What Our Clients Say About Fast Drainage Northwest

"Kyle was prompt and efficient and a lovely guy. My cloakroom drain was blocked and he fixed in no time at all. Very reasonable price and would highly recommend his services."

Vivienne Smith

"Kyle was the first to reply to my add and phoned me letting me know what time he would arrive to sort out my problem. He was polite and efficient, cleaned up after he has unblocked my drain and did a brilliant job in less than half an hour. I am more than happy with the work."

Ian Williams

"We needed a new soil pipe fitting, and Kyle assessed the job and quoted that same day. He completed the work in a day and a half, and did a brilliant job. Minimal disruption, and everything cleared up afterwards. Oh, and a good price as well. Highly recommended!"

FAQ

Frequently Asked Questions

Find answers to your questions about our septic tank installation and drainage services in Wigan and the North West.

How much does it cost to unblock a drain?

+

Our call-out fee covers us coming to your property, finding the fault, and clearing simple blocks with rods. If we need to use the high-pressure jetting machine, we’ll give you a fixed quote before we start. You won’t find any surprise charges here.

Are you actually open 24/7?

+

Yes, we are. Drains don't wait for office hours to overflow, so we don't either. You can call us at 3 in the morning or on Christmas Day, and we’ll be ready to help.

What does the 30-day guarantee cover?

+

If we unblock a drain and it blocks up again within 30 days (as long as it’s not because someone flushed something they shouldn't have!), we will come back and clear it again for free.

Can you clean my driveway as well?

+

We certainly can. Along with our drain work, we offer professional pressure washing to get your paths and patios looking like new again.

How do I know if I need a new septic tank installation?

+

If your current system is constantly backing up, smells bad, or the ground around it is always wet, it might be failing. We help domestic customers choose the right new system for their home. We have years of experience in the industry and can advise you on the best high-quality options that meet the latest rules.

Do you offer septic tank services for businesses?

+

Yes, we look after commercial septic tanks too. Whether it’s a new installation for a business or a regular cleaning job to keep things running, we have the experience to handle it. We take pride in helping local businesses stay compliant and avoid any messy emergencies.

How long does it take to finish the job?

+

Most septic tank installations are finished within a few days. We know that being without drainage is a massive headache, so we work quickly to get your new system up and running. Our service is highly rated because we focus on getting the job done right the first time at a competitive price.

Do you cover the surrounding areas for septic tank work?

We certainly do. We provide septic tank services across the North West, including rural areas surrounding Wigan, Manchester, and Liverpool. If you need a reliable family business to look after your off-mains drainage, just give us a call.
