Rang Home Services & Repairs, spoke to Sophie who took a booking fee of £118.82 confirmed a local drain unblocked would attend that day. Martyn the drain unblocker rang, said he'd attend at 5pm same day, told us he was from Glasgow!!! So, not local as advertised, 2 hrs drive away!!! Turned up, un equipped, used what tools we had (albeit borrowed from a kind neighbour) got said equipment stuck down drains, left at 8.30pm, came back next day at 10am, all way from Glasgow, dug a hole close to blocked drain, broke pipe which flooded dug hole with water, filled it back in, said we'd got corroded old iron drains!!! We knew they were glazed pot pipes so didn't ring true, tried pulling stuck rods out by using his tow hook on his car, failed miserably. Offered to cut through all our drain pipes, kitchen drain, bathroom drain and toilet drain so we could place buckets under them to get us moving again and suggested full replacement of drainage system. Left at 12.30pm lunch time but charged us £850.00 Yes £850.00 for 6 hours work. When questioned about this, Martyn the drain man informed us the Home Serives & Repairs who had booked him, was told to charge customer a minimum of £85.00 up to £145.00 per half hour!!!! We paid £700.00 of the invoice as that was maximum bank would allow by a phone transaction. Rang Home Services to complain, Sophie wouldn't listen and put phone down on us. We were left with damaged drains and 17 metres of drain rods stuck down our drains. Have since had to excavate and sort out ourselves the damage the workman caused after leaving us in a worse state than we were in before he arrived. DO NOT USE THIS COMPANY.
