    Unblocked drains

    “Leon and Dorin from Drain Doctor were fantastic! They were friendly, professional, and very thorough in their work. Nothing was too much trouble for them, and they made sure everything was sorted properly before they left. Highly recommend their services!”

    Lovely lads looked in the communal drain and rang Northumbria Water. Will save Drain Doctor number just in case for future.

    Drain blocked

    Posted 24 May

    I called for a review of slow flushing toilet and the potential of the drain being blocked. The appointment was made for mid morning to lunchtime and that I would be called when the guys were on their way. I received the call and they turned up 25 minutes later, took less than 5 mins to confirm the drain was blocked. We agreed the worked that needed to be done and the fee and the whole job was completed within the hour. Leon and Dorin were very nice and friendly kept me up to date with what was going on. I totally recommend Drain Doctor for any drainage issues you may have.
