I was having trouble shutting of my laundry faucet for a while, and after forcing it too much I probably caused the mechanism to finally break down and what it was just a leak turned out to be a lot of water running unstoppable. It was night so I had to shut my main water off. The next day I called several plumbers, some didn't answer the phone, some charged me to come to my house and make a quote, another that I sent pictures never called me back. When I called this company I was answered right away by a lady called Tania, whom I briefly explained the situation, and she made sure to get any available plumber to call me back. Ten minutes later Phil called me aware of my problem and told that he would be in my house in less than 45 minutes. 30 minutes later he got to my house and explained everything needed to be done (basically cut off the old faucet, solder the new one and reconnect the primer line), how much it was gonna cost, very polite, professional and positive manner, and to my surprise their price was better than their competitor, a couple dollars less. I had no doubt and signed the contract right away. Phil did everything in one hour and let everything spotless and the most important: a functional, easy to shut off faucet. He also gave me a document for a one year warranty of service. I will sure recommend Phil and Canadian Rooter.

Had a wonderful experience. Very professional, fast, clean up well, and did a super job. The job was big and needed to be done right away. They took care of everything. The job was inside and outside my house in the middle of Winter and they worked so hard. They came back to check on the soil in the Spring to make sure it settle okay and if there was anything else that needed done and I didn't have to call and ask them to come. I highly recommend them!

FAQ's

Radiant heat driveways work by using a series of tubes or electric heating elements embedded in the driveway to warm the surface and melt any snow or ice that may accumulate on it. Here's how the system works:

  1. Installation: First, the system is installed beneath the driveway surface during construction or renovation. The tubes or heating elements are embedded in a layer of insulation and then covered with concrete or asphalt.
  2. Activation: When the system is activated, either manually or automatically, hot water is pumped through the tubes or electricity is supplied to the heating elements, which in turn warm up the driveway surface.
  3. Operation: The system is designed to maintain a consistent temperature throughout the driveway, which helps prevent the accumulation of snow and ice. This allows for safer driving conditions and eliminates the need for snow removal.

  1. Hydronic systems: These systems use hot water pumped through a series of tubes to warm the driveway surface. They are typically more efficient and cost-effective to operate than electric systems, but they are more expensive to install.
  2. Electric systems: These systems use electric heating elements embedded in the driveway surface to warm the surface. They are less expensive to install than hydronic systems, but they are typically more expensive to operate.

Overall, radiant heat driveways can be a convenient and effective solution for homeowners looking to maintain safe and clear driving conditions during the winter months.

The time it takes to install a heated driveway can vary depending on several factors such as the size of the driveway, the type of system being installed, and the weather conditions during the installation process. Here is a general timeline for the installation of a heated driveway:

  1. Design: The design process can take several days to several weeks depending on the complexity of the system and the size of the driveway.
  2. Excavation: The excavation process typically takes a few days to a week depending on the size of the driveway and the amount of dirt and debris that needs to be removed.
  3. Installation of system: The installation process typically takes 1-2 weeks depending on the type of system being installed and the size of the driveway.
  4. Pouring of concrete or asphalt: After the system is installed, the driveway surface needs to be poured with either concrete or asphalt. This process typically takes a few days to a week depending on the weather conditions and the size of the driveway.

Overall, the installation of a heated driveway can take anywhere from 2-6 weeks depending on the factors listed above. It is important to consult with a professional contractor to get an accurate estimate of the installation time for your specific project.
