Highlights

"Kent Drainage; were very helpful with a professional approach and high customer focus and satisfaction, especially Rob Pollard (Director)& James (Onsite Engineer)"

"The company rep, Carl, went above and beyond to ensure that the sewer was unblocked. It was not quite a straightforward job. Initial investigation with the camera showed that there was a second manhold nearby which needed to be chexked and cleared. We checked with neighbours but found that theirs was not the issue. Came back on site, he investigated further and said the second manhold was very close. With no visible sign, he dug around the area suspected, right under part of the driveway, we found the second one. He patiently worked at it until all was sorted. Highly recommended"

An engineer came to my house to assess a puddle of water I had in the kitchen and said they had to drill into my waste pipe outside and put a camera in it to assess the damage. After doing this the engineer said he couldn't see anything there and suggested I spend over £1,000 to drill into the kitchen floor so he could investigate further as he couldn't find the source of the leak. Two days later a plumber from another company came to look, and simply tightened the pipes. Now the external waste pipe the KD Drainage engineer drilled into is leaking and they are refusing to fix it. Stay away.
