Drain Unblocking

Peter and Craig arrived on time. Accessed drain hatch and explained the problem, as a blockage to main drains in the road, they quickly solved the problem by rodding the blockage and inspected the other drain hatch in the garden and explained the drain pipe may need to be descaled but to just keep an eye on it and call them if the problem returns. The price was very reasonable and I would recommend them to anyone

Peter and Craig came to deal with a very sluggish kitchen drain. They were very competent and professional and worked to find the best and least disruptive access to the drain before completing the work and leaving everything need and tidy. I would certainly use them again for any drain problems.

Really pleased with the work carried out by Peter and Craig. We had a serious drain/plumbing problem and they arrived quickly and were very thorough in their survey of the problem and their work in fixing it. Considering the difficult weather and covid conditions they were really professional and helpful. Work was carried out over 2 days and i wouldnt' hesitate to recommend them or to hire them again should the need arise.

Peter and his son came round very promptly to fix the blocked drains (outside sewer) that we had. They were very informative and obviously experts at their job. The problem was fixed very quickly and cleanly and they gave excellent explanation as to what the problem was and how to further remedy it in the future if it occured again. Really nice to work with a local family run business that knows their stuff.

Peter and Craig got to me within a couple of hours, and did a great job on unblocking out external drains and fixing leaky pipes. Worked fast and unobtrusively, explained what they had done and how to avoid the problems recurring in the future, and the price was about what I would have expected for the nature of the job. I would recommend them to anyone.

Fullbore Drain Service did a CCTV drain survey at my basement flat. They were very professional from the get go and a delight to have around. I have the report already (next day). I would without hesitation call them again!

Leaking drain gave water in cellar thanks to a blockage. Fullbore came within an hour of my call. Jetted drain and removed blockage in under an hour. Fast efficient and clean work. Pleasant chaps as well and a reasonable charge. We last used them in 2013 and were very pleased then.

Despite being the coldest day of the year, with snow disrupting transport in many parts of London, the team arrived on the dot of 8am as promised. They cleared the drainage problem using high pressure jetting within the two hours forecast time and to the agreed cost. They were unfailingly professional, considerate and polite throughout what was inevitably quite a smelly business, especially as one of the manhole covers is inside the house. Most importantly, the blockage was cleared and the work is covered by a three month guarantee. I would unhesitatingly use this firm again.

We had raw sewerage coming up from a drain on the patio and called Thames Water who did NOTHING! I then called Fullbore Drain Services who, after recommending that i dig the hole as that would nearly double the quoted cost, did the following after unblocking the drain to start with A main 150mm drainage line was severed and using British Standard fittings & couplings a new Y branch was installed this was set in ballast. The 100mm soil pipe currently serving the upper level w/c was also severed and once again the appropriate fittings used to re direct this pipe into the newly installed Y branch. A new 100mm heavy duty PVC pipe was then raised vertically to terminate just below surface level whereupon a secure rodding cap was fitted. The excavated area was subsequently back-filled to near surface level (i leveled it and relaid the patio slabs) They also carried out a CCTV scan downstream and determined that the main 150mm drain basically heads beneath the property making a direct connection with the local authority sewer. Steve and Craig were brilliant and I would have no problem in recommending them to anyone that wants ANY drain work done. They are polite, courteous, professional and efficient

I highly recommend Peter and Craig's service. They called the day after we contacted them and arrived on time. Both were very pleasant and they cleared two blocked manholes outside our block of flats knowledgeably, efficiently and enthusiastically for a very reasonable price. Peter also told us that they suspect a pipe defect and recommended a CCTV survey which they are going to undertake for us. .

I had problems on and off with flushing my toilet and it seemed to get worse by the day. I thought it might be the shallow gradient of the waste pipe and finally contacted Fullbore, trying to make an appointment for the following week. To my surprise they said they were just finishing a job about 2 miles away from where I live and could be with me within the hour and they were! I explained the situation and after briefly discussing the possibilities they set to work. They quickly realised that the main problem was scale in the WC bend. Craig, the son of the father and son team, tried tools first and finally his rubber-gloved hands to braek out lumps of scale. I was amazed but even more so that he did it as a genuine hands on job!! After he got all this stuff out he machined via the pan to the soil stack. After not much more than an hour they left but not before giving me some advice as to what I could do to prevent the scale building up from happening again. I was very happy to pay, what I considered to be a very fair price for the work they had carried out. What a great team. Highly recommended.
