Our toilet was repeatedly blocked and would not flush away. Using his drain camera Simon quickly diagnosed the problem to be a build up of limescale in the pipe. He took the toilet out, removed the limescale and put the toilet back, all in an hour and half. He explained what he was doing, made very little mess and the cost was very reasonable. Would definitely recommend.

I contacted Rapid Repair Drain Care at 8.15 in the morning, and by 3.15, thanks to a fortunate cancellation, the foul-smelling problem was totally solved. It was easy getting through to book a repair to our outside blocked drain for a large Victorian house. The drain, which is down the steps leading to the cellar had clearly been blocked for some time, but we had not noticed until we gone into the cellar. My efforts to clear it with a plunger had only made the smell and mess even worse. Simon and his assistant, Az, arrived when we said we would and quickly got to work. Some sort of plant life had got going in the drain, which had helped trap the usual kitchen that deposits. This foul stuff was quickly cleared number high-pressure hose was used to totally clear the main drain. The gallant crew also cleared the adjoining drain and willingly cleared up the mess that had been made by the overflow and my efforts at unblocking. All was completed within 44 minutes and we agreed first-hour charge. The whole operation was done with politeness, consideration and good-humour. I would recommend this firm for any drainage work.

At Trusted Fire Inspection Ltd, we pride ourselves on only working with businesses that offer the same outstanding service we do. We had a street drain that needing clearing & unblocking before new tarmac was laid. I discussed it with Simon & he offered me advice & provided contact details to liaise with the water board or alternatively if no luck with them then to contact the highways. Unfortunately neither party offered a solution so I reverted back to Simon. He sent me a link to upload some photos and provide the information as discussed. I was emailed within a few hours a quote and available dates to attend. On the date it was booked in I received a 1 hr slot of attendance and then I received a further text when we was ½ hour away. Simon cleared the drain and also did a CCTV survey to make sure everything was in order, provided me a copy of the report & photographic evidence of the CCTV Survey. Simon attended site on time, he was polite, conscientious and extremely clean & tidy whilst carrying out all the works. I would have no hesitation in recommending Simon at Rapid Repair Drain Care to my friends, colleagues & business contacts.

We had a problem with a drain blockage at my elderly fathers house. I rang on a Sunday afternoon expecting to leave a message but got straight through to Simon the owner. He arrived the following morning cleared the blockage and inspected the drain with a camera. He identified a couple of problems including a bodged repair by the insurance company a number of years ago. At all stages Simon was helpful and friendly, he carried out the work in a safe and professional manner and provided lots of photographs covering before and after repair. He completed the job a couple of days later sending another team to replace the bodged gully, again very pleasant and helpful people and lots of photographs. We knew exactly when he was due to turn up, everything was sent through via email so the job is very well documented. An extremely courteous and respectful team of people, they worked around dads needs and left me with a feeling of a job well done and lots of evidence to show dad. A real contrast my previous experience with the insurance company.

Rapid Repair Drain Care was recommended to us and he didn’t disappoint. Great service, friendly and very informative about what he was doing and what the issues were. One of issues isn’t within our boundary and he recommended we contact Yorkshire Water. He also provided the contact details. He’s pinpointed the other issue on our property and we will look at having that work completed by them in the near future. They provided a very professional service at a competitive price, he even knocked the second hour off even though he had gone in to that hour. Highly recommended.

We discovered a blocked drain on friday morning and searched the web for solutions. Well known names were not able to help before monday at the earliest. I remembered my local advertiser magazine and found Rapid Repaid Drain Care listed. I was impressed to see the Which logo and duly gave them a call. I immediately spoke to Simon who said he would call after lunch. I simply needed to send him my contact details, which I did. He said he would send me a message when he was setting off. I got the message just after lunch with an estimated time of 26 minutes to arrival, complete with a tracking link. I hate waiting for contractors so this was fabulous. To be entirely fair he was 28 minutes!! But my house is tricky to find! He immediately pointed out that because it was a shared drain Yorkshire Water would clear it for free and that he'd leave if that was what I wanted. Such honesty - Simon cleared the drain quickly, which is what I'd asked for and was happy to pay for, but he then proceeded to examine my drain and explain what I should do next, including providing contact details for Yorkshire Water. Speed, honesty and professional - awesome. And I couldn't believe the price - surely that isn't enough for what you did Simon!! Details and photos of my drain emailed to me along with paid invoice before I'd managed my first cup of tea and before he'd left the premises. Couldn't be improved. Simon completely exceeded expectations.

We rang Simon in the afternoon regarding our drain blockage. He put himself out to arrange to visit after all of his day's other work. Arriving after 7p.m., (we were relieved to see him) with a smile on his face he promptly got to work with his camera and jet water spray. After identifying the problem it was resolved and explained in a very competent manner and we were left with a recommendation of future remedial work. We would not hesitate to recommend Simon to others requiring urgent repairs to drains or similar.

Simon carried out the cleaning of the blocked kitchen drain. Maximum time 30 minutes. He said he would be with us in 20 minutes and he was. Most unusual but very welcomed. After he had cleared the drain he used CCTV to check his work and found a cracked drain and provided the phone number to the water company. Simon said because the drain was shared, with a neighbour, there should be no cost to us. In this day & age a brilliant service.

Not something you ever want to find, a blocked sewer. We found Rapid Repair Drain Care Ltd online and in our local area. The company had great reviews, so we thought we would give them a try, especially with them being a local business rather than a big national company. We are so glad we did. Simon arrived exactly when he said he would and we could even track his journey to us with a text and track service that he uses. He explained exactly what he was going to do and found the blockage in no time at all. Drains jetted, camera inspected and blockage removed all in under an hour. Would highly recommend Simon to anyone facing a blocked drain or sewer. Great service at a realistic price, well done. Steve, Rothwell Leeds.

Problem with bathroom hand basin waste turning up in kitchen sink! First day's plumber (sharp intake of breath and shaking head) gave doom laden diagnosis. Second day's man was Simon from above company. Five minutes in kitchen and his diagnosis "No problem, I'll get my stuff from the van"! In no time at all he was returning his kit to the van complete with the tennis ball sized "fatball" culprit! I wish I'd known about him sooner. Simon was professional, friendly and less expensive than similar drain care companies and I recommend you give him your first call for any plumbing drainage problems.

Found we had a blocked waste pipe when the washer showed faulty drainage. Cleaned the filter out and decided to check the manhole cover to check the faulty drain. No water getting through but it wasn't backing up and I looked through our doorstep magazine and found traders phone number. Trader came out the next day was fully prepared with the PPE and put camera down to find where the fault was. Everything explained and showed us on the screen where the fault was, used the jet to clear the blockage and then find out we had a collapsed pipe and cracked pipe (drains are original from 1935). Trader arranged for another company to come and fix the collapsed drain but he repaired the cracked drain with a resin sleeve. All work that was carried out caused little disruption. Would definitely recommend, it's nice to find someone genuine during this scamming world we live in.

We called RRDC on a Sunday afternoon because we had a partially-blocked and leaking toilet soil pipe outside the house. Simon gave an initial diagnosis over the phone and quoted for the work. The next day, he arrived on-time and gave a clear explanation of his plan of work. He used a combination of remote-controlled, high-pressure water jets and an underground camera to locate what turned out to be a collapsed section of the pipe. Once the cause had been located, he quoted for the fix and then proceeded to remove the collapsed section and replace it with a fibre+resin section. Throughout the work he showed his working (with video and photos) and explained everything. He even seemed to relish the unexpected problems we encountered. Throughout it all he was friendly, courteous and professional. I'd definitely use him again and recommend him to others.

Thankfully nothing major found, just required flushing some ground silt through. Happy to recommend. Thanks again Simon.

I had problems with blocked toilet that won't go away. Tried other services, but they were unable to resolve the problem. Finally we had Rapid Repair Draincare. Simon arrived Friday afternoon. After a quick survey, he was unable to find the source of the problem. Simon promised to return Saturday first thing in the morning with all this gear to survey the drains. Next day, Simon arrived as promised. He did the survey with his camera and soon found the source of the problem and the manhole. With the jet wash, the leaves that blocked the pipes are washed away. Very efficient and professional guy, kept me informed of the problems and solutions. Thanks to Simon, I have a working toilet.

Blocked main drain Saturday morning. Phoned Rapid Repair 10:13, arrived within 2hrs as promised. Simon (owner) embodies the term "competent person" having the knowledge, skill and experience. His confident and cheerful manner is reassuring. He cleared the blockage using a pressure jet and then used a camera to survey his work and the condition of the drain. This was all part of his standard charge unlike other companies who consider such check as an additional service. This was a good move as it identified ingress of tree roots growth through cracks plus some blobs of mortar from the original construction (from the 1920's - cause of recurring problems). Simon offered an additional, charged service to remove the roots. I accepted this very reasonable charge and he used a cutting attachment to remove the roots. He then put considerable effort in to remove the mortar blobs (I wasn't expecting this) making the pipe the clearest it's ever been. Simon quoted for relining the pipe at a future appointment to repair cracks and prevent further ingress of roots to the drain. Observing Simon shows he takes pride in doing good work; a thoroughly good bloke. I've used other companies but none come anywhere near to the standard of Rapid Repair Draincare. PS. He'll show you the camera image - if you've the stomach for full "motion" footage!

We went to Simon as a 'Which trusted company' and the company didn't disappoint. Simon came to do a site visit, identified the issue and provided us with a solution very quickly. A quote was received, which was extremely reasonable for the work to be done. He then appointed another team headed by Ric to come out do a site visit as they would excavating the site to fit a drain and soak-away. Ric discussed exactly what was to be done and started the following day arriving on time with his team. They were very professional, extremely hard working especially as they were hand digging a 5 meter trench and pit in temperatures close to 80F. They completed the work ahead of schedule, to a very high standard despite the complexity of what was required and all done by hand due to the fact it was not possible for machinery to access the site. Simon, Ric and the team did a fantastic job. we would definitely employ them again if required and would recommend to friends without hesitation.

Another company had done a CCTV survey but then not provided the promised proposal & quote for the work needed. Despite being an hour away from where Rapid Repair Drain Care are based, Simon was willing to help. Over the phone he explained what was the most likely problem and what he'd do about it (including the price.) On the day he was delayed by a previous job, but rather than cancelling (as I'm sure many companies would have done), he came and arrived at mine at 6pm on a Fri. He then spent 2 hours: Checking what the problem was Explaining to me what needed doing (confirming what I'd been told on the phone) Doing the work Checking and showing me it'd been successful before tidying up and heading home. Despite having had such a long day, he was friendly and helpful with a positive attitude.

You need have no concerns that Rapid Repair Drain Care is a fly-by-night operation! Simon, whose business it is, is very knowledgeable and skilled. He spent more than the two hours he charged me, not only cleaning the blocked drain, which he did within the first hour but then, at my request, inspected all the other drains. He didn't mind me hovering over him all the time he was working and he showed me what his camera was revealing, which included the tree roots that had started to enter the pipework! I can unreservedly recommend him.
