"I had 3 blocked gullies to clean out. Darren appeared bang on time - maybe slightly early and having quickly surveyed the job just cracked on with it. Within an hour all 3 gullies had been unblocked and were flowing freely. An excellent job and I couldn’t be happier. I would unhesitatingly employ Darren again!"

"Darren was really helpful from our initial Phone call to coming out and sorting out blocked outside drain. I would highly recommend."
"Darren was an absolute god-send. Came out within 2 days of first contact, accommodated my schedule with timing. Took off shoes before coming upstairs. Turns out the issue was a very simple fix and instead of blagging the situation, Darren showed complete honesty - 5 min discussion/fix- for which Darren did not charge - albeit I would have been very happy to pay considering he generously gave his time to travel out to me. Complete legend."
