Plumber - Plum Force Direct - Do not use!


TLC

Recommended Posts

After having a blocked drain we called in Plumbforcedirect.co.uk. Prior to booking a plumber we explained we had tried to manually unblock the drain, but it needed more specialist equipment. They quoted approx ?80. When the plumber arrived it turned out the fee was for them to manually unblock the drain which was not what we had needed. The company then quoted us a further ?395 to unblock the drain with 'machinery'. This is a ridiculous amount of money. The previous time we'd paid a company to do this it was approx ?80 with equipment. We were not prepared to pay this amount , so the plumber left, however we still had to pay ?80 + VAT for a totally useless visit. And in fact my husband then managed to manually unblock the drain himself, which the Plum Force direct had not managed to do. We will not use them again, expensive and useless.

    • Before going to Social Media it is always worth checking out the details: Southwark's spending for this year: https://www.southwark.gov.uk/council-tax/how-we-manage-council-tax/our-budget-and-how-we-spend-council-tax/our-income-and As you will see, as with most if not all London Boroughs, shed loads goes on social care and children's services.  The cost of paying for residential care, and for 'specialist schools is massive.  As with other boroughs they have been hit hard by austerity under the coalition government.  And the failure by successive governments to sort out social care.  That is a thread all in its own rights. Local authorities of all political persuasions across England are facing tough times, several have gone into administration: Birmingham, Woking, Thurrock, Croydon, Slough, Northamptonshire, and Nottingham and 11 are on bailouts.   Covid will not have helped.  Some will have made some poor investment decisions in the past eg Thurrock and Woking;  Some total mismanagement and one has been hit by historical debt through not paying their workers fairly (Brum).   Reform promise simple solutions to cutting spending.  Not that easy is it Nige?
