Blockage finally cleared

After a number of visits to inspect the sewer that runs through our garden we finally had Jordan Kirkham and Ashley Hartree attend. They called ahead to say when they would arrive and spent time using a camera to locate and clear a blockage. Job reference 14215720.

Friendly Staff

Shortly after moving in to my new home, we discovered that the external stop tap had been paved over during the previous owner's tenure, so Severn Trent had to come and locate it in order to fit our water meter. We were visited by P. Mooney (reference 14166137), and he was very friendly and helpful!
