About Drainage and Groundwork Services Limited


Whatever it is you need, we guarantee to beat any quote and our aim is to provide the best service at the lowest cost in your local area. We want you to be happy with the service you receive and we want you to have the ability to speak to us as and when you need to regarding a recurring issue or any new issues. Businesses should be built on good customer relations, national companies like Dyno and Local Heroes won't remember you each time they visit and won't already know which plants you don't ever want digging up or where you don't want the van leaving tyre marks in the grass. Local businesses provide that local touch and Drainage and Groundworks Services Limited is a leading provider of services in the North East of England.

Support your local businesses while saving money.
On average our prices are more than half of the price Dyno or Local Heroes would charge.

Absolutely first class service. Arrived at my house within an hour. Cleared blockage quickly and then proceeded to look to see what caused the issue. Price had already been quoted and did not once try to say it was any more even though he had done what he came to do. Brilliant service thankyou.

Called to book appointment and someone came within 30 minutes even on New Years Eve. Very professional, courteous, amazing service and great value for money. Highly recommended and will pass on details to all friends and family. Thanks again for a quick efficient response and great workmanship.

Contacted them via email regarding a 'slow draining' kitchen/roof drain that was most likely (and it turned out only) suffering from a build up of leaves etc. They came out as agreed, including a heads-up call when they were about 20 minutes away, which was very helpful. Took less than 10 minutes for one of the two to resolve the issue by hand/manual plunger, but while I know prices have gone up, £114 (including VAT) seems very steep considering the pricing claims on the website. For smaller jobs or situations where it might be as straightforward as this, I wouldn't recommend them in the first instance.

Excellent work carried out by Allen of D&G services, very professional, thorough and extremely competitive, could not recommend them enough, don’t be afraid to call them out, better job than the bigger companies at less than half the price.

We had a blocked drain which was causing problems in our bathroom and also water leaking from the outside drain , we called DGS at 9. 30 and they were at our property within 25 mins. They sourced the issue and completed the job within 30 minutes I have never had such brilliant service from a tradesman I would not hesitate to use them again and would highly recommend this company. .

Great service. Called them late on Saturday afternoon and they arrived as promised Sunday morning at 9:30 and had the drain sorted quickly and without mess. Would not hesitate to recommend the guys. Thanks very much.

Absolutely brilliant. Told by another specialist that drain had collapsed and major work needed. DGS investigate and quickly found this was not the case and got everything flowing for a very good price. Honest trader.

Clearance of a badly blocked domestic drain. Alan phoned ahead and correctly predicted his precise time of arrival. He quickly and efficiently rectified the problem - a completely slick and fuss-free performance. He was skilful, knowledgeable, informative, and delightfully cheerful throughout. A pleasure to have him working on our driveway.

Called the company at 6. 30pm thinking I had little chance of them coming out tonight. No bother at all. John arrived within 30 minutes and then put a real shift in to clear a blocked foul drain. Nothing was too much trouble and he has restored my faith in young people, a real grafter and very pleasant with it. Fantastic service and would highly I would definitely use again. Many thanks.

Do not touch these people with a bargepole. They installed a treatment plant in 2020. Average price, average quality work, so no real complains there. However, they never mentioned at the time of quoting that Building Regs were required, and I never thought to ask, as it was replacing a leaky old style septic tank. I only found out when I came to sell my house. I tried contacting them, as they'd said if there were any problems to get in touch, and despite 20+ emails and phone calls - no response. When I looked into and became an expert on BRs, I realised that because they don't have anyone on a "competent people" list, they can't apply for them. So I had to organise and pay for a retrospective BR certificate myself. Overnight, their job had gone from "average price" to "expensive". Furthermore, the BR inspection failed because of their shoddy and unstatisfactory electrical connection work. So I had to find a competent electrician to put it right - more money. Their job had then become "very expensive". Not only would I never recommend this company, I now make a point of telling everyone to avoid them in the first place. .Moreexpand_more

Collapsed drain at the side of house meant there was damp up the wall. Called DGS after finding on here and they came out to survey the area. They used CCTV to inspect the drain and confirmed it had ruptured. Graeme explained how the issue would be fixed. We were concerned that it would be costly and take a while. Much to our surprise it was done that very same day and far less than we expected. Highly recommended company.

Phenomenal price and super fast. Couldn't fault them. Over the moon with the back so asked them to come back and do the front. Did everything from picking up slabs to preparing ground and laying. Over the moon as had been quoted so much more elsewhere in the area. Thanks.

Collapsed manhole at one of our depots. Called DGS, found on Google Maps, and Graeme was round within the hour to inspect. Went away for materials and came back to fix same day. Couldn't fault the service, top man and gets the job done to a high standard, quickly and at a good price.
