Residential Plumbing Ottawa - Licensed Home Plumbing Services | Huntley Plumbing

The Plumbing Experts You Need

When it comes to protecting your home and keeping essential systems running smoothly, residential plumbing is at the core. At Huntley Plumbing Inc, we specialize in comprehensive residential plumbing services across Ottawa and the surrounding communities. From leaky faucets to full system replacements, our licensed team delivers fast, reliable, and code-compliant service every time.

With Ottawa’s harsh winters and aging infrastructure, homeowners regularly face challenges like frozen pipes, outdated plumbing systems, and emergency leaks. According to the City of Ottawa, nearly 20% of homes in the region were built before 1980 — meaning many properties are due for plumbing upgrades or preventative inspections. In addition, Ottawa’s storm and sewer systems follow guidelines established by the Infrastructure Canada Ministry, reinforcing the importance of working with licensed experts familiar with federal and municipal codes.

Our Satisfied Customers

Huntley Plumbing was recommended to us several years ago and we have used them many times (new shut offs, leak repairs, pipe replacements, new taps, etc.) We have been very pleased. Their focus on customer satisfaction is great (we had a small issue once and they went above and beyond to resolve it). We continue to use their services and recommend them to others.

We have dealt with Huntley Plumbing for 20 years. Matt and his team helped us when another trade messed up our radiant floor heat. Huntley Plumbing completed the 2 phases of our large 4 unit build in Westboro and even came to our country home 2 hours away. They are knowledgeable, friendly and go the extra distance for their customers. Definitely Recommend to anyone who wants it done right with no excuses. This company is the real deal

When our sump-pump failed late on a Friday afternoon we were in urgent need of assistance. It was a warm early spring evening and melt water was pouring into our basement. Huntley responded to our call immediately. Less than one hour after speaking to Mat on the phone, the new pump was installed and working. He was courteous, prompt and professional. We sincerely recommend Huntley to anyone requiring quality plumbing services.

In a time of lockdowns, I had been waiting months to get my washing machine installed. They were referred to me by a friend and within a week of contacting them they were here with an estimate and within two weeks the work was completed. They did an amazing job. Very thorough and very professional. I would highly recommend them and definitely choose them for future jobs.

The guys from Huntley Plumbing completed a small job for me today. As always, prompt, polite and professional. I am a long standing and loyal customer and would not call or recommend anyone else. Looking foward to my shower reno!

Common Residential Plumbing Issues in Ottawa

Whether you live in a newer development or a century-old home, residential plumbing systems require regular care. Our team addresses a wide range of issues, including:

Leaky Faucets and Fixtures

A dripping faucet can waste over 3,000 liters of water annually. We repair or replace faucets, showerheads, and valves using durable components to stop waste and restore efficiency.

Toilet Repairs and Replacements

Toilets account for roughly 30% of household water use. Whether your toilet is constantly running, flushing poorly, or showing signs of age, we offer effective repairs and modern, low-flow replacements.

Drain Cleaning and Clog Removal

Blocked drains are often caused by hair, grease, or tree root infiltration in older homes. We use hydro jetting and video inspections to safely clear and diagnose persistent issues.

Frozen or Burst Pipes

Ottawa’s winters cause thousands of frozen pipe incidents each year. We provide insulation upgrades, pipe rerouting, and emergency thawing services.

Sump Pump and Backwater Valve Installation

Essential for flood prevention in high-risk areas. Our team installs and maintains systems that protect your foundation from stormwater and sewer backups.
