Drainage problem sorted efficiently but not happy about cost

The operator was courteous and completed the drainage problem very efficiently but thought the charge of £171 was very excessive for less than an hour’s attendance

Before we carry out any work, we evaluate the problem and provide a quote. Once you are happy with the quote, we then start the job.

If this process was not followed, please email your postcode to UK.Feedback@nbly.com and I will investigate this further for you.

Thanks,

I couldn’t believe how serious the problem with my kitchen and how quick they sort it out for me. Called them in the morning and problem fixed before 12 on the same day. Paul was very professional and polite. Now my kitchen drainage is like new and no doubt, I will strongly recommend them to my friends.
