Repair and replacement of external drain.

Wow! What a great job Wicklen have done! We had been having issues with an external drain for a long while and eventually, it became completely blocked. We contacted Keith and he came to look at the problem the next day. We were happy with the quoted price and agreed to go ahead with the work. Keith and his team arrived punctually the very next day and worked extremely hard, keeping us fully informed with the progress of the work. They were very polite, friendly and worked neatly. We are incredibly delighted with the completed job; the drain has never worked as well! We would very highly recommend Wicklen specialist drainage without hesitation.

We contacted Wicklen Ltd as our garage kept flooding. A survey was arranged immediately, which identified various other issues in 100 year old drainage system. These were clearly explained & thorough plan of works recommended. The team completed the works over the next 7 days in an extremely professional & tidy manner. We were kept informed at every stage, & are delighted with the results which have improved the drainage and appearance of our home immeasurably. An extremely experienced, professional, friendly, hard working team, & we could not have wished to work with better people. Thank you

We had a drain survey prior to some additional drainage being added. Wicklen identified a defect by a previous builder and also old drain section cracked. We authorised Wicklen to carry out the repairs and install our new drain. The team were brilliant and did a fantastic job, leaving everywhere clean and tidy. Their work ethic and commitment to the job was obvious. They talked us through options and also what and why they had done things. I would highly recommend Wicklen for all your drain needs.

Wicklen were able to carry out a drainage survey on our property at very short notice and completed remediation works within one week of completing the survey. Site was left in a clean and tidy state and you would not have know that work had even been carried out. Cannot fault the service. Excellent company to deal with.

Having recently bought our house we asked Wicklen to replace some of the old clay drains. Keith came out to us promptly and agreed to undertake the work in the new year. We were kept informed throughout the work and everything was left clean and tidy. We would use again and trust the team’s knowledgeable and experience.

Clear information given about the way the work I was requesting -( replacing some 1980's drains with more modern and non leaky ones) - would be done. They came when they said and kept me informed of the progress, showed me the work as it progressed. The areas they worked in were left clear and tidy and everything looks as if it will function properly. They seemed knowledgeable about their trade. The price was as agreed at the start.

No call back
I contacted this company primarily as they are a Which trusted trader, but also as they had a number of good reviews . I submitted an online contact form, briefly explaining what the issue was and attached an image of the affected area. Keith from the company contacted me back the next day. He said he hadn't seen the image I had sent and he had merely been asked to give me a call. I explained what the problem was. After learning of my location Keith went on to tell me that the company was very busy at the moment and they wouldn't be able to come out until April. He therefore suggested I contact a more local company, and suggested some things they should investigate. I explained that I was happy to wait given their reputation and picking a local company out of the phone book wasn't the same as having a Which trusted trader. Keith said he understood this so he would speak to his engineer and contact me back the following night. A week later, I'm still waiting for the phone call. This may be a very good company but I will never know. What I do know is that this is not the level of service I expect from a Which or Trustatrade recommended company. If you say you're going call back, then call back, even if it's just to say you're not interested in the job.

Which Trusted Traders are responding to this review to clarify the situation following speaking with the trader. The trader received photos of the work but with no information of the area where the customer was located. On speaking with the customer they found out they lived in Shropshire and this is not an area where the trader operates. The trader explained this to the customer who asked them to provide an alternative trader the response given was to to look locally for a reputable company with Trade Association(s) to their name. The Which? Trusted Traders system brings traders up based on distance from the customers postcode/town and does not make it fully clear where traders operate, we are sorry if this has caused confusion.

We recruited this company to investigate a sewage smell coming up into our property, we were starting to lose hope as many other supplier had investigated but couldn’t get to the bottom of it. Much to our surprise within a few days the issue was identified. We instructed them to progress and carry on the work, we were in a rush to get the issue sorted. Despite a busy calendar the company had moved things around and started that week, within one week the issue was resolved and the smell removed from the house. We were very impressed with their capability , professionalism and efficiency to get the job done. If we have any other issues they will be the first company we call!

Keith came to check out the problem. They were able to attend the next week and worked through freezing weather for three days identifying and correcting the problems. They are a friendly and enthusiastic team and worked hard. They are very tidy and very helpful. We have used them before and would do again and would recommend them to friends and neighbours.
