were very satisfied in our experience with Canadian Rooter. If we had another plumbing problem, we'd call them again in an instant and we sincerely recommend them.
Jim
We've used Canadian Rooter on 3 occasions now and every time they come out they are consistently fantastic. One of the visits included digging and repairing the main drain which was handled by Mike and his team. They were incredibly efficient, tarped off all areas, and made sure all dirt and dust was cleaned up afterward. Our recent work was handled by Nick who fixed up a garage bathroom, installing a laundry tub and toilet plus replacing a faucet that was causing water pressure problems in an upstairs kitchen. Again, he was very efficient, pleasant to deal with, and everything is working perfectly. We will definitely continue to use Canadian Rooter in future. Thanks again!
Carol
Canadian Rooter did an excellent job repairing the drains inside and outside my house. They came promptly, helped me with the paperwork with the City, gave a fair price, and were neat, clean and quiet doing the job. Now my neighbor is going to use them.
Margaret
Outstanding work and conscientious service from Naz, Andriy and their hard-working crew. They diagnosed the problem, repaired it, and cleaned the area thoroughly.
