What Is Drainage Installation?
Drainage installation means installing new drain lines or drainage connections for plumbing fixtures. This may include drain lines for sinks, laundry areas, basement plumbing, floor drains, bathrooms, kitchens, utility rooms, and other drainage needs.
A proper drainage installation helps wastewater move away from the property correctly. Poor installation can lead to slow drains, sewer smells, leaks, backups, and future repair costs.
Drainage installation may be needed for:
- Basement renovations
- New bathroom plumbing

Drainage Installation vs Drain Repair
Drainage installation is used when a new drain line or drainage connection is needed. Drain repair is used when an existing drain line is damaged, leaking, or not working properly.
Drainage installation may be needed when:
- A new fixture is being added
- A basement is being developed
- A laundry area needs drainage
- A new floor drain is required
- A sink, shower, tub, or toilet is being relocated
Drain repair may be needed when:
- An existing drain pipe is leaking
- The drain line is cracked
- Water backs up repeatedly
- Drainage is slow due to pipe damage
- A pipe section needs fixing
If you are adding something new, you likely need drainage installation. If an existing drain is leaking, cracked, or causing repeated problems, you may need drain repair.
Why Proper Drainage Installation Matters
Poor drainage installation can cause problems that are expensive and frustrating later. A drain line needs the right size, slope, connection, and placement to work properly.
Poor installation may lead to:
- Slow drainage
- Frequent clogs
- Bad drain smells
- Leaks behind walls or under floors
- Basement water problems
- Gurgling drains
- Fixture backup
- Drain line damage
- Future repair or replacement costs
A proper installation helps protect your home and keeps your plumbing system working better.

Posted on Google shahzad razaTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Mike went above and beyond when my sump pump stopped working during the heavy rains we've been getting in Edmonton. He walked me through how to safely test it over the phone late at night, gave me a practical tip to keep the water away from the walls until morning, and even tracked down a replacement pump during a city-wide shortage. First thing in the morning he was at my door and had it sorted. This is the kind of tradesperson you want on speed dial, honest, calm under pressure, and genuinely helpful even before the job starts. Highly recommend.Posted on Google Keba MillsTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Mike at Family Wise Plumbing in short was great. I had an urgent need and he showed up promptly and resolved the issue. He even took the time to walk me through some know how in terms of plumbing. I will be keeping his info for future needs and would recommend to anyone who asks. Price was also great. Thank you Mike.Posted on Google pall98Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Mike was great, super nice guy, came on short notice and was very knowledgeable and honest. Definitely happy we gave him a call and would 100% recommend to anyone.Posted on Google Judy HuckTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Family Wise Plumbing and Drain Cleaning repaired a leak on the outside water tap and a leak in the cold water line in the basement. Mike was friendly, professional and gave us the best price possible. The repair was done promptly and efficently. Mike even helped set up and install a water timer I had purchased. The cost was very reasonable compared to quotes from other companies. We would definitely recommend Mike for your future plumbing and drain issues.Posted on Google ed jTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google.

Highly recommended.Posted on Google Raj BrarTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Family Wise Plumbing was courteous and quick to respond to my call. Came out and assessed the issue and fixed the clog. I highly recommend Family Wise Plumbing to anyone looking for plumbing repairs.Posted on Google Stuart HelfrichTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. I had a fantastic experience with Mike from Family Wise Plumbing, and would highly recommend him for any of your plumbing needs. My sewer mainline was backed up, and after I had no success trying to auger it myself I called Mike for help. He was super friendly while asking questions regarding my issue and very accommodating with scheduling an appointment. Mike showed up on time and got right to work; but not before taking a quick look at the work area, helping me clear out some items obstructing access, assisting with cleaning up some water that had flooded the washroom, and even giving my girlfriend a hand sweeping snow off her vehicle. Mike went to town augering the sewer line, all while explaining to me the possible causes for a back-up and potential ways to remediate any issues. He answered all the questions I had and even offered advice for solving any possible plumbing snags with things he spotted in the basement that weren't even related to the task at hand. Mike was always updating me when/why he would switch auger heads, and when he felt he had dislodged the potential blockage. He was very respectful of me, my home, and my pets while he worked; taking care to prevent any damage and clean up as he worked. Mike got my sewer line flowing again, and after making sure it was functioning properly he charged me exactly what was quoted. No silly fees or attempts to upsell me at all. If you require a friendly, diligent, and honest plumber look no further and give Family Wise a call. I am extremely happy with the service provided, and I am confident you will be too. Thank you so much for everything Mike! (If anybody asks please tell them I at least loosened the blockage for you with my failed attempt.)Posted on Google Drey PTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. I found Mike on kijiji and I couldn't be more happy. He has to be one of the most genuine and friendly guys i have ever met. My cats loved him and probably held up the job getting in the way. When it came to the job he was extremely knowledgeable and skillful in everything he did. Our house was build in the late 60s and some of the plumbing is not the best but he fixed all the issues the came up. I now have a plumber that I will call for anything and everything. He is not like the huge plumbing outfits and you will not regret using him for any job.Posted on Google Melissa SteinkeTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Early January I had a leak in my water line from my humidifier and this happened at 11:30 at night when I noticed . Not fun. I don’t have a regular plumbing place either. I haven’t found one reliable or reasonable or where they don’t try to sell me a membership I don’t want. I tried calling a few companies at midnight but had to leave messages or was told they weren’t sure when someone would come so I decided to watch it all night with a bucket under and call first thing in morning to someone for help at 7 am when places opened. One place said they could come the next day. It couldn’t wait that long. I found out later I was talking to an AI voice and not a human at another place. When you have a water leak and have no idea about plumbing that could cause major damage and insurance might have to get involved you need someone urgent not the next day ! Finally I saw Family Wise online and I called but had to leave a message. This was after calling 3 others. To my surprise the owner Mike called back right away and said he could come at 11:30. He found where the leak was and fixed it and his charge was very reasonable compared to others . He even looked at my one toilet and fixed my faucets in another bathroom . He went over and above for the price he charged with no upfront cost just to come out like others do. He was very polite and friendly. I would definitely recommend him.
