Dead Battery Boosting Ottawa

Dead battery boosting in Ottawa is our most common call between November and March. You walk out to your car on a -25C morning, turn the key, and hear that slow, dying groan of an engine that does not have enough battery power to start. Ontario Towing arrives with professional booster equipment and gets your engine running in minutes.

Why professional boosting is safer than jumper cables

Borrowing jumper cables from a neighbour works sometimes. But connecting cables incorrectly can fry your car's computer, blow fuses, damage the alternator, or even cause the battery to explode. Modern vehicles have sensitive electronics that do not tolerate voltage spikes. Our commercial-grade booster packs deliver clean, regulated power directly to your battery without any risk to your vehicle's electrical system.

What happens after the boost

If we boost your battery and the engine starts and holds, you need to drive for at least 20 to 30 minutes to let the alternator recharge the battery. If the engine dies again within minutes of boosting, the battery or alternator is failing and you need either a replacement battery or a tow to a mechanic. We test both before we leave so you know exactly what is going on.

We boost dead batteries across all of Ottawa. Residential driveways, work parking lots, shopping mall garages, highway shoulders, and underground parking. Available every day of the year at every hour.
