What’s a Shut Off Valve?
A shut off valve is an inexpensive and convenient addition to any home plumbing system. It can save you time and money, and help you avoid unnecessary damage. With a shut off valve, you can stop the flow to a specific fixture without shutting off the water supply throughout your entire home. So if you experience leaking from one of your fixtures, if you have a shut off valve on that particular fixture, you can act quickly and turn it off to stop the leak while you call a professional Toronto plumber to help you. Since you’re able to stop the flow of water right away, you minimize damages.
At Drain Rescue Plumbers, we suggest that every fixture in your home have its own shut off valve if possible. So if you need a fixture repair or replacement, call in our licensed plumbers in Toronto to install a shut off valve at the same time. You never know, this might just save you a ton of trouble in the future.
Where is Your Main Water Shut Off Valve Located?
Do you know where the main water shut off valve is located in your home? Many homeowners don’t and it isn’t until they find themselves in an emergency that they realize how important it is that they do know! Of course, by then it may be too late. In the event of a plumbing emergency, even if you’re slightly delayed finding your shut off valve, this can result in gallons of spilled water and colossal damage to your home. Make sure you know where your main water shut off valve is located and keep a wrench next to it so you’re always prepared for the unexpected.
Main Water Shut Off Valves for Your Home
Most homes in the Toronto area that get their water from a city supply will have a water metre and a shut off valve next to each other. The water metre is usually located near the street, in an underground access area. If you lift the cover, you will find either a handle or a valve with a straight metal flange across the top. You need to turn the handle (with your wrench) until it won’t turn anymore. Once this is complete, your water should be shut off.
Main Water Shut Off Valves and Additional Shut Off Valves
Some homes have a main water shut off valve as well as additional shut off valves that can turn off water from various points in your home. For example, you’ll find the main shut off valve at the point where water enters your house. But you may also have shut off valves in the basement, under your kitchen sink, under a main closet floor and on every toilet.
When to Call a Professional Plumber
If you cannot access or find your main water shut off valve, call a local Toronto plumber immediately!
Not only can Drain Rescue Plumbers assist you quickly and professionally in the case of an emergency water shut off valve leaking, but we can also provide:

Thank you Marek for your quick and straightforward work on our kitchen sink.
I had a sewer backup in my basement and called Drain Rescue Plumbers. They were incredibly responsive, and Marek arrived quickly to assess the situation. He was professional, knowledgeable, and very clear about what needed to be done. Marek arranged everything efficiently and had the issue resolved promptly. I really appreciated his calm and reassuring approach during a stressful time. The guys that performed the work were punctual and did a great job.

Michael saved the day for us. came right away and declogged our drain in no time
I had a get together at my house and was cooking up a storm! Little did i know i clogged my kitchen sink also two shut off valves were leaking below the sink! Drian rescue came immediately and solved all my problems before guests arrived! Super thankful and highly recommend Drain rescue!
Would highly recommend! Marek came over and dealt with the problem day of so quickly, very happy they could accommodate me!
Our house had water back up for the first time while I was 8.5 months pregnant; definitely not the time to deal with more stress. We had someone out to assess the situation within a few hours on a Monday night and a crew over to fix the issue the next day, all the while checking the drain connections to ensure we would not be in this situation again soon with a little one.
Drain Rescue helped us out when we had some clay pipe fail and the drains begin to back up. Dennis in particular was helpful in explaining the problem and our options.

Michael killed it
Michael did an amazing job addressing our drain issue!
Marek came to the rescue and gave us a peace of mind. Our basement drain was overflowing everytime we use the toilet. We snaked it already but we weren’t sure if it has already cleared so we called Marek. He checked it with his camera and confirmed the line was clear. He actually worked on our kitchen line before and did an amazing job too that’s why we already established trust with him. Whenever we have plumbing problems, we will definitely give Marek a call again.
Marik was professional and provided detailed feedback.
Excellent emergency work from Marek and team - and on a weekend!
Marek did a great job of helping me sort out a major issue in my kitchen.
Thank you so much, Marek! What a star. Super punctual, great communicator, efficient and kind. Will be saving this number for future (hopefully not too many plumbing issues). :)
I had a major drainage blockage in my basement, and Dennis and his team from Drain Rescue were incredibly responsive and professional. They arrived quickly, came fully equipped, and immediately put my mind at ease. They explained every step of the process, were upfront about all costs, and made sure to get my approval before moving forward. Their transparency, knowledge, and care gave me full confidence that the issue was being handled properly. They even took the time to show me the completed work and left everything spotless. I highly recommend Drain Rescue for any plumbing job—big or small!
Charles came by, super transparent, quick service as well. Would highly recommend!
Marek came promptly to our home to ascertain an issue we had with blocked exterior drain in our garage furnace room. He used the camera and within minutes was able to deliver a diagnosis and solution. Marek’s professionalism and pleasant demeanour was so evident and I would highly recommend his services to anyone. Thank you very much Marek and Drain Rescue Plumbers.

We had a flood in our basement Marek showed up right away and was able to diagnose the issue very quickly. He helped us understand the issue in plan English and put together a plan to fix the issue. Look no further for a plumber. We are so grateful for their help to resolve the issue.
Marek have done a wonderful job and I’m glad that we made a call at the drain rescue plumbers. Thankfully, they have send their best person for helping all of us in such a difficult situation on first call.

Marek did a fantastic job. Very friendly and professional. Best of all he arrived within two hours and soon had my drain cleared. I'd definitely call DrainRescue again.
Marek came within 30mins of me calling and solved our problem within 5mins. He was pleasant and professional. I would highly recommend this service.
Our scrambling one night last week trying to find a reliable plumbing company to fix that dreaded sewage backup problem in the furnace room landed us with Drain Rescue Services, and lucky for us it was a right decision. The response was friendly and fast, and their representative Marek was on site in less than an hour, the initial problem was diagnosed and someone was scheduled to work on it early next morning. Little did we know that the detailed scanning that afternoon showed a far more serious problem due to breakage and dislodging of those old clay drainage pipes underneath the house, which we were told was relatively common in our area.
After some discussion with Marek, the painful decision was made to replace the entire main sewage line to solve the problem once and for all. A team was called in the following morning and work started right away, which included ripping up part of the basement flooring and digging deep into the front lawn. The work went smoothly all to way until the job was properly finished in three and a half days. I must commend on the professionalism of Marek's team - they clearly know exactly what to do and were always courteous, friendly, and helpful. A few names that come to mind are Oleg, Andrew and Dmitri, the team work was, without exception, efficiently and expertly done.
Not that I would like to see these pros any time soon again, but I would definitely recommend Drain Rescue Services Corp to anyone who unfortunately had to deal with similar problems as the one we had.

I have dealt with various plumbing companies but Drain Rescue has proven that they can be trusted and honorable! Saved in my contacts as the only plumbers I'll call. Thank you for everything!

I just want to thank Dwayne and his crew from the 1 Wilson St location for the wonderful job they did at my home. Major underground pipe repair. They were very efficient and clean up was done with alot of care. Dwayne was available to answer any questions needed at any time and had all permits and regulations in place for the job to be done asap. Thanks guys! Thank you to the receptionist for recognizing that I have used Drain rescue before (separate issue) and refered me to the same crew.
On a very miserable cold and snowy Saturday in January, Drain Rescue arrived to install a new main sewer pipe from the sewer connection at the street into our home. This was a very big job completed in 8 hours by a team of highly skilled men. They worked non-stop. Two holes had to be dug on our front lawn and driveway, more than 8 feet deep where a man went down and dealt with the broken clay sewer pipe and assisted with the new pipes installation.
The work also involved digging in our basement for the pipe connection. The men put down coverings to protect our floors in the areas where they would work. When the work was completed the inside and outside of our home were left very clean.
We are extremely happy with the work done. Thank you Roman and your team of excellent workers. I give Drain Rescue 5 plus!

I recently had my basement drain repaired by DrainRescue Plumbers, and I couldn’t be more pleased with my experience. From the start, their customer service was exceptional—prompt, friendly, and informative. The project was expertly coordinated and managed by Marek, who ensured everything ran smoothly and on schedule. He communicated clearly at every step and handled any issues with professionalism. The finished product was high quality. I strongly recommend DrainRescue Plumbers to anyone in need of reliable and top-notch drain repair service.
Great service by Marek and very professional
Marek came in to do a job and help us figure out what our drainage issue was and did an excellent job with the job.

Michael did a quick and good job to unclog my kitchen sink. He was helpful and gave good advice during the service.
Exceptional Service – Fast and Reliable!
We had a completely blocked drain on a Sunday night due to old clay pipes broken by tree roots. As the waste water started backing up into our basement floor, I frantically search for a plumbing company and found Drain Rescue Plumbers. I called and Roman responded promptly. A crew with him arrived within two hours, used a drain camera to confirm the blockage, and explained the issue clearly. By late afternoon on Monday, they had already replaced the damaged drain, working efficiently even in early winter conditions.
Their professionalism, speed, and quality of work were outstanding. I highly recommend Drain Rescue Plumbers to anyone needing drain repairs.

Micheal did an amazing job!
Drain Rescue is fast and reliable. The plumber Michael is knowledgeable and knows what he is doing. I would recommend and use them again in the future.
Called this company, the division on Wilson in Hamilton to book an emergency appointment. Received a call from Marek S. the Plumber 4 minutes later to confirm he would be there in an hour, which he was. As a man who has been in the HVAC service industry for 26 years, I cant say enough about him. Very professional and likeable, even took time for a laugh. Job was done and completed professionally. Great experience over all. Thank you Marek and Drain Rescue, all the best and will recommend you to all.

Great company. Was able to come out the next day for a CCTV recording of my sewage lines. Marek was very nice, professional, clean, and quick. He went above and beyond to explain exactly what would be completed. Would highly recommend.
Marek and the rest of the Drain Rescue Team have been extremely prompt and professional in getting my drainage issues resolved.

Had a great experience with Drain Rescue Plumbing. They came out very quickly, didn’t charge anything for the inspection, and provided a very reasonable price for the work. Wayne was our plumber — he was super friendly, easy to work with, and even took the time to quickly fix a couple of minor unrelated issues while he was here. Highly recommend Drain Rescue to anyone needing fast, professional, and reliable plumbing services.
Signed up last week with Charles. He has followed up to ensure a quick resolution to our problem. Crew showed up this morning on time, very respectful of our home, which is much appreciated. I have been in a sales capacity and as a business owner for decades in the home improvement industry and have always maintained - it’s all about the implementation and installation of ‘whatever you’re having done’. Five stars here for sure to you all. Great crew! Thank you! Michael

Right from the phone call to the office to job completion. I was told someone would be here between 6-8pm. Marek was excellent, he communicated his arrival time and stayed in touch over the course of the job. Being an emergency, I was happy to hear the job could be completed right away. We are all set for when we open on Monday. Thank you Marek and your crew.
I called Drain Rescue on a Sunday as waste water was backing up into my house! They were able to come faster than the other guys, and proceeded to isolate and stop the issue quickly. They then did a thorough assessment on how to permanently fix the problem. They were quick, tidy, and very helpful.

Highly recommend Drain Rescue Plumbers. Roman and his crew did an amazing job. I had an emergency situation, tree roots were growing in the drainage pipes causing backup in my basement. In a span of two days, they made all arrangements, excavated, replaced the damaged pipes, cleaned up all the debris and dirt.

I was really impressed with this company. They worked so quickly and efficiently! Got a free quote for a big project and by the next morning they were on the job. They worked long and hard to complete the job in one day! The crew, technician and receptionist were all very friendly and helpful. Even the admin side of things were so well organized and impressive. They run a really good operation there. Highly recommend
I had a main drain line blockage issue and I called Drain Rescue for help. Within 1 hr, a plumber came and inspected the line, and was recommended to replace the broken drain. 1 day to locate gas, and next day, the crew came, promptly dug up the ground, and replaced the broken pipe, all with a day. Thank you for the help Dennis and team.
Quick, professional and reasonably priced...backed up toilet last year and backup up tub this year... didn't know our tub and bathroom sink were connected so that was good to know...thank you Julio for your exceptional service!
Great Service! Blair came to my house on time and fixed my kitchen sink blockage right away. Highly recommend!!
After originally being unsatisfied with their service, I was contacted by the owner who wanted to make things right. The tech he sent out (Mohammed) was fantastic. Profession, courteous and friendly. Great company.
I am very glad with their service. Dwayne was very professional and reliable. He arrived on time, did the investigation and told me to contact city for solving the issue. He did not even charge me.
Very professional.
Very good experience calling Drain Rescue today. The rep arrived on time and we agreed on the work that needed to get done and a reasonable price. He did not quit until he was satisfied it was solved which really stood out, I do not expect that from a typical service. A very good value considering the attention we got. Would recommend.
Really prompt in dealing with us..arrived at time advertised and solved our problem within minutes! Pleasure to work with Dwayne. Thanks
They came and replaced gasket for toilet in basement bathroom. Replaced cartridge for kitchen faucet. Thank you Brian and office staff for getting here so fast.
