The guys were extremely professional

The guys were extremely professional, well mannered and made a stressful situation barrable. That's from the teams onsite to the customer service teams. 10 out of 10 for service.

Complex job completed well

The drainage works were completed professionally and to a high standard. We had previously called out a couple of other firms who provided conflicting advice on the work required and at very high cost. We were very pleased with the service provided by Auger.

First Class Customer Service

From start to finish, everything about my dealings with Auger has been first class. I initially chatted with two colleagues working at my neighbours and was so impressed from that chat I rang up to find out more, to see if you could help me. Everyone I have spoken with both over the phone and colleagues attending my property to carry out the repair work, have been brilliant - polite, courteous, respectful, professional and very efficient. I would highly recommend Auger to anyone.

Professional and polite.

The consultant who called at my house was very polite and professional. He left no mess and you could not tell that he lifted some of my block paving.

My experience was great

My experience was great. From start to finish. I found that the company and in particular the man who came to repair my water leak to go above and beyond what he needed to do. He ensured the leak was found and then repaired on the same day (which is not usually possible). I am so grateful of his service. Thank you to Byron.

From the outset I was kept informed with regard to time frames and the work to be undertaken. The engineers who carried out the work arrived on time, set to work straight away, kept me informed of their progress and were a pleasure to have around.

The office is run by people that can't take information in.
Had a water supply leak. Told them and it was near on 2m deep. They send 1 guy with a shovel.
And he dug 1.20 down and said he can't dig no more because he was on his own. That was 4/5 weeks ago. Then 1 guy turned up at 1pm . Lucky enough his mate turned up to help him. Don't keep you updated have to ring to find out what's going on. This been since the 10th April . It now 23rd July and still have 8 maybe 10 buckets over my back garden full of mud. Plus 2 wholes. The work men were brilliant. The office staff totally useless and wouldn't waste my time on employing them .
So avoid them. Not unless you want a hell a lot of stress

Systems not fit for purpose

These people were paid by my insurers around £30,000 to install a waste treatment plant that is shared between my home and my neighbours home.

Part of this system included a ridiculously noisy pump to pump soak away water up an incline so it could drain out on the way back down. This design was chosen instead of fixing and using the existing soak away on our neighbours property (who unreasonably said they didn't want their garden dug up).

We have to pay for this pumps electricity to facilitate the system. I complained about their installers poor handover, and the noisy pump, at the time of install, but they fobbed me off and didn't take it on board. I was suffering with cancer at the time (which they knew) so was too sick to fight with them.

The waste treatment plant has not even been installed for four years and the noisy pump has suddenly become far noisier, with a very loud buzzing sound, and it sounds rather unwell. So I called Auger to try and get it sorted out, and was promptly told that the system is out of warranty now!

So, please beware, before trusting these people, there installers are shoddy, and the systems they install are not fit for purpose and are likely to only last just beyond the measly three year warranty period. An allegedly heavy duty pump that only lasts for just over three years is simply not good enough, and is clearly not up to the job it was intended for! Even though they are full of friendly patter, and talk the talk, personally, I would in future choose any other installer!

They leave you in control

From the point of initial contact to the completion of work, Auger kept me updated on what was happening. Their agents, once on my property, explained what they were going to do, prior to proceeding and once the issue was identified, provided options before completing the work.

Left 91 Year Old Disabled Customers Without Toilet Facilities

Was referred to Auger by our insurers. First contact was very good. Surveyor was helpful and advised what was needed to replace collapsed sewer at the home of very elderly disabled couple. When they arrived to do the job they were somehow surprised that the collapsed sewer they were going to fix, was backed up. They then claimed blockage was in neighbour's property and wanted to charge extra time clear it. When we pointed out their original survey identified blockage was on our property, hence why being there to fix it, their head office instructed the single engineer they sent to leave site. This was despite despite the sewer being full, leaving the elderly couple without toilet facilities. We luckily arranged for the water board to come and clear the blockage, no thanks to Auger. Gave the two stars only because when they eventually returned, they did a decent job. oh and despite complaining, the still say they did nothing wrong. Very poor customer service.

I'd recommend using someone else.

Wouldn't use the again and disappointed that Direct line recommended them.
