"After years of calling in various gutter cleaners and other companies to see about what appear to be a blocked downpipe that was causing internal damage to the house and hoping they would have a good look and suggest ideas for the problem, they merely cleaned a bit of mud and considered the issue solved. It wasn't, the problem always return. I was hesitant to keep doing the same year after year.
Then I drove by the office of Drain Smart and felt they seemed like the company I need for the issue. I then check them out on Google and book a visit. Their approach was different. They were looking for a solution, checked the main drain on the first visit to quote. So I booked them. Ed and Jack came to do the work a few days later. Very polite young men.
They dug down to see where to flow went, if to drains or a soakaway, jet washed the main drain, which they called in another company to do, cut away the old rusty copper pipe and created a new opening for the water to flow. Hopefully better, as the where to the water flowed to was not fully established. It was left that this might work, see how it goes but a new soakaway system might be needed. I have confidence in Drain Smart that they would be back at moments notice to sort any issue. They were tidy and the ground was left looking undisturbed. I can recommend them."

"A good experience, would recommend. We had been let down by another drain survey company and so I tried DrainSmart. I was looking to get a drain survey and I was really impressed from the start - following my request there was a quick response with all the details that I needed. When I made a booking it was also a quick response. The engineers turned up on time and completed the survey with the minimum of fuss. I had ordered the rapid report and indeed it arrived on time. So for us, it was a good experience, the office staff were really efficient, the engineers were on time and we got our report in good time."

"Ed & Jack managed to solve the mystery of our missing manhole and left the area in a better state than when they found it. They not only probed the drain but managed to neatly cut away and make good both the downpipe and the sink outlet. Their stone work was as good as their plumbing. If you call Drainsmart, ensure you ask for Ed & Jack!"

"In the last month Drain Smart have carried out CCTV drain surveys for us on 3 properties that we are developing. They have always turned up at the agreed times, carried out the surveys and provided detailed plans and reports within a few days of the visit. When arranging surveys on the phone and by email communication has been very easy and during the visits their representatives have been helpful and informative. We would happily recommend their services to other customers."

"Just bought a bungalow. Drainsmart did the cctv check and this brought to light problems which helped negotiate a purchase price reduction. Engaged Drainsmart to carry out known fault repair work and this brought to light further drainage problems on the rainwater side. Drainsmsrt were vrry supportive through this new set of problems. They worked out various options for me with skillfully drawn up plans and costings. The quotes were not cheap but they were given the go ahead to install new drainage gulleys and a large soakaway in our back garden. Plan expected to take two engineers six to seven working days. These guys worked their socks off from 8am each day till their shift end. They were always on time, courteous and extremely helpful. I now know why the quote was so high and I do not begrudge them one penny of this. I would have no hesitation in recommending Drainsmart to anyone. The boss, Tony, was always willing to talk over anything I did not understand and I valued his advice. The two guys he sent to our home were brilliant. Hard working, knowledgable and the finished work is great. All areas cleaned up and made good. All work guaranteed 15 years. Need I say more. Thanks to the whole Drainsmart team."

"We required a survey of the drains on purchasing a new property. Following the camera findings, we proceeded with some remedial works which included the installation of a structural soft felt liner inside the internal section of the main soil pipe. We have been satisfied with the speed at which Drainsmart were able to come to site to inspect, to submit their report and to carry out the work at a reasonable cost. We found the attending technician extremely professionally competent, knowledgable and forthcoming with information requested."
