Real Reviews from Real Customers

Don't take our word for it. Here's what people in Ottawa have to say.

★★★★★

"I had a leak from under my kitchen sink and woke up to a small pond in my kitchen. Of course it's stressful enough in times like these to have this happen, but it often ends up being an emergency repair needed – as life doesn't stop when it throws curve balls at you. I contacted Carling Plumbing expecting to have to schedule something in a few days from the time I needed help. I was pleasantly surprised to have Bob, of Carling Plumbing, come same day for the emergency repair! Wow! Not only did Bob fix the water leak problem, but he also took extra care in servicing an issue with my bathroom (this one was less of an emergency but he took the steps to correct it while he was already at my home). Fast and professional service! Very happy customer."

Coleen Stewart Ottawa

"He attached my new shower column by just using silicone to hold it to the tile, as it slid down the wall a few days later the hoses unattached and it began to leak. I called him to say it was leaking, he blamed it on the quality of the unit, when in fact the problem was that he never installed it correctly. He also sent us to the plumbing store to purchase supplies that he did not have on hand. He also installed our toilet sideways because he did not have a proper flange. I had to suggest to him how to correct the problem, instead of leaving us with a sideways toilet."

"Carling Plumbing has been handling my plumbing needs for over 10 years now. Bob was part of a team my contractor brought in for a reno in my last house and I've been using his services ever since. Most recently he did a large, complicated body of work in my current home. It involved replacement of my entire lateral drain system under the floor of my finished basement. This was done in a timely way with a minimum amount of destruction and allowed the house (with our family of 5) to stay functional in the middle of a pandemic. I can't imagine it going better than it did and he walked me through each step along the way to ensure I understood the issues, why they were problems, and what needed to be done to correct them. Besides the large work, he's also done many smaller service calls (plugged drains, p-trap replacements, etc.) always in a timely and friendly way."
