Professional and polite
Professional and polite. Everything thing clearly explained. Quote agreed up front with high and low values. Multiple trips out to assess what needed doing. Had a wait for the repairs to take place but it is worth waiting for quality.

Second time I’ve used Drain Doctor
Second time I’ve used Drain Doctor. This time it was Dr. Lee who came round to fit a rat flap in my sewage pipe. Really professional and competent chap. The manhole cover is partially obstructed by a concrete fence slab which he helped me manoeuvre out of the way. They’re my go-to guys for anything drain related now. New stainless steel rat flap fitted for £220 including VAT. Thank Doc!

A great experience all round
A great experience all round. Great communications. Work was booked easily. Despite a problem accessing the drain, the team came back at a later date at no extra charge. All of my questions were answered and I was able to talk things over without having to rely on written communication only. Thanks, Neil. Highly recommended.

Great service - would definitely recommend
I thought that Jack was coming to provide a quote, but he was able to diagnose and fix our problem straight away - this was great news, considering that we only made an enquiry a couple of days ago. Jack was a really nice guy and talked me through everything. Happy with the price we paid too. Thank you very much - a happy customer.
