About the company

Blockbuster Drain Service has been providing drainage expertise for over 30 years. The company operates across the East Anglia region from Norwich, through Downham Market and into parts of Suffolk and Cambridgeshire. It offers drain unblocking, drain relining, drain jetting, CCTV drain surveys and an emergency callout service. Blockages are removed using high pressure water jetting with no chemicals. Payment is required on completion rather than upfront.

What customers say

Based on genuine customer reviews

Blockbuster Drain Service in Norwich comes across through customer accounts as a dependable outfit for clearing drains and carrying out related plumbing work. Reviewers repeatedly mention how quickly the firm responds, with one recalling that Glenn reached a property within an hour and a half of the call and dealt with an obstinate blockage that had beaten several local plumbers because of where it sat.

The same theme of prompt attendance runs through other accounts, including one noting that Ian or Glenn will make every effort to come out the same day when a problem is reported early, and that nothing slower than the following day has been experienced. The standard of the finished job is another recurring point: blockages are cleared swiftly and, once the main task is done, the other drains are inspected to confirm they remain sound.

Customers also value the guidance given, whether on keeping drains flowing freely or on small adjustments to a property, and CCTV surveys feature positively, among them one arranged in Cromer at short notice and another with a report delivered promptly. The team is described as courteous, capable and well organised, and the charges as fair. A point that comes up often is the reassurance of having a blockage removed without delay, for homes and businesses alike.

Fantastic service. Glen arrived at our property within 90 minutes of calling to ask for assistance. We had a very stubborn blockage which had defeated several local plumbers due to its difficult location. Glen was not going to be defeated...he used the most suitable equipment to reach the blockage and eventually cleared it. He then gave some really useful advice. He was friendly, efficient and professional. Highly recommended.

A fantastic local company. Time willing, either Ian or Glenn will try hard to attend on the day of a call if aware of a problem early enough. I have never known them attend later than the day after. Always knowledgeable, friendly and so on. Would highly recommend them to anyone,

Amazing service. Contacted them on Saturday (not expecting to have a reply until Monday). Glenn contacted me on Sunday and booked for Monday morning. He arrived as scheduled and resolved the issue swiftly and professionally. I will definitely use them again and would highly recommend them to others.

Came out within two hours of first calling to sort blocked drain. Friendly, polite, efficient and well priced. Even CCTV'd it as part of the price. Definitely use again.
