Response evidence

Missing evidence lowers the score because we can't check it. It doesn't mean it doesn't exist. Claiming a profile never changes the score. Evidence context, not a guarantee of workmanship.

How quickly they respond

What their website advertises:

  • 24/7 Emergency Service
  • "24/7 Emergency Service No Call Out Charges 2 Hour Response Times Fast, Friendly & Professional No Clear, No Charge Policy"

What customers mention:

  • Arrived within hours: "George was round within the hour." (Checkatrade, 9 Apr 2024)

Use this as a reason to call them first, not a guarantee they can attend now. Confirm availability, timing, and call-out terms directly before you rely on it.

George was very helpful from the start, I had an issue with my drains and George came out surveyed the line, found a hole and done a patch repair. Fixing my issue. Cannot recommend him enough. Thank you

Have a kitchen with poorly laid pipes. When they block, both dishwasher and washing machine are out of action at nil notice. George always fits me in quickly and is a pleasure to deal with. Would highly recommend!

Had an issue with a blocked toilet. Found DrainLocal via Check A Trade and George was round within the hour. Professional from start to finish and issue solved within one hour. Great price and would use again if any further issues
