Skilled & experienced

Fair fixed pricing
You know the price before we start. No surprises.
Honest advice

FAQs
Common questions about our drainage service
How quickly can you get to me?
We aim to be on site the same day for any genuine drain emergency across our Yorkshire service area, and next day at the latest if we are fully booked. Call the 24-hour line on 01757 429296 and we will give you a realistic ETA.
Do you charge extra for evenings and weekends?
We are upfront about our pricing whatever the time of day. You will get a fixed quote before any work starts so there are no surprises on the invoice, whether it is two in the morning or two in the afternoon.
Do you charge extra to put a camera down the drain?
When you book us to clear or unblock a drain, a camera look is included at no extra cost, so you can see what actually caused the problem rather than taking our word for it. Plenty of firms charge separately for that on top of the unblocking, and we do not. It is part of the unblocking job rather than a free standalone service, so if you only want a full CCTV survey and written report on its own, that is a separate job we will happily quote for.
What areas do you cover?
We cover the whole of Yorkshire, including Hull, York, Leeds, Wakefield, Doncaster, Selby, Harrogate, Goole, Pontefract, Pocklington and every village in between. Our base is in Barlow, near Selby.
Are you fully insured?
Yes. We carry a comprehensive insurance policy covering public liability and all the work we do, on domestic and commercial properties.
Can you handle insurance-claim work?
Absolutely. We work directly with loss adjusters and provide full CCTV footage and written reports for subsidence, escape of water and storm-damage claims.
