Called out for a plumber for a blocked…

Called out for a plumber for a blocked toilet, he came in with no equipment, stood there and just looked at the toilet and said it needs more specialised equipment so will cost more and needs to talk to his boss. I called another plumber who fixed the problem within 5 minutes with a plunger and a bucket of water. When I refused to pay they sent it to a dept company with a false report saying they had properly investigated it (they didnt), that it needed more than a plunger, which it didn't and that I was told it would cost over £500

Outstanding Sunday Drain Service with PM247

A very good service provided. The professionals who attended were very friendly. We had a seriosuly blocked (and stinky) drain that needed sorting out. They did the job quickly, effectively and without fuss. All on a Sunday!

Never EVER use this company!

247PM was asked to fix a very small and simple leak. He plumber attended, but instead of doing the work, made excuses to return. I then hired another plumber who went along and fixed it in 20 minutes!!! I asked for a refund but they fobbed me off repeatedly!

Rip off artists

Rip off artists. Charged my old mum £948 (2 visits) to unblock a manhole that Anglia water would unblock for you free as it's their responsibility (being a shared manhole). Dyno-Rod guy said PM247 should of rang Anglia Water to do it.

Called this company to clear a blocked soakaway

Called this company to clear a blocked soakaway on my driveway. They have a very strange way of doing business. The workmen said that chemicals were needed to completely clear the blockage and they called their head office who increased the estimated charge from around £140 to almost £450!! One of the workmen said that as I was a senior citizen they offered to knock off £100. There is no doubt that this is a standard practice for this company. Because of the urgency of the situation I agreed for the work to go ahead. To add insult to injury full payment was required before the work was carried outl I would never use this company again and would never recommend anyone to let this company anywhere near their property. PM 247 is guilty of sharp practice. EMPLOY THEM AT YOUR PERIL!!

Don't use these plumbers!@!

We were moving house and needed a leaking toilet fixed for new owners. Plumber who came was friendly but cost quoted was ridiculously exorbitant Co sidering he finally replaced required parts in about 10 mins then extra 15 to set flush button correctly. Process required contract and payment before any work could be done. Would not recommend this plumbing service

SCAM!!!!

SCAM!!!! The engineer spent less than 60 seconds at my property, did not touch anything, then walked out "to get machinery" at which point I got a call asking me to pay an extortionate price (£400 for what other plumbers charge £180..). When I refused it they said I'd still have to pay £144 for the 60 seconds they spent here.... They put it in the small print of the confirmation email after you book with them and make you liable to pay. Their whole strategy is built around spending less than 60 seconds at your property, quoting you a ridiculous price and charging you £144 for nothing. Total ****s.

They quoted £123 +VAT

They quoted £123 +VAT . The guy looked at the drain and called his boss. They then gave me a price of £800. I said I could not afford it .. he replied well thats the price .. he then said he would look to see if he could do it cheaper ..but I said don't bother ... he was arrogant. They then charged me £144 for coming out .I said it stated on the website no call out charge but it was different in the small print. I asked then to send an invoice. He refused to let the guy leave until I had paid ... I contacted another company they came the next day and charged me £200. Do yourself a favour - don't use !

I used this company in London

I used this company in London, they are just cowboys. it was about unblocking the toilet , they charged me £474 for half an hour job, which appeared to be that it didn't resolve the problem, and the water in the toilet was still very slow. what they did was that they didn't use the jet, but pulled the stocked rubbish from downstair, and never tried to do anything from the toilet itself. when i tried with them to come back and do the job properly, they said i have to pay again more than £168 for their visit plus anyone amounts that they may decide later on....

Dont fall for the scam

Do not Touch. scam I called this company to unblock an overflowing manhole, the y charged £168 for the callout which includes a basic attempt to unblock the drain, tenant monitored them and they didnt even try but rather called me to say that it needs jetting and wanted to charge £695 + VAT. as a managing agent i know teh game so i denied it, got another company to come out soon after, they unblocked it with one plunge.
