Unblocking and relining drainage

Drain Experts provided an excellent service from start to finish. They unblocked and relined several collapsed drains at my property with ease and professionalism.

Communication was clear throughout, the team are highly knowledgeable, efficient and trustworthy. Providing clear advice on which repairs were urgent. They were also very helpful with my insurance claim supplying me with a detailed report and videos. Would thoroughly recommend.

They came out the next day to help with a blocked toilet. I was kept informed via WhatsApp when they were coming as they were running late. They explained what was going on and what the blockage was etc. Good service. The bill is a shocker but I knew it would be as I know drainage jobs cost a lot.

Job done but won't use again

Phoned up about a blocked outside drain,was told the call out fee and was told how much
Guys turned up and yes was a blocked drain,cleared within 45 minutes
Wasn't told when I rang that I would have to pay two calls out fee's for the guys and 20% VAT,extras nearly died of shock when a bill arrived for £332
Website needs clearer pricing
Also later that evening getting a msg asking for payment which I had already done

This company was on time

This company was on time, polite and extremly efficient. Went over and above what they needed to do to get the job done. The price was less than expected and well worth what had to be done.

Excellent Service, Highly Recommended

The gentlemen turned up soon after I asked for help, they were courteous, clearly explained everything that would happen, and gave me a clear idea of the bill. In half an hour my pipes were successfully unblocked, and I am happy to book them again to do further work. A swift, excellent job. Many thanks.

Called up and explained the situation

Called up and explained the situation, gave all of my details and was told someone would come out that afternoon, no one came, no one called to explain why etc, nor the next day, so went with another well known drain clearing company who did exactly what they said they would. 4.6* with only 5* reviews showing
should have raised my suspicions…
As per your reply my phone records prove a call to the number on your website, so my review is definitely correct.

Excellent service

We initially called Drain expert as we had a blocked toilet. The engineer came round to have a look first thing the next day after we had called the afternoon before & after having a look we realised it was a lot more of a complicated problem and our pipes had collapsed which resulted in needing our driveway to be dug up. Raymond in his team were brilliant and explained every detail to put our minds at ease as it was a shock after initially only expecting the toilet to need unblocking. The price went up as it required a lot more work than we were first expecting however Raymond took us through step by step and checked we were happy with the quotation before proceeding. They were very kind and professional throughout the two days work and no question was a silly question. They went above and beyond and went out of their way to purchase specific paint to the drive to restore it as close to the original as they could. All in all extremely good service and they would be the first people we called if we ever were to have another issue!

Thank you so much for your kind and detailed review, Mick & Jan.

We’re really pleased we could help resolve the issue for you, even though it turned out to be more complex than initially expected. Discovering collapsed pipes is never easy, so it’s great to hear that Raymond and the team were able to explain everything clearly and put your minds at ease throughout the process.

We always aim to be transparent about any additional work required and make sure customers are comfortable before moving forward, so we’re glad that came across. Restoring the driveway as close to its original condition as possible is important to us too, so it’s lovely to know that effort was appreciated.

Thank you again for choosing Drain Expert — we truly value your recommendation and would be happy to help again should you ever need us in the future.

Kind regards,
