Clearing blocked drain in rear garden of recently purchased property
"Called on a Sunday due to decorating and noticed drains were not clearing as expected. Opened manhole cover in the rear garden and saw it to be full and blocked. Advised on the phone the earliest they could do was the following day, chaps arrived earlier than expected and had the drain cleared in less than 30 minutes. Excellent response, affordable too! Couldn't be happier."
Cleared blocked sewage pipes
"Excellent work by Tommy. Attended promptly and sorted the problem within half an hour. Very polite and courteous. Left the place tidy. Billing was clear and transparent from the start. I would highly recommend"
Blocked toilets/drains
"Tommy and Gordon did a great job in finding the first, and then the second blockage. Very happy to recommend them as they didn't give up and tried everything even though it turned out to be rather tricky."
