Blocked Drains

The london water board recently sent out a leaflet saying that main drainage was now their remit.


I do not know what your particular problem is, but I would call them first and see if they can help. I should be free if it is main drainage/waste issues. Maybe!!

Having relied on this forum for a reputable company to inspect a leak from our drainpipes I was very pleased with Jon's work and can highly recommend him. He was very knowledgeable and had suspected the leak was a blockage. This job was not for the fainthearted and he and his son resolved the issue through rodding pipes, cctv inspection and cleaning up well.


If your needing someone to inspect your drains - drainpipes and sewage pipes Jon is the guy you need. Very reasonable rates too.

I can recommend Dave from Down the Drain, he sorted my drains out which had been blocked for ages very quickly and flushed lots of lovely disinfectant down them, to get rid of the dreadful smell. He was extremely responsive and came over within 4 hours of calling.

His charges are extremely reasonable.


Call him on 07919107868 or 0208 314 5244

Just had Jon from drains and mains after being recommended on here. He came over on a Sunday to help fix my blocked drains. His persistence meant the water was back flowing after less than an hour of being here (something dynorod failed to do). He is very reasonably priced and a great chap to boot. Thanks to the forum for putting me on to him.

I would like to recommend Dave from Down the Drain. We had a blocked outside drain, this seems to happen every few years. So far we've always had a well known company in, charging us a small fortune. Thought I'd try Dave. He arrived at the time we agreed, did the job and his prices are extremely competitive. Very nice guy as well! Highly recommended.


His phone number: 07919 107868 or 020 83145244

Another vote for Dave from Down The Drain. Our drains issue was much more complicated than it seemed at the outset. Dave was really clear about what needed doing, did the job well and charged a very reasonable rate for the amount of work that was required. Lovely chap too. Highly recommended.

Can recommend Don The Drain - polite, friendly, and knows his stuff.


Unblocked years of debris from our shared rainwater drain and checked everything was flowing properly all in just under an hour! Turned up on time and stuck to his original quote of ?80.


Would recommend to other ED Forum members.


Don The Drain is on 0793 370956 or 0208 677 3062

Happy to recommend Dave from Down the Drain: 0208 314 5244 / 07919 107868. He phoned me back when he said he would and came out quickly, and sorted our problem quickly and efficiently. Nice guy, too - gave me advice that will save me money in future!

Another recommendation for Dave from Down The Drain. I originally called him a few months ago for a problem that, rather embarrassingly, resolved itself before he arrived. But despite the fact that he had spent half an hour looking for our flat in Tulse Hill ( I am rubbish at giving directions) and then found he had no job to do once he got there, he refused to charge any call out fee and offered my husband advise that would mean we could fix things ourselves next time.


I called him last Friday afternoon about a blocked kitchen drain, he came around first thing on Saturday morning and the problem was resolved within half an hour.


Dave is fast, efficient, very fairly priced and just a very nice guy. We feel very secure knowing if our drains start messing around we will have Dave to help us out. :)

    • I think insurance scams do happen but I thought there had been a crackdown on them recently. In the past insurance companies seemed to just pay out and everyone's premium goes up to cover it. My partner was a victim a few years ago, she was parking and touched a bumper of the next car. There was no mark and the other driver just waved my partner away. A month later we received a letter claiming there were four people in the other car and two of them were so badly injured they could not work. Our insurer was a rare one that actually fought the case and pretty much on the steps of the court the scammers "dropped hands" and case was closed. i thought at the time that was a good result but I later saw that my insurer had run up a £2000 legal bill and didn't get to ask for costs as there was no court case – we didn't have to pay it but again, it's this sort of thing that pushes all premiums up. And no action was taken against the other party despite them clearly being scammers who were revealed to have done this before and had effectively admitted their own statements were a pack of lies. Sorry to hijack your thread, just getting this off my chest as your post brought it all flooding back!
