The company does not charge a call out fee and aims to be with customers in under 2 hours. Most of its work comes through referrals from customers.

What customers say

Based on genuine customer reviews

Households and a business centre in Portsmouth feature among the jobs handled by Swift Clear Drains, with much of the feedback centring on the speed of the response and the manner of the drainage specialist who attends. Justin is named again and again, and reviewers describe him arriving promptly, sometimes within the hour of a call, and getting blockages cleared without fuss. Several customers mention that the work covers both internal problems, such as a blocked kitchen waste pipe, and external drains, with soil pipes and general drain blockages also coming up.

Something that features in review after review is the clear explanation given before and after the job, together with practical tips on avoiding future problems. Tidiness is another recurring theme, with the area reportedly left spotless once the blockage has been removed. Customers repeatedly refer to fair, competitive quotes and to being kept informed about arrival times, including a more specific window given on the day. The tone throughout is of a polite, knowledgeable and efficient service, and one account notes that the same drain specialist returned two years after an earlier visit to deal with a separate blockage.

Justin was great. Took my call late on a Sunday and was over in the afternoon next day to clear out the issue. The job was done quickly and he also gave us some great advice and tips. I’d recommend his to anyone.

I had an excellent experience with Justin. He arrived promptly, was professional from start to finish, and clearly knew exactly what he was doing. The problem was diagnosed quickly and sorted without any fuss or mess, which was a huge relief. What really stood out was how efficient and respectful he was throughout the job. Everything was explained clearly, and he made sure the area was left spotless afterwards. The drain is now working, and the whole process was completely stress-free. A genuinely reliable, knowledgeable, and friendly service — I wouldn’t hesitate to recommend him to anyone needing drainage work done. First-class service all round.

Justin cleared a long-standing blocked drainage problem within minutes of arrival, diagnosed the cause as food and fat and issued advice on how to avoid a repetition. Excellent work with a minimum of fuss.
