DrainFixer provides drain excavation & re-lay across Reading and the surrounding Reading villages. We're a small family-run team — you speak to an engineer, not a national call centre, and you get a straight answer about what's wrong before anyone starts work.
Older homes in Reading were plumbed with salt-glazed clay in short sections with mortar joints — the classic entry point for roots. Newer estates use continuous UPVC, which blocks less from roots and more from wipes, fat and misuse. We factor that into every drain excavation & re-lay job we take in RG1.
It depends on the job — depth, access and what's actually causing the problem. We quote in writing on site before starting, so you approve the price first. Call 0330 1331 347 and we'll give you a realistic range over the phone.
Typical arrival: 60–90 minutes once you call. Reading is around 48 miles from our East Grinstead base, and we run 24 hours a day, so emergencies in RG1 get priority.
Yes — every street in RG1, plus outlying hamlets and rural properties on private drainage across Reading.
Most single-defect excavations complete within 1–2 days including reinstatement.
Yes — we lift slabs and blocks carefully and reinstate to match. On highways or complex finishes we bring in specialist reinstatement partners.
