We received a fully detailed survey informing us the septic tank was no longer compliant and further more had to be replaced due to soak away no longer working which without knowing would have cost us after the sale. Once we moved in James installed a new system as he quoted on the survey and everything went smoothly I would highly recommend James and his company to anyone requiring this type of work." > Source: Anonymous (5.0, via Checkatrade) > "I strongly recommend James James was friendly, professional, and very knowledgeable, explaining everything clearly and honestly. The inspection was thorough and the report was clear, detailed, and provided promptly. James made the whole process straightforward and stress-free, and his calm, approachable manner really stood out. I wouldn’t hesitate to recommend his services to anyone needing a septic tank inspection." > Source: Anonymous (5.0, via Checkatrade) > "We contacted James after our septic tank kept blocking. He came out quickly to do a survey and identify the problem ( a failing soakaway) and was able to book us in to have the work completed a few weeks later. Robin and Rob who carried out the work were excellent - they just got on with the job in hand, whilst making the time to explain the process to me when I went out for a look! Throughout the process, James was professional and knowledgeable, but also took the time to explain everything to me & answer my questions. I would 100% recommend James to anyone with a septic issue!" > Source: Anonymous (5.0, via Checkatrade) ## Trades Plumber ## Services they list _Listed on public sources or the business's own website; check directly that they cover your job before you book:_ - 24 Hour Drain Clearance - Blocked Drains - CCTV Surveys for Drains - Drain Installation - Drain Repair - Drainage Investigation - Septic Tank Installation - Septic Tank Repair - Sewage Pump Installation - Sewage Pump Maintenance - Soakaway Clearance - Waste Water Treatment Plant Installations ## Areas covered _Towns and areas this trader lists serving.

Where we hold a date, the check shows it. ## Before you hire a plumber _What to check when choosing this kind of trade (general guidance, not a claim about this business):_ - Agree 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. - For the water-regulations side of plumbing, a WaterSafe-approved plumber is vetted, qualified to the water regulations and insured. You can check yours or find one free at watersafe.org.uk. - Look for consistent reviews across several named sources, not one polished profile. ## Contact - Phone: 07727 625464 --- Source: MyTrustedTraders, https://mytrustedtraders.com/traders/staffordshire-septics-drainage-ltd Real public evidence only: every figure traces to its named source.
