Second time I have used this company and wouldn’t go anywhere else. They respond very quickly, leave everything spotless and charge a fair price. I’m a very happy customer.

He was in the area when I called and came straight round. Very efficiently sorted problem, gave advice as to how to prevent reoccurrence and also how we could try to resolve ourselves if problem crops up again. Very pleased with friendly service given.

I refer to the Little Green Directory on many occasions and more recently contacted A Better Drainflow Ltd in Earley regarding a suspected toilet blockage at my home. The response to my telephone call was immediate and Don arrived at my home very shortly afterwards. His thorough investigation, diagnosis and solution dealt with the problem. I would have no hesitation in recommending Don and his firm and would certainly contact him again should the need arise.

If you want a professional who does not mind listening to your drainage problem, offering advice, and helping you review your options, this is the man for you. I left an evening voicemail which was promptly followed-up with a no-nonsense and honest 10 minute response. No charge. 5 stars for integrity. Thank you.

Prompt, professional and reasonably priced. Don was able to attend on the day I contacted him. He successfully cleared a drain blockage caused by tree roots in a professional and efficient manner and gave advice on what additional action was required to prevent recurrence. Highly recommended.

Excellent service and well priced. They responded very quickly to my enquiry, booked a slot that was really close, and were then on time, efficient, and followed up with good advice on how to avoid future problems. Will definitely use again.

My husband had to call out Don to a blocked drain in Wokingham which he had trouble clearing. Don came out promptly and was extremely efficient in solving the problem. We would have no hesitation in recommending this family run business as they are very friendly, reasonably priced and accommodating in a crisis!

I called and left a message about a blocked drain and got called back within half an hour. Nobody could come out straight away but the first thing the next morning our drain was being cleared. Don't know what called the blockage (we suspect leaves and other debris from a tree that the council rather stupidly planted right outside our boundary), but it is now clear and we can use all facilities with a clear conscience.

KC 09 21

Excellent service. Dom was prompt and very professional, diagnosed the issue and whilst it was a water company problem ensured he helped me with that process and helped solve the issue. Recommended A+++

AJ 06 21

I called Dom to clear our blocked drain and he came round within an hour. He dealt with the blockage promptly and even gave tips to stop it happening. Professional service, fair pricing from an all round top guy. I'd recommend and would use again.

Brilliant service - blocked drain problem investigated and cured within barely an hour of first calling Don, who was luckily able to visit on his way back from an earlier job. Highly recommended.

Cleared blocked outside kitchen gully drain in Henley: Don gave a quote by phone, arrived when he promised and was very efficient and thorough. He explained what he was doing at every stage and finished the work in less than one hour. We are confident that he has cleared the blockage and he left everything clean. Don was also very pleasant to speak with, clearly knowledgeable and experienced. We thought he did a great job at a good price. Thank you! (PS I found the business here so I am leaving a review here too. Thanks to Little Green Book).

I have just received the services of the above company, what a pleasant man, good thorough job done, reasonable cost and very prompt in his response. I wouldn't hesitate to use him again.

Great service - came round within an hour of phoning him and unlocked a kitchen drain. Friendly and courteous.

Excellent same day service. Cleared a totally blocked household main drain quickly in a friendly, helpful, knowledgeable and professional manner. Work done in a clean and tidy manner with reasonable cost as agreed. Could not have asked for a better service and from my experience I would happily recommend this company.

TG 08 17

I am more than delighted to be able to provide a reference for Don who has been doing drain clearance for my company for many years. We look after 80 block of flat in Berkshire, Hampshire, Surrey and Oxfordshire and I have always found Don to respond swiftly to deal with the problems efficiently and at a reasonable price.

We have used A Better Drainflow on a number of occasions, and are very happy with the service  we receive from them and will continue to use them in the future.

Mr Catt was prompt for our appointment, courteous and very professional. After rectifying the problem he waited on site to make 100% sure his job was done and he even gave me advice on what he thought caused the problem in the first place and what I could do to remedy the problem.

I will not hesitate to recommend him to other people, in fact, I already have; hopefully I will not require his services again, but if I do, he will be the first person I ring. All in all, he came across as a very nice genuine man who clearly loves his work.

I have known A Better Drain Flow professionally for more than 15 years. Prior to this Don had worked on this site over 7 years for another company.  n the twenty years that I have known him I would not hesitate to provide a personal reference. He is honest, polite, very professional, and prompt and will always give value for money.
