Well water in rural Ottawa
Many homes outside the urban area are on private wells. Well water often carries more minerals and sediment than city water, which shows up in appliances as clogged washer and dishwasher inlet screens, scale on heating elements, and ice makers that slow down. If you're on a well, mention it when you book, and ask us about the filter or inlet-screen cleaning that helps.
Condos and apartments
For buildings, tell us the buzzer number, whether the elevator needs booking, and where to park. Technicians can then bring the right parts and tools in one trip. Property managers can name an approver for repairs in rental units.
Gatineau
We also serve Gatineau on the Quebec side: Hull, Aylmer, Gatineau and Buckingham (postal codes J8L to J8Z, J9A, J9H and J9J). Other Quebec addresses aren't covered.
