Flavio truly went above and beyond to handle a complex job for installing a new hot water tank for our cottage in Georgian Bay. First off, he was willing to take on the job for us and drive 1.5 hours north of Toronto, outside of his normal service area, as we had trouble finding a local contractor to handle the project. He made arrangements with his suppliers to have a new hot water tank and required materials delivered right to our door early in the morning and showed up in the afternoon to complete the install. He endured extremely difficult working conditions to go down into a vary narrow crawl space under the cottage to run new PEX lines to the hot water tank and took extreme care to remove the old tank and install the new tank in a very tight space in a small closet adjacent to the bathroom. His work was very neat and professional looking and he took the time to clean the working area when he was finished. He even assisted us to reassemble the closet door and shelving around the hot water tank once the install was complete. Thanks for another great job Flavio!

We contacted Flavio for assistance because we had issues with vehicles being parked indoors in our warehouse area that were causing water to pool on the floor from snow melt and rain after being driven and parked inside. Flavio assessed the situation and recommended the installation of a new trench drain system to collect runoff from the vehicles along with a sump pit and sump pump system to separate out any dirt, sand and sediment. Not only did he do an excellent job with the installation of trench drain and sump pump; but he went above and beyond to grind down certain areas of the concrete floor that were uneven to improve the slope to the new trench drain. Great job Flavio!

We had a complete rennovation of our offices last year and both the previous plumbing and tile company that installed and cut the tile around the floor drains in the staff washrooms did a very poor job. The floor drains were unlevel with the finished floor and the tile cutting around the drain cover plates was jagged and irregular which was not only very unsightly but created a serious tripping hazard. I decided to call Flavio and Matt from Canada Wide Plumbing due to their expertise in troubleshooting and solving unique problems such as this, but most importantly for their attention to detail. The Canada Wide team came to the rescue and was able to expertly remove the existing tile around the floor drain without causing any damage to the surrounding tiles. Flavio then got a new tile and had it custom cut to the exact diameter of the new floor drain and was able to reinstall the new tile and floor drain perfectly flush so it is now an even surface. The end result is fantastic, and they took every precaution to cover the entire bathroom in plastic and dropcloths to protect the fixtures and surrounding floor while they were working. Following the floor drain work, Flavio and Matt did a complete inspection of all the plumbing above the ceiling tiles and found several problems with unsealed pipe insulation and pipe hangers that were improperly installed causing the pipes to sag and bend. They were able to fix all the issues and even recommended the installation of isolation valves for the various main lines. They also found several sections of copper pipe that were touching metal studs and were able to properly insulate it with rubber. Many thanks to Flavio and Matt for a great job! My only regret is not having Canada Wide Plumbing in to do the job right the first time, which hopefully will never happen again!

Flavio and Matt recently completely overhauled the hot water tank in my office by reworking all of the improper piping done improperly by the previous owner and also installed a custom drain pan and drain piping to prevent any possible leakage from the tank or relief valve from causing damage to the ceiling below. They were very professional and the installation was very clean and neat. Flavio also took the time to listen and follow my suggestions regarding the positioning of the tank and even installed an automatic trap primer to ensure no sewer gas would flow back from the drain. Excellent job!

Flavio Aloe of Canada Wide Plumbing has been working with our company, Argo Property Management, as a preferred plumbing contractor for the last 6-8 months. Flavio has worked at many of our managed commercial and industrial properties doing plumbing repairs and installations, and most importantly troubleshooting. Flavio recently troubleshooted a major drain problem in a commercial building affecting multiple units caused by an improper trap primer installation by a previous contractor and was able to quickly locate and fix the problem. He also did an excelllent job installing new piping to a series of roof drains in an industrial building. I have found his quality of work to be of the highest standard and his pricing fair and competitive. Flavio is very meticulous about his work and always insists on using high quality materials. I would highly recommend Canada Wide Plumbing for any plumbing project large or small.
