Highlights
"Had a toilet blocked over the weekend. A quick call to Abbotts and they were onto it. Got a call from Gary who advised his expected arrival time and turned up on time and sorted the issue with a hyrdo jet and cleaned up and disinfected the area and price as quoted. No problem recommending these guys."
"Terrible Service, DO NOT USE!. I have an old house and the drain was running over with toilet waste. I called up and mentioned that I would not be in, and directed the staff with acccess detaisl to the property. I was immedtiately asked for my credit card details, but I mentoned that ususally an invoice would be sent. Moving on, the unblocking took under 2 hours, for which i paid $460. Thats the most I have ever paid. Expensive, and to add insult to injury, during abou the 2nd week, the drain"

Couldn't ask for better service. A Sunday call out, no problem. Determined to help and get results ...first class.
We had a leaky tap outside, instead of going under the house the guy ripped off the boards of the house and broke them and left the responsibility to another company. This has upset me and have had no apology what so ever from them. This has not been fixed for over a week now.
June 2012, Had drain unblocked which was apparently caused by tree roots. May 2013, drain blocks again. CCTV camera reveals section of sewage pipe is displaced (same section where previously blocked). Quoted $2000 to replace 5m of pipe in addition to initial unblock fee and CCTV fee . Assumed it was a major job. Took 2 hours for 2 guys to complete. The did not clean up properly after the job, tossed the old gully trap in the garden. The new gully trap does not line up properly with the outlet
Abbotts, who have been handling my drainage for 7 years, recently unblocked my sewage drain for an uncompetitive price of $230. The following day a CCTV scan ($255 more to Abbotts) showed incomplete root removal. Abbotts refused to stand behind their work and return to complete the job. They wanted to return for a completely new recharge !! Furthermore Abbotts's charge for a Nuflow reline was $2000 more than estimated by their tech<br />and had absolutely NO guarantees !! This company deserves a
I called Abbotts with a blocked drain at 1:30pm on a very rainy weekday. Dwayne arrived two hours later, almost immediately found the inspection point lid had caved in, filling the drain with dirt.<br />He cleared this, hydro'd the drain to 30m and tested, then fixed the inspection point lid on with epoxy (or something) to stop it coming off again. He knew what he was doing and charged $230 which I believe is pretty standard pricing. Very happy with the service.
