An appalling company that lies, i had a job booked for today i was told 8am i then rang at 9am to see where they were, i was told then it would be between 8-1pm. Nobody arrived at 1pm, so I rang again and was told if i could wait a moment so they could ring up my landlord. The operative then came back on the phone and told me that i had no job booked, i replied well thats funny as somebody from your company had rang me yesterday & booked a job for today. I then ring up my landlord to get them to book a job again and make enquiries, i then rang London drainage to ask for their website, and the operative asked me if there was a problem, she then informed me that i did have a job booked for today but they are running behind. So London drainage LIED and made up all these fibs, like i was going crazy having this phantom booking, and calls from them the previous day. I knew they were lying and they were, due to them being busy they lied and made up this fabrication of not having my original appointment WHO THE HELL DOES THIS ??? DISGUSTING AND RUDE DO NOT TRUST THIS IDIOTIC COMPANY

Complete nightmare of a job from start to (not quite) finish. They were tasked with fixing a leak in the property next to mine, in the process of which they narrowed the communal pipes so much that my toilet and shower kept blocking. It took 18 months and thousands of pounds for them to find the fault. Throughout that period, I did not have access to a functioning bathroom on 29 separate occasions, having to spend a night away from my property for a total of 18 days. I consistently highlighted that the issue only arose the moment they had ‘fixed’ the leak and was gaslighted into believing that there may be a separate issue with my own plumbing – but hundreds of pounds to a different company confirmed that this was categorically not the case. Best of all, London Drainage eventually broke and had to replace my toilet (which was never the problem to begin with). They were booked to finally repair the actual fault on January 15th, 2024, but I have just been informed that this needed to be rescheduled to January 31st – no doubt I will have further instances of not being able to use my bathroom in the meantime.

Your engineers, who arrived without prior appointment, had no clue how to clear the drains. Caused more damage to the flat. Now we have leaks from 3 other places. Wouldn’t trust your company ever again. The landlords would be horrified if they saw this.

Terrible after-sales service, avoid at all costs! I spoke with London Drainage Facilities to find out the reason I was having issues with my toilet drains. The engineer who arrived was professional and helpful, that was unfortunately where the good parts end. They require you to pay a 2 hour deposit of over £220. They said the job would most likely take less time and they would refund any time used. The engineer was here for no longer than 1 hour. They refused to refund anything, with them lying saying the engineer arriving 30 minutes before he actually turned up. I provided evidence showing his phone call. The customer service director, Lucie Fuller, was quite arrogant lying about this and also stated the engineer needed to draw up a plan of the property in his car which could take 45 mins (literally looks like a 5-10 min job) especially as he wrote up all the stats and details at the property. So the engineer was here for 1hr and maybe needed a maximum of 15/20 mins to write up the reports. During this time, Lucie, failed to respond and reply to me and was very disorganised. Following this, the person who was very helpful when booking and taking my money, Craig Norton, Operations Manager said he would review all the information and come back to me same day. Many days and weeks have gone by with no response despite chasing. I then started trying to get hold from Craig all of this week with them dodging my calls with them being in non-stop meetings all day long apparently. Still awaiting a partial refund for the time that was not used and will be contacting my bank for a chargeback. I will also be advising my building management to avoid these cowboys as if there is an after-sales issue, they don't care at all.

Dear Will Thank you for taking the time to provide your review. Many of your points are unfortunately incorrect, I have provided you with a time line of events and a clear explanation of how we charge. All events were recorded by tracker reports, time stamps and system upload reports. I gave a timely response to your query based on fact when it was brought to my attention. We are a ethical, honest company – hence our reputation and growth. I will not refund the charges as you were charged correctly but I’m happy to donate the value of the job (£199) to a charity of your choice, let me know which one. Kind Regards Lucie Fuller
