10 Drain / Sewer Clearance
Posted 1 week ago
A company you can trust
Turned out to be first class company. On making contact to help with a blocked main drain. I was given clarity on the costs. No call out fees and I had someone attend within the hour to sort things out It required a further visit which to remove fat residue that had built up after many years. Again I was given clarity. On what the cost would be and when it would be and was completed. So 100% satisfied.Verified reviewerJob location: BN14Response from Coastal Drains Ltd

Drain was badly blocked, they worked hard for nearly 3 hours and did a fantastic job unblocking a difficult blockage. Warned me when the hour was nearly up each time too, to help me manage costs.

10 Blocked Drains
Posted 03 June
Blocked drains outside for rain drainage issue
Daryl and Ryan were absolutely brilliant. The back of my house has been extremely damp for many years and finally we realised that it was probably the rain Water not being able to escape properly. The guys came in without any fuss & CCTV the area and managed to unblock a very old blocked up hole. They worked hard and they were extremely clean and professional very polite. They left everything as it was and I was so happy they managed to sort the problem out which will help with the management of damp at the rear of our house.Verified reviewerJob location: BN43RJustine SResponse from Coastal Drains Ltd

10 Blocked Drains
Posted 07 May
brilliant service from a top employee
George from coastal was amazing, came out to a sewage blockage within 1 hour, he located the source of the blockage which was outside my property and cleared the issue . George went over and above to sort out the issue which should have been resolved by SOUTHERN WATER who refused to come out. Thank you GeorgeVerified reviewerJob location: BN43Response from Coastal Drains Ltd
