From leaving a voicemail to paying the invoice, the service provided by the Drainmaster Team has been superb. Messages were replied to promptly, the team turned up well within 20 hours of the initial voicemail being left on a Sunday evening, and all queries were handled professionally. Clear information was provided, so even a novice on drain systems like myself could understand. Would not hesitate to use the company again and would recommend it to anyone with a drain issue. Iain Brown2025-01-07Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Good company. Good coms. Came on time. Friendly guys who knew their business. Problem solved. Fair price. I’d use them again. John Bailey2024-12-29Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Slightly cheaper than others I contacted. I was very pleased with the service. The guys had to come back with additional equipment to get the jobs done as the blockage was 40m from the rodding eye but didn't charge extra for two visits. The guys provided clear details of what the issue was and how it had been resolved. John Clark2024-11-20Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Responded and sorted out our blockage very quickly. Excellent service. Anne Urry2024-10-18Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Pat and Ross were complete stars! They turned up at our small hotel in Pitlochry (Rosemount), within an hour of my call, to resolve a drain blockage (caused by facewipes and bamboo toilet paper). This prompt attention was greatly appreciated, especially in view of the fact that the company is based in Perth, 27 miles away. Not only did they do a great job, but gave us good advice about using so much bamboo toilet paper in one, multi-bathroom location. It doesn't break up fast enough when in the drain, so volumes become problematic. Thank you guys!Load more

Frequently Asked
Questions
Drain excavation involves digging to access and repair underground drainage pipes. It is usually required when the pipe is collapsed, severely damaged, or when no other repair methods are effective.
