    The company gave very clear explanations for what they were doing and communicated well throughout.

    Posted 22 January

    My mother had a problem with a soak away that was not working, which caused a damp patch to appear at the base of an outside wall. Arron, from Thames Drains, came to investigate the problem. He carried out a very careful investigation and recommended some work to be done (install a replacement soak away). He then carried out the work, along with his colleague Riley. They worked very hard and communicated throughout the project, sending numerous WhatsApp messages, photos and videos to make sure we always knew what was going on. I was very impressed with Arron, Riley and the company.

    Pumping Station Installation

    Posted 14 January

    The Thames Drains team, headed up by Alex, did a good job installing our sewage pumping station tank into our garden, then digging about 50m of trenching to our septic tank and making all the connections. Garden was re-instated, and they did a good job of routing the piping around our mature trees and garden.
