All very polite but they’re only concerned with taking as much of your money as possible rather than putting your needs first. Charged £462 for a drain survey. It was only a week later and after... Zobacz więcej

Do not use!!

They quoted £195 over the phone to clear one drain. They were at my property for 21 minutes in total. They charged £508.80. Where they got this exorbitant figure from....I have no idea. I do know that in my 30 years of home ownership,I have never paid over £500 for 21 minutes of work....on anything!!
When I spoke to Abi in the office, she said she would investigate my claim and get back to me. Of course....Abi has gone silent and I haven't been able to contact her for 3 days. Only use this company if you want to be ripped off!!

~~~Following First Local Services weak attempt to cover themselves in their response, I would like to add that I was not provided with the official cost of the repair before the work was carried out. In fact, he mentioned £200 to me which is an appropriate amount! Also, as for internal checks, reviewing job reports, photos and signed authorisation, there were none! The contractor didn't ask me to sign anything.
Yes....email me the signed invoice....which I have never ever seen!
Oh look....no signed invoice has been sent my way. Probably because there ISNT ONE!!

Good evening,

Thank you for your feedback.

We would like to clarify that the booking made with our office was not for a £195 drain unblocking, but for an investigation visit using specialist CCTV equipment. During this visit, our engineer quickly identified the cause of the issue and explained the required remedial works to you on site.

You were provided with the cost of the repair and gave authorisation for the work to proceed before any works were carried out. The engineers then completed the repair immediately, resolving the problem within the same visit.

Regarding your comments about communication. As with any query relating to charges, we must first carry out internal checks (reviewing job reports, photos, and signed authorisation) before providing a response. This ensures we give you accurate information rather than a rushed reply.

We appreciate that unexpected repair costs can be frustrating, however the invoice reflects authorised works completed rather than a timed attendance.

If you would like us to go through the job report and signed approval with you, please contact us directly and we will be happy to do so.

Best Wishes,
First Local Services

In response to your reply, I have tried to call and discuss however as you have just confirmed the additional of £229 for the remedials were quoted to you prior to proceeding.
We have a record of the signed invoice confirming agreement to the rates and a copy of the initial booking call of which you confirmed dissatisfaction with smells at the property and it was time to get it resolved and agreed to the CCTV survey to try and find out the cause.
I am pleased we manage to rectify a long standing issue for you.

If you would like to discuss further or require a copy of the call or invoice please give me a call and I will arrange to have it sent over.

Thanks

Chris wasted no time at all in getting on with the job of clearing our drains that had become blocked.He worked quickly and efficiently in doing this with a logical explanation along the way.

Brilliant service from start to finish

Brilliant service from start to finish. Following a Google search I made contact with First Local Services as I thought I may have a blocked drain. I was advised that they could get someone to me that same afternoon and suggested a cctv survey. Harry H called to advise estimated time of arrival. What a polite friendly guy ….. he introduced himself when I opened the front door, asked me to explain the issues and immediately advised that I had definitely got a blocked drain. He explained that it would be a better option, and cheaper, to sort the blockage before the cctv survey so that he could check all pipes thoroughly. Harry explained every step of the process so that I understood what he was doing and why. Once the blockage was cleared he then checked the flow from toilets and shower to ensure it was good. The cctv survey showed that the pipe work underground is in good condition. He made a recommendation concerning the pan connection on one of the toilets but reassured me that it wasn’t anything that needed urgent attention.Harry left and written report and also sent an electronic copy by text message. He also recommended a conversation with Severn Trent regarding the proximity of the pipes for mine and next door in the chamber as there is not much of a gap.

Based on my experience of the service by First Local Services and the job done by Harry H I would highly recommend this organisation and, if any further issues arise, I will definitely use them again in the future. Thanks Harry 😊

Expensive, badly equipped, but got it done.

Got the job done - but charging and capability were terrible.
He arrived without basic parts like sealant and then proceeded to go to the local hardware store to get some, and charged me for that time… here’s an idea, turn up with the proper kit. He sloped around at slow pace, watched videos on his phone, stared at the work a lot - all stalling for a better hourly rate.
I also highly dislike their business practice of them using multiple company names to make them look local, it’s deceiving as they are not local to where they claim to be from.

Good afternoon Calvin,

Thank you for taking the time to leave a review.

We take feedback seriously, however we’re currently unable to locate any booking or job on our system that matches your name or the details provided. We have previously attempted to request further information so that we can identify the attendance and properly investigate the concerns raised, but unfortunately we haven’t received a response.

We would genuinely like the opportunity to look into this fully. If you’re able to contact us directly with the property address, date of attendance, or any invoice or reference number, we’ll be more than happy to review the job, charging, and engineer conduct in detail.

We welcome the chance to resolve this and clarify matters, and encourage you to get in touch so we can assist further.

Best Wishes,
First Local Services

Overstated Charges

The work was completed, however, the chap spent 15mins looking at his phone, but charged a full hour. The initial invoice was overstated (doubled) and did not match their own quoted rates, as stipulated on their work/jobsheet. I had to challenge the charges with evidence before a corrected invoice was issued. Eventually resolved, after several months, but customers should check invoices and job sheets carefully.

Good afternoon Angela,

Thank you for your feedback.

We aim to be clear and transparent with all pricing, which is explained at booking and confirmed on site before work proceeds.

On this occasion, a query was later raised about how the rates appeared on the engineer’s paperwork during a period when our documents were being updated. We reviewed this carefully and applied a reduction as a goodwill gesture to bring the matter to a fair resolution.

We’re pleased the drainage issue itself was resolved and that a final agreement was reached. We always welcome customer queries and review them seriously to ensure fairness.

Feedback helps us continue improving our communication and documentation for customers.

Best Wishes,

First Local Services

BEWARE THEIR CHARGING PRACTICES

Fast responses on offer, and a very friendly person who came out.
What I don't like is their charging practices... BEWARE. For jetting they charge £60+VAT per half hour or part thereof. Fine. They arrived at 9:15 and were left by 10:10. I got charged a full £120+VAT for jetting, even though they can't have jetting for more than 10 minutes max. The reason when I queried it?

'the time starts from the moment the system is turned on'.

Not USED, but literally turned on. They started the motor in the van, and it was idling for at least 20 minutes whilst they did other stuff (like picking leaves out), before they used it. The motor was on for 31 minutes, and they jetted for 10. But I got charged for a full 31 minutes of jetting (which means an hour with the way they charge).

As it is they have quoted £7k for the job to fix the drains they couldn't jet, and needless to say this sharp practice means I will be taking my money elsewhere....

Very happy with the work

Had a lovely lad called Jack who was professional and courteous, went above and beyond what I expected as it was a difficult job to access but he kept going until it was sorted. I felt for him when he first arrived as all his equipment was frozen due to the -7 overnight but we got some hot water and sorted it. Thanks Jack 😊
