In desperarion for a part i needed for a sediment filter. The gentleman was a huge help and was able to find the part i needed and was gracious and kind. There is still good people in this world! Go to Burnet Plumbing for all your needs! Thank You Laurie and Brooke Johnston!

Tom Abbott

Staff were professional, polite and courteous. Plumbers arrived on time and cleaned up after the job was done. I highly recommend Brunet Plumbing.

Mike Bajohr

The crew at Brunet are top notch. Dave, the owner, has gone out of his way to make sure my mom, who is in her eighties and lives alone, is well taken care of. He is a man of his word and takes pride in what he does. If you need a plumber in Kingston, trust Dave and his team.

Thanks so much for a wonderful addition to the kitchen! When I first looked how I wanted this kitchen used it was quite obvious I needed to add a table but how and where. I eyed the blank wall beside the door to the living room. I considered a pass through window between the kitchen and living room like the house I grew up in had, but I wanted to be able to use the door as a door. Jim at Brunet was prepared to work with my ideas and we now have a wonderful usable, looks like it belongs in the kitchen, cabinet with a drop down table!

Before you hire a plumber in Ontario

Yes. Plumber (306A) is a compulsory trade in Ontario - working without certification is illegal, not just inadvisable.

Certificate of Qualification, 306A Plumber

The individual doing the work must hold this, or be a registered apprentice working under someone who does. Ask for the certificate number and the name it is issued to. It belongs to a person, not a company.

Verify with: Skilled Trades Ontario maintains the public register of certified tradespeople.

General liability insurance

Two million dollars is the common floor for residential work. Water damage escalates fast, and a burst supply line during a renovation can exceed a small policy in an afternoon.

WSIB clearance

If a worker is injured on your property and the contractor has no coverage, you can be drawn into the claim. A clearance certificate is free for the contractor to pull and takes minutes.

Verify with: WSIB issues clearance certificates directly to the contractor on request.

TSSA gas technician certificate (only if gas is involved)

G1, G2 or G3 depending on scope. Required for anything connecting to a natural gas or propane line.

Verify with: The Technical Standards and Safety Authority regulates fuel safety in Ontario.

Questions worth asking

  • Is the person doing the work certified in 306A, or an apprentice being supervised? Both are fine. You just want to know.
  • Is this quote flat rate or time and materials? If hourly, what is the estimated range and what happens if it runs over?
  • Does the job touch a gas line, and if so who holds the TSSA certificate?
  • Does this need a municipal plumbing permit, and are you pulling it?
  • What is the warranty on labour, separately from the manufacturer warranty on parts?
