Brendan and Ben attended to our blocked drains last week on Napier Hill. We couldn’t have asked for a better company to come out and sort this out for us. They were super thorough and quick to diagnose the problem and fix it! I highly recommend them for all drainway work. Thank you team!
Really impressed with how quickly the boys at Drainways attend to our sewer issue. They sent us photos and a video of the drain and identified the issue, gave a solution and a quote. Highly recommend A+
We had an incredible experience with the entire Drainways team. From the moment they came and measured out the work required to connect us to Council mains water, to providing the quote as promised, then helping us navigate the Council processes and finally when the Project Manager was appointed and the team on the ground came to do the actual work. Everyone was a pleasure to deal with and the work was completely quickly and professionally even when some of it was in the rain! Couldn’t have asked for more, thanks Drainways Team! AAA+++
Excellent service by Drainways, had the same day service, received photos of the issue and a recommended solution to the issue going forward. Would highly recommend
Really impressed with how the whole team worked without hassle. Everyone solved problems, was responsive and hassle free. Really reasonable crowd with a professional nature.
