Question 1

What is a water main and why might it need repair?

Accepted Answer

A water main is the primary underground pipe that delivers water from the municipal supply to your building. Water mains can crack, leak, or become blocked over time due to aging, ground movement, or heavy use. Frank & Peter Grieco Contracting Ltd specializes in diagnosing and repairing broken or damaged water mains to restore reliable water flow.

Question 2

What is the difference between interior and exterior waterproofing?

Accepted Answer

Exterior waterproofing prevents water from reaching your foundation walls by applying membranes and installing drainage systems outside the building. Interior waterproofing manages water that has already entered, using interior drains and sump pumps to safely divert it away. Both solutions protect your foundation and basement from water damage.

Question 3

How often should drains and sewer lines be inspected or cleaned?

Accepted Answer

Drains and sewer lines should typically be inspected every 1–2 years, or sooner if you notice slow drainage, backups, or unpleasant odours. Routine inspection and maintenance, such as hydro-jetting or snaking, prevent costly repairs and blockages before they become emergencies. Frank & Peter Grieco Contracting Ltd can provide professional inspection and maintenance to keep your system running smoothly.

Question 4

What is high-pressure flushing (hydro-jetting) and when is it needed?

Accepted Answer

High-pressure flushing, also called hydro-jetting, uses a strong stream of water to remove grease, sludge, and debris from drain and sewer lines. It’s most effective for stubborn blockages or heavily used commercial systems. Keep your drains flowing smoothly by calling Frank & Peter Grieco Contracting Ltd to schedule hydro-jetting today.
