Tornado Plumbing & Drains

5.0(190)✓ Google-verifiedPublishes prices

Tornado Plumbing consistently delivers same-day or next-call response for blockages, leaks, and emergency drain work, with crews named Serhiy and Sergio earning praise for diagnosing root causes instead of recommending unnecessary fixes. Jobs range from faucet swaps to full sewer line replacements with backwater valve install and basement waterproofing; staff arrive on time, complete tasks cleanly, and communicate progress throughout. High-volume repeat customers and family referrals reflect trust built over years. Estimates land in the stated $180–$2,200 band depending on scope. The 98% five-star rating across 190 reviews, combined with their claim of a 25-year workmanship warranty, positions them as a low-risk choice for urgent or complex jobs in the greater Toronto area.
