Ist Porter Call responded quickly and carried out high quality work to fix a complex leak problem under the kitchen, and were thorough and systematic in finding and solving all the issues. They also sealed off all kitchen units and surfaces with plastic sheeting to protect everything from the drilling dust, and sealed the kitchen from the rest of the house. In addition, before they left we were given a full explanation of the work done plus photos. Very highly recommend.

I called Alan at 10am on Monday, he answered the phone direct and answered any questions regarding the blocked drains. Within 2 hours he was onsite with his full rig ready to go to work. Alan was very thorough and methodical and explained the potential cause and suggested any preventative maintenance. I had previously had Dynarod out a few weeks previous for the same fault. Dynarod cleared the blockage and left with 10-15mins, Alan spent 2.5 hours jetting and descaling each drain onsite to ensure the fault didn't return. Alan is local to our site and it was great to have a genuine hard working tradesman to call on. Someone I will certainly use again in the future. (Reviewed February 2023)

1st Porter Call were recommended to us. Alan was very quick in responding to our enquiry and visited shortly afterwards. He was able to locate possible entry points to the property from an old disused drain, which we were unaware of, with further investigation with his drain camera He was able to share with us his past knowledge & experience in investigating rodents issues. Even with the nature of his job, Alan worked very tidily and looked after his equipment & was very thorough with his investigations. We believe we have resolved the issue of rodents accessing our property, with Alans help & knowledge. (Reviewed January 2023)

Excellent service in resolving our blocked drain. Alan responded promptly to my call and made me aware of his rate per hour and likely cost for my job before attending. Alan arrived when promised and quickly identified the source of the problem which was actually off my property. He explained what he was doing and resolved the issue quickly within the expected time. He also contacted Southern Water to make them aware of the risk of further issues. He was absolutely professional throughout and left the property clean and tidy. I was delighted with Alan's service.

Excellent quality! Allen Porter exceeds expectation. The job at hand, a blocked outdoor drain, repeat offender in my student home. Many "landlord callouts" had been tasted to treat the tyranny; I have seen an escalade of experience put forth. None fit for purpose. Until now. Until, Allen Porter set to solve the problem. Equipped with the tools for the job Allen proved his expertise. He should have been my 1st Porter Call. (Reviewed September 2022)

My name is Connor and I have recently received Alan and Paul's plumbing services (1st Porter Calls) and writing this review as a very happy man as he has fixed (not taking long either) severe flooding in multiple rooms of my flat, including my shower. Sewage water was coming out of the showers and toilets due to poor drainpipe installations and thus, main drain blockages!

I write this review to commend the diligent, and professional work he has supplied to myself and my four flat mates I am currently living with. He was kind, knowledgeable and a true gentleman.

Whatever your plumbing issue may be, 1st Porter Calls is the company to call! I would be in no hesitation to be in contact with Alan and Paul again and I am thrilled to have a functional plumbing system.
