Ordinarily I don't waste my time leaving reviews, but feel I should on this occasion. I have had a blocked drain on and off for about 3 years, due to fat coming out of my dishwasher and blocking it. So thought I'd use John after a recommendation on FB. He came early next morning (sunday), and had my drain sorted in no time at all and a very reasonable cost too. I would much rather use this independent business than give it to a big corporate company. Thanks again John.
John from About Drains Ltd was absolutely amazing. He’s such a lovely, down-to-earth bloke and made a really stressful situation so much easier. He explained everything clearly, talked me through the whole process, and made sure I understood what was going on. You can tell he genuinely cares about helping people. I’d 100% recommend him and the company, brilliant service from start to finish!!!!!
If I could give them 10 stars I would!! Called them at 1pm they were with us same day! Called us when they were on their way which is so appreciated. They were here for best part of 30 minutes all fixed, give us so much information and helpful tips, definitely recommend
Really nice guy. Came from a job in 30 mins. Knowledgeable, with correct solution in a few minutes and away no fuss. Great service.
Came out looked at work to be done. When I followed up, he said he was interested and would send quote. He never did. I quit looking because I thought he was going to do the job. Now I am back to square one three weeks off schedule.
John from 'About Drains' responded immediately & came to our house in Horton within hours. He cleared a badly backed up drain. Then he raised 3 manhole covers; checked the whole system & showed us how it worked. He advised how to avoid problems in the future. We felt cared for & respected & John charged us a fair price. We would highly recommend his service to everyone! Read the other reviews - this is a company you can trust! Thanks John.
They turned up as planned and quickly set about their duties. They were meticulous with the way the approached the problem and after a few hour the blockage was history. I would recommend them 100%. Thank you
