Very happy with work carried out by Cameron and Ben of DCL, drains. They installed a new soakaway as well as doing other drainage works. Both very polite, prompt and professional. They kept me up to speed throughout on what they were doing and keen to ensure I was happy with every aspect of their work. Highly recommend.Verified reviewerJob location: GU51- MMatteo
10 Fix a leakage of my bidet after previous plumber failed to fix it
Posted 16 December
The best part was the communication and the detailed plan they came up with to do a first fix immediately.Verified reviewerJob location: GU46 10 DCL cleared the blockage quickly enabling re-use bathroom and en-suite
Posted 16 December
DCL responded quickly to my leak call out and upstairs backup in shower drain preventing use of bathroom and en-suite. After TRACE troubleshooting they determined the cause was a drains blockage problem correctly. At all the steps they kept me briefed on the issues and actions being taken. I am very pleased to say they cleared the blockage in the same day and we could use the bathroom and en-suite again. I would recommend DCL Drains & Plumbing, they are experts, and get the job done at cost and time committed. Excellent service, thank you!Verified reviewerJob location: GU5210 The company to use for all your drainage and plumbing needs.

Posted 15 December
We had a water leakage problem where we could hear the sound but couldn’t see any visible damage or dampness. Des was extremely helpful in locating the source of the issue in the least invasive way possible. Really appreciate the effort—thank you, Des!Verified reviewerJob location: GU4

Thank you for looking at our Checkatrade page.
We are a small team of drainage and plumbing experts that brings you over 20 years of experience in the industry.
We use top quality, leading drainage clearance equipment which is designed to have the job completed efficiently the first time.
We cover all aspects of drainage and plumbing from drain camera rat investigations to unblocking sinks and fixing taps.
We have enough experience to diagnose the problem over the phone and so therefore have fixed prices that remain the same.
We also have some new, improved gutter cleaning equipment that allows us to show you camera footage of the blockage, both before and after the clean. This gives you peace of mind that the cleaning has been carried out effectively.
We carry out an enhanced “soak-away treatment process” that aims to keep your soak-aways clean and maintained: this is far cheaper than a full replacement which can run into thousands of pounds.
We feel that we are big enough to cope but small enough to care. It may sound strange, but we enjoy our job! It can be a household task that many homeowners will not wish to tackle, so let us do the dirty work for you.
