What customers say

Based on genuine customer reviews

Septic tank installation and drainage work form the core of PJC Groundworks' output, with customers around Mawdesley describing new tank fits, drain alterations and, in one case, a rebuilt dry stone wall. Phil is the name that recurs across accounts, credited with expert advice and with tracing the underlying cause of drainage faults before setting out solutions. Reviewers repeatedly describe the team as professional and methodical from the outset, answering questions promptly and staying in touch while dates were arranged.

Punctuality and dependability feature often, with the crew arriving when promised and finishing installations to a high standard, even on awkward ground such as a high winter water table or restricted canal bank access. Tidiness is another theme, one customer rating them the cleanest workers encountered, and sites left clear once the job was complete. Communication before and after the work is mentioned frequently, together with sensible, prompt quotations and no surprise additions to the bill. The team's readiness to come back years afterwards to assist is also noted. Challenging sites, including those requiring sign-off from building inspectors, were seen through to satisfaction.

After being let down by another local firm we contacted PJC. Phil and his team was super efficient. Quoted, gave us dates, kept in touch and literally the team worked so hard the turnaround was super quick. New tank was in within the day and they was all tidied up. 100% recommend. These guys do what they say they will do without letting you down.

We're so glad we contacted Phil at at PJC Groundworks and it's always a pleasure (and relief!) to find someone who is so good at what they do. Extremely professional and systematic, Phil was able to identify the root cause of our drainage issues and propose suitable solutions. Thank you so much for your help and expert advice / customer service, it's very much appreciated and we have no hesitation in recommending PJC Groundworks. Gerwyn and Holly 😊

Phil was brilliant organising and fitting in a new septic tank on the house that we are buying. Phil was helpful and responded quickly to my questions and put my mind at ease before the work started. The job was completed within 3 days and was finished to such a high standard. I’m really happy and would highly recommend Phil and his team.

I have used Phil and his team 3 times . All complicated jobs. I can’t stress enough get PJC to come round . I would never go anywhere else. They don’t moan or charge extra or go home early . The just do an excellent job … AND you can phone them 5 years later and Phil will come and help if he can . We had Canal banks to battle , very difficult access’s and PJC completed everything to the satisfaction of the building inspectors whilst others where scratching their heads.

Phil and Martin made a fantastic job of rebuilding our dry stone wall. It looks better now than it did before. I was really impressed with the whole job and I would highly recommend Phil and his team.

New septic tank installed at short notice. Very good communication. Excellent, very neat job. Would highly recommend Phil Cowley for all septic tank works.
