 (5/5)   8th October 2012 3:00 pm - Our Favourite Review

Clearing and relining severely blocked and, in places, cracked storm water drains. Previously, three different plumbers had either shied away from the hard work ("We'll get back to you" - and they never did) or tried and failed. The combination of The Drain Man's use of top technology and highly competent, professional and pleasant employees meant that the job was carried out thoroughly, in the process highlighting and fixing problems arising from previous work done to the drains over the years. This all took some time and hence cost was considerable. But this should be justified by there being - for the first time in years - no more flooding and overflowing. I am now just waiting until it rains hard!

Location of leak in grey water waste pipe. The inspection was done very expeditiously and efficiently. We later received a DVD with vision of the whole process with voice-over commentary.

Very impressive, I’ve had a problem for many years with our main sewer line blocking up on a very regular basis, Numerous plumbers, some not being even able to clear the blockage, I called the drain man out of desperation, he located the pipes and found Inspection openings I never knew existed, High pressure cleaned the pipes and Video inspected the pipes of any damage.

Highly professional, Efficient, knowledgeable, on time and they keep you informed at what I call a comparative price for services offered.

I won’t waste my time with anyone else should I have a recurrent problem.

Repair and resleeving of storm water and sewerage drains that had not been able to be repaired by other plumbers over many years owing to faulty workmanship and non perseverance to carry out a proffessional and satisfactory job. The Drain Man has the best employees who make sure the job is done properly and he should be proud of their attitude to their work.

Had quite a severe drain blockage a few weeks ago, and the drain man was quick to respond and did a very good job, and more importantly, very quickly
