“Outside drain from kitchen blocked. I phoned, got an instant response and was offered an email quote. Shortly afterwards, they phoned back and said they had someone available in the area, which would normally make me wary, but based on good reviews, I accepted. The price quoted was for up to an hour's work, without VAT (why?), but I checked, so not surprised on receiving the invoice. The engineer was with us in around an hour, set to work on a tricky blockage and was cleared in around 35 minutes. Very polite engineer with good communication skills. Happy customer, thank you.”

Highlights
“Brilliant in every respect. Numerous issues were found with the old drainage system, and Rutland came up with novel solutions that were fully compliant with regulations (where other companies failed). Highly recommended.”
“We used Rutland Drainage to remove an old septic tank and install a new treatment plant. They were bright and early every morning, thoroughly impressed with the work carried out. They went above and beyond when doing the finishing touches and would highly recommend this company.”

Approved plumbers on the free WaterSafe register are vetted, qualified to the water regulations and insured. Check they're listed, or find a WaterSafe-approved plumber near you.
Check the WaterSafe registerAgree the call-out fee, the hourly or fixed rate, and whether parts are charged on top, in writing, before an emergency plumber starts. Out-of-hours overcharging and 'while I'm here' add-ons are common complaints.
Be wary of a plumber who, on a first visit, says your whole system or boiler must be replaced. Get a second opinion and an itemised quote (parts and labour separately) before agreeing to major work.
Gas and boiler work is a separate, regulated trade, not general plumbing. Make sure anyone working on a gas appliance is specifically registered to do gas work, and ask to see that registration before they start.
