Drain Doctor - East Anglia Reviews 

A great service. The engineer was superb and cleared our issue in no time. I wouldn’t hesitate in recommend Drain Doctor to anyone.

Great customer service, the engineer arrived exactly on time and was friendly and professional. They really do their best for their customers. My second time using them, and I would use them again.

Drain Doctor are excellent. They arrived a few hours after I phoned. Tom found the problem quickly and sorted it out there and then. Excellent efficient service.

Received a call at 09:00 after completing the initial enquiry first thing. Booked an appointment for the afternoon Richard arrived around 12 gave us a quote which we were more than happy with explained the work required, carried out the job professionally and gave us some advice going forward. Will be recommending the service to everyone. Thank you

Excellent service and the team doing the work took the time to explain how the system works and what to look out for.

I spoke to James and he was very helpful and informative.

Problem reported early morning, engineer attended and all resolved within six hours. Very impressive.

speedy reply to my enquiry. Very personable guy who handled the chat well and did a great job on the problem. A little heavy on price but no pressure as callout was free & I could have gone elsewhere but my problem just needed sorting quickly

The engineer, Kevin explained everything to me very clearly. Was very efficient and friendly and made a big fuss of my dog.

Efficient service, very pleasant driver. Highly recommended

From my first call to the DrainDoctor to the job being completed, the service was exceptional. Very friendly and helpful people and went out of their way to help. Thank you

Kevin got the job done efficiently and advised us on something which we still need to do. He was very kind and helpful and inspired us with confidence. Thank you

Our kitchen sink was blocked for several days, so we called Drain Doctor. An engineer arrived two days later. Upon arrival he wanted to inspect the main sewer from the manhole with an endoscopy camera, even though I explained the blockage was quite far away from the manhole. That inspection unsurprisingly found nothing relevant.

He then told us the job would be charged at an hourly rate rather than a fixed price. I agreed. I told him there is a much easier access point with a single bend that should allow a snake to reach the blockage, but he still decided to removed the U‑trap under the sink to go from there and after about ten minutes he found it a no-go. Then his phone rang and he was on the call for some time before trying the easy access point I had told him earlier. By that time roughly 30 minutes had passed.
He worked with the snake for about another 20 minutes, then took it out and went onto another phone call. After another 20 minutes he returned to me and said his tool kept hitting something hard and bouncing back about five metres in the pipe; he could continue but could not guarantee a fix. He suggested hiring an expensive specialist camera system from the office for a deeper inspection, which would incur a higher hourly rate, and said the office would send a quote the next day — we are still waiting for that quote.

In the end, for at most 30 minutes of actually working on the blockage, he initially wanted to charge us for two hours on site, then "kindly reduced" it to 1¼ hours. After negotiating he left having been paid for one hour. The sink remained complete blocked.

The next day a £20 DIY snake I ordered on Amazon arrived, and on the first attempt I managed to clear the blockage in 5 minutes. Given that outcome, we feel the engineer was unprofessional and that we were overcharged for poor service. We will not use or recommend this company.

Excellent service. Helpful expert

Superb service as usual. I have used them 3 times over a six year spell and they have remained consistently excellent. Great response from the initial enquiry into the evening and resolved next day within 20 hours. The engineer Steve Jones was excellent and went above and beyond to clear up overflow spill as well as clear the gully, very friendly, professional and helpful. Thanks for another great job.

We called Drain Doctor out as we had a drain blockage in the pipes outside the house and they are a local company. The engineer who came out was incredibly helpful, and professional, assessed the problem, used a camera, cleared the blockage and gave a lot of advice about future maintenance and the current state of the drains and said he would provide a detailed report. The service was excellent. Thank you very much.

We had , what I thought, was a simple block toilet but, after 2 days doing what I could, we called in Drain Doctor. I'm always reluctant when I have to bring in help from outside but need t have worried as Colin was a true professional, courteous and friendly. He handled the job, which was 100 times worse than I had expected without complaint and, cleared the problem, thanks Colin.

Kevin arrived promptly and was very polite, knowledgeable and respectful.
He surveyed the problem with my toilet and drains very thoroughly before giving me the option whether or not to proceed. The issue was resolved quickly, and, Kevin gave me suggestions and information on how to proceed to prevent any major problems from happening again.
Would definitely recommend Drain Doctor!

He phoned to say what time he would arrive and was friendly and informative. He had all the kit required including a camera which he let me see as things progressed which was really interesting. He found the blockage in my drain and cleared it and checked that all Loos were running clear and even took away the debris.
Price was very clear and reasonable. A brilliant firm.

Excellent arrived on time and solved the problem which was not straight forward! Excellent service !
