Home Owner Services

Home Drainage & Plumbing Services

Whether you currently own your home or are planning to buy or sell one, SWR provides services that may save you money but more importantly provide you peace of mind.

Are Your Buying a Home?

Before you buy a home, especially an older one, in addition to a home inspection, you should also consider having some additional inspections completed that aren’t often considered, namely for the storm sewer, sanitary sewer and water line. If you have these systems inspected this could save you a quite a bit of money in repairs or potentially help you avoid buying a house with costly plumbing or sewer problems. Our inspections can reveal potential problems a home inspection may often miss. The time to find out if a sewer is faulty or needs replacement is before buying a home, not after.

By having the water line inspected, you can be assured that the lines are in good condition and made from materials that are available today if it was needed to be repaired.

Are Your Selling a Home?

Maintaining the equity value of your home is important and regular maintenance of the storm and sanitary lines will certainly add to it. If you are planning to sell have your storm and sanitary sewer lines inspected so that its respective condition will not detract from the value of the home but rather increase it.

Are You a Home Owner?

As with anything we own, it is important to keep serviced so that it can run at its optimum; a home is no different. Call us to inspect the storm and sanitary sewer lines as well as the water line to ensure it is operating at its best. We’ll provide a maintenance program so these lines are regularly cleaned, and if necessary, provide an estimate to do any installations or repairs. There is only one call you need to make when it comes to taking care of the plumbing and drainage for your home – and that call is to SWR Drain Service 604.596.0131.

For over 15 years

We have used SWR drain service for over 15 years. We bought a new house and after only 3 years our two sanitary sump pumps ceased. The SWR crew replaced the pumps and we have not had any problems in well over ten years now.

When we had a moisture problem in our basement SWR came with an inspection camera and checked the perimeter drain system. We were able to check the depth of the system as well as see minimal root growth which was not blocking any flow. The problem turned out to be a lack of air circulation in this area of the basement and there was no need to excavate to replace the exterior drainage.

They are timely, professional, fully equipped, and have always solved our problems in a competent manner. We will continue to use and recommend them to our friends, family and neighbours.
