Plumbing Services
Owner-operator John Siegfried has spent the last 25 years sorting out plumbing problems in homes from Courtenay to Campbell River — the kind of plumber who actually picks up the phone, shows up when he says he will, and stands behind every job. Whether it’s a dripping kitchen faucet, a Poly-B re-pipe before the old lines fail, or a full new-construction rough-in, the work gets done right and at a fair price. Same-day service is available seven days a week, 8am to 6pm. Free estimates on every job — call before you call anyone else.
Bathroom & Kitchen Plumbing
The kind of work that hits your morning routine: a faucet that won’t stop dripping, a toilet that runs all night, a shower head that’s lost its pressure. Most fixes are a single visit and the bill is fair. Call before you’ve spent another weekend wrestling with a wrench.
Faucet & Tap Installation & Repair
Kitchens, bathrooms, laundry rooms, and outdoor hose bibs — installed clean, sealed, and tested. Repairs for dripping taps, low pressure, or sticky handles — most are a one-visit cartridge or O-ring fix. All brands.
Sink Installation & Repair
Drop-in, undermount, farmhouse, and bar sinks for kitchens, bathrooms, and laundry rooms. New installs sealed and tested. Repairs for leaking sinks, loose mounts, slow drains, and worn drain assemblies. Old sink hauled away on swaps.
Shower Installation & Repair
Straight stall replacements through to full custom builds with high-end finishings, rain heads, slide bars, and steam shower setups. Repairs for leaky shower heads, sticky valves, and constant drips. All brands.
Bathtub Installation & Repair
Alcove, drop-in, freestanding, and soaker tubs. Cast iron, acrylic, or steel — old tub hauled away. Repairs for leaking spouts, dripping diverters, faulty drain stoppers, and leaking overflow plates.
Toilet Installation & Repair
Standard, comfort-height, and upgraded models — sealed, secured, and leak-tested. Repairs for running toilets, weak flush, base leaks, or constant fill. Most fixes are a fill valve, flapper, wax ring, or supply line swap — same visit.
Outdoor Faucet Repair
Leaking hose bibs, frozen-and-cracked taps, or stuck-shut valves. Frost-free, traditional, and yard hydrants. Stem swaps, washer replacements, or full hose bib replacement.
Custom Plumbing Fixture Installation
Custom fixtures, specialty taps, and finishing touches installed clean, tested, and matched to your existing setup. Bathroom and kitchen finishings, high-end included.
Garbage Disposal Installation
New garborator matched to your sink and breaker setup. Mounted clean, plumbed in, sealed, and run-tested. Old unit hauled away.
Drain Cleaning
Slow sinks, blocked showers, and backed-up tubs. Hand auger and drain snake — no harsh chemicals dumped in your pipes.
Dishwasher Installation
Water supply line, drain connection, air gap or high-loop, and shutoff valve placed. Coordinated with your kitchen reno or as a standalone job.
Washing Machine Hookup
Hot and cold supply valves, drain standpipe, and shutoff lever set. Includes outlet box installation where needed.
Ice Maker Water Line Installation
Dedicated supply line run from your nearest connection to the fridge. Saddle valve or tee-off, leak-tested before we leave.
Leak Detection & Pipe Repair
When there’s a wet spot on the ceiling and you have no idea where it’s coming from, you need diagnostic kit and 25 years of pattern recognition — not a hammer and a guess. John traces the leak, fixes it once, and writes up what he found. No second visit, no wrecking your drywall to find what an inspection camera would’ve shown in ten minutes.
Plumbing Leak Detection & Repair
Hidden leaks traced through walls, ceilings, and supply lines — damp spots, ceiling stains, or a mysterious water bill spike. Once found, burst pipes, pinhole leaks, cracked joints, and frozen-and-burst runs all fixed and leak-tested. Copper, PEX, Poly-B, and ABS.
Poly-B to PEX Pipe Replacement
Full home re-pipe or partial section before the old lines fail. Common in older Comox Valley and Campbell River homes. Neat work, leak-tested before we leave.
Plumbing Inspection
Pre-purchase, pre-renovation, or peace-of-mind diagnostics. Camera inspection on sewer and drain lines, pressure testing on supply lines, visible component check, and a written report.
Water Supply Lines
Buried water lines fail quietly — the first sign is usually a soft spot in the yard, a sudden drop in pressure, or a water bill that doesn’t add up. Underground supply work is dirty, technical, permit-pulled work, and cutting corners costs you twice. We do it once, properly, and put the yard back together when we’re done.
Water Line Installation & Repair
Copper, PEX, and PVC water lines for new construction, renovations, and home upgrades — sized to your home’s demand, pressure tested, and pulled to permit where required. Repairs for leaking lines, frozen-and-burst runs, low pressure, or rust-stained water.
Water Main Installation, Repair & Replacement
From the city water connection right to your home. New installs and undersized-line upgrades. Repairs for leaking underground supply lines, frozen mains, or rust-stained water. Full replacements when the main is beyond repair — permits pulled, yard restored.
Sewer & Drainage Lines
Sewer trouble has a way of announcing itself loudly — and the longer you wait, the bigger the cleanup. John runs a camera before he digs, so you pay for the fix you actually need, not a guess based on what looks likely from the surface. Same-day calls welcome when it’s backing up.
Sewer Cleaning, Hydro Jet & Drain Clearing
Slow drains, backups, and odors — cabling, hydro jetting, and root-clearing on residential sewer lines and main runs from your home to the city line. High-pressure jet clears what cables can’t reach.
Sewer Line Repair, Replacement & Installation
Cracked, collapsed, root-damaged, or leaking sewer lines fixed with spot repairs or section replacements. Full replacements when the line is beyond repair. New underground mains for new construction — PVC, ABS, or cast iron, sized and pulled to permit.
Backwater Valve Installation & Repair
One-way valve installed on the main sewer line to protect your home from sewer backups during heavy rain or city sewer overload. Repairs when an existing valve stops sealing, gets stuck open, or fails after a flood event.
Sewer Cleanout Installation
Adds an exterior or interior cleanout fitting for easier access to clear future blockages. Saves on excavation when problems hit.
Sewer Camera Inspection
Video camera run through your sewer line from the city connection to the house and out to the tank. Identifies blockages, root intrusion, cracks, collapses, and connection issues.
Well Systems & Pumps
Well-system homeowners know the particular panic that hits when the tap goes dry. Most pump and pressure issues are a same-visit fix — foot valve, pressure switch, capacitor, or impeller — and John carries the common parts on the truck. For tougher calls, the diagnosis comes before the quote, so you know what you’re paying for.
Well Pump Installation, Repair & Replacement
Shallow well systems. New jet pump installs sized to your well’s depth and demand. Repairs for pumps that won’t prime, run constantly, or stop pumping — foot valve, suction line, pressure switch, capacitor, or impeller. Full replacements when beyond repair.
Pressure Tank Installation & Repair
Bladder-style or galvanized pressure tanks sized to your home’s demand, tee’d into the supply line and pre-charged. Repairs when the tank loses pressure too fast, the pump short-cycles, or the tank leaks — bladder, air valve, or full swap.
Pressure Switch Repair
Well pump won’t turn on, won’t shut off, or cycles too often. Common fixes: contact cleaning, diaphragm replacement, or full switch swap.
Constant Pressure System Installation
VFD-driven pump and controller for shallow well systems. Steady water pressure even during peak demand. No more pressure swings when multiple fixtures run.
Jet Pump Installation & Repair
Surface-mounted pumps for shallow well systems pulling water from wells under 25 feet. Install includes suction line, foot valve, tank tie-in, switch, and electrical. Repairs for pumps that lose prime, leak at the seal, or trip the breaker.
New Construction & Renovation Plumbing
Builders who’ve worked with John keep calling him back — because he hits his rough-in dates, leaves a tidy site, and the inspector signs off the first time. Open to single-family, multi-family, and addition work across the Comox Valley to Campbell River. New-build plumbing planned and sequenced with your other trades so nobody’s waiting on us.
New Construction Plumbing
Rough-in to finish, water lines, drains, gas, and fixtures. Single-family, multi-unit, and builder partnerships welcome.
Renovation & Rough-In Plumbing
Bathroom renos, kitchen redos, basement finishes, and full additions. Supply lines, drains, vents, and fixture stub-outs ready for the finishers.
Gas Fitting Services
Gas work isn’t something you want to hand to whoever shows up first — it’s life-safety work, and it has to be done by a licensed fitter. John holds his gas fitter ticket alongside his Red Seal plumbing certification, and every job is pulled to permit through Technical Safety BC, pressure tested, and signed off properly. A new BBQ line on a deck in Comox, a gas range hookup in Cumberland, or a generator tie-in for a Royston property — same fitter, same care, same code compliance. Gas leaks and emergencies bump to the top of the schedule — we’ll be there the moment we’re free. Call 250-207-5488 to book.
Gas Fitting
Licensed gas fitting from the meter onward. New gas lines, service upgrades, line modifications, and appliance connections. All work pulled to permit through Technical Safety BC and pressure tested.
BBQ Gas Line Installation
Dedicated line run from your meter to a quick-connect on the deck or patio. No more propane tank swaps. Sized to your BBQ, leak tested, and pulled to permit.
Gas Stove & Range Hookup (NG & Propane)
Gas Dryer Hookup
Gas Service Upgrade
When your existing line can’t keep up with a new appliance. We resize the line, replace the regulator if needed, and run new branches to each appliance. Pulled to permit through Technical Safety BC.
High-Efficiency Appliance Venting
B-vent, direct-vent, and Category III/IV power-vent systems installed to code for gas water heaters, furnaces, boilers, and fireplaces — with proper combustion air. Mid-efficiency venting too.

Pilot won’t stay lit, igniter won’t fire, gas valve stuck, burner running rough, or thermocouple failing. We diagnose and repair gas-side components on furnaces, water heaters, fireplaces, and ranges.
Gas Leak Detection & Repair
When you smell gas, hear hissing, or your gas appliance keeps shutting down. Pressure tests on every section of the line, soap testing on joints, and component-level checks. Repairs cut out the bad section, re-fit to code, and pressure test. All to B149 gas code.
Generator Gas Hookup
Dedicated gas line for your natural gas or propane standby generator. Line sized to the unit’s demand, regulator placed, leak tested, and pulled to permit. Coordinated with your electrician.
Hot Tub Gas Hookup
Dedicated gas line run from your meter to the hot tub heater. Sized to the unit’s demand, regulator placed, leak tested, and pulled to permit through Technical Safety BC.
Hot Water Systems
A failed water heater is the kind of problem that doesn’t wait — and a cold shower at 6am has a way of clarifying how much that hot water mattered. John handles tank and tankless installs, replacements, repairs, and yearly service across gas, propane, and electric, with authorized Rinnai on-demand installs for homeowners going tankless. Most failed-tank jobs in Courtenay or Campbell River can be sorted same-day if you call before lunch. Free estimates, fair pricing, and the old tank hauled away — no surprises.
Water Heater & Tank Installation
New hot water tanks in gas, propane, or electric. Standard 40 and 50 gallon plus 60 and 75 gallon for bigger homes. Like-for-like swaps or upsize for a growing household. Old tank hauled away, connections tested, venting verified.
Water Heater & Tank Repair
No hot water, lukewarm shower, leaking pressure relief valve, pilot that won’t stay lit, or rusty water. Common fixes are thermocouple, dip tube, anode rod, or pressure relief. Gas, propane, electric.
Tankless / On-Demand Water Heater Installation
Endless hot water with no tank taking up space. Gas, propane, and electric units sized for your home, including authorized Rinnai on-demand installs. New install or conversion from a tank setup — gas line resized if needed, venting installed to spec, controls set.
Tankless Water Heater Repair
Unit shuts down, throws an error code, doesn’t heat to set temperature, or runs out of hot water mid-shower. Common fixes: sensors, flow valves, or a scale flush.
Water Heater Service (Gas, Propane, Electric)
Annual tank flush, anode rod check, burner clean, venting inspection, and pressure relief test. The maintenance that gets you another five years from your water heater.

Heating Services
When the gas furnace won’t fire on a cold November morning, or the fireplace pilot keeps dropping, you want a fitter who actually knows the gas side — not someone guessing at thermocouples. John handles installation, service, and repair on gas furnaces, gas fireplaces, garage heaters, Rinnai wall heaters, boilers, and in-floor radiant systems across the Comox Valley to Campbell River. Annual gas-heating maintenance keeps small problems from becoming big ones — and the breakdown calls go to the front of the queue. Gas heating only — not full HVAC.

Sized to your home, gas supply checked, venting installed to spec, condensate drain set, and unit started up and calibrated. Coordinated with your HVAC contractor on the air side where needed.

Boiler Installation & Repair

In-Floor Radiant Heating Installation & Repair
Quiet, even heat throughout your home. Oxygen-barrier PEX zone runs tied into your boiler or hydronic source, manifold set, and zones balanced. Repairs for zones going cold, system pressure loss, or banging in the lines.
Water Filtration Systems
Water out of a Comox Valley tap isn’t bad — but well water, hard water, and city water with chlorine all benefit from the right filtration setup. John walks through what’s actually in your water before recommending a system, so you spend money on the filter you need — under-sink RO, whole-home sediment, UV for well, or a softener for hard water — not the one the showroom is pushing. Sized to your home, plumbed in clean, and serviced annually to keep it running at peak. Pre-purchase consultation is free — call before you buy.
Whole-Home Water Filtration Installation
Sediment, chlorine, and contaminant filters installed at your main supply line to clean every tap in the house. Protects your fixtures, appliances, and water heater. Sized to your home with pre-purchase consultation included.

UV Water Treatment Installation & Repair
Ultraviolet sterilization for well water and homes needing pathogen-free supply. Disinfects bacteria, viruses, and protozoa without chemicals. Bulb sized to your home’s flow rate. Repairs for bulb failures, controller errors, or flow drops.
Water Softener Installation & Repair
For hard water that’s scaling fixtures, drying skin, and shortening appliance life. Ion-exchange softener sized to your home’s hardness and demand. Repairs when the unit isn’t softening, isn’t regenerating, leaks, or uses too much salt. All brands.
Drainage Services
Vancouver Island weather is hard on basements — and a perimeter drain that fails in October can mean six months of dampness before the dry season returns. John handles perimeter drain installs and repairs, weeping tile, sump pumps, catch basins, and French drains for homes from Courtenay to Campbell River, plus camera inspections to spot trouble before you dig. The work is sized to your home and grade, permits pulled where required, and the yard gets put back together properly when we’re done. Call for a free site assessment before the rain shows up.
Perimeter Drain & Weeping Tile Installation & Repair
Around your home’s foundation to keep groundwater out of the basement and crawlspace — trenching, weeping tile, gravel bed, and discharge connection. Repairs when groundwater starts coming in: blockages cleared, damaged sections replaced, discharge lines reconnected.
Perimeter Drain Camera Inspection
Video camera run through your weeping tile to check for blockages, collapsed sections, and root intrusion. Identifies the problem before you dig.
Sump Pump Installation & Repair
Basements and crawlspaces. New systems include basin, pump, check valve, discharge line, and float — sized for your home. Repairs for pumps running constantly, not turning on, or grinding — most are a same-visit fix.
