Customer Review

Bruce carried out x2 cctv surveys (pre and post construction survey) which were required by Scottish Water in order to get approval for a new extension which was built over a main sewage drain shared with my neighbours. He also connected a new extension toilet waste pipe to a shared Scottish Water combi drain. Additionally, he flushed out the combi drain below my new extension before commencing the above works.

"Bruce was very knowledgeable and professional throughout the works at my address. He ensured all the work carried out was met with Scottish Water approval. He happily answered any questions I had. He is a genuinely good guy who carried out the work at a very reasonable price. I wouldn't hesitate to call Bruce if I or any family/friends require assistance with drains."
