"It took a while for Dean to be able to fit us in amongst his busy schedule, but it was well worth waiting for him to do the work. He was thoroughly professional and efficient, and knew what he was doing throughout. He put in two sumps using a digger. Then trenched and connected two downspouts underneath existing carports to each sump by hand. This was in sand and gravel based conditions. Our prevous drainage in Eastbourne was half a 44 gallon drum for each downspout that had silted and blocked… up over the last fifty yeas or so. So a vast improvement on what was there before. Dean was finished within the three days he had allocated for the work. I highly recommend Dean to others."

"Dean was fabulous to work with, timely, great communication, great advice, professional, considerate, courteous, and delivered on time, even when delayed by other contractors.
Left the property clean and tidy, as much as he could considering he dug up my whole driveway to lay replacement and new sewage, drainage, water pipe. I would thoroughly recommend and use him again, thank you Dean!

"Upon recommendation Dean came and did extensive repair/replacement work to the drainage on my property. This involved 4 days of his time, of which i don't think i saw him stop work once! He kept me informed on progress, was friendly and professional, and was considerate of my dog by ensuring gates were closed when she needed to go outside.i would highly recommend Dean for any drainage problems."

"Dean did an amazing job laying the new drainage for our new shed. 🤩
Great communication over email and phone and exceptional service.
He booked the council inspection himself and met with the inspector, and of course- it was passed! Hassle free! Definately recommend his services."

"I could not recommend Dean more highly if you paid me to! He took the time to come round and have a look first (before charging me!!!) and then found me a solution that isn't going to cost an arm and a leg.
Such a genuine human being as well as being so good at what he does.
Thank you so much Dean :-) "

"Always a pleasure to deal with those who do what they say they are going to do, when they say they are going to do it. Dean the machine completed a high quality job for us in a tight space on a tight timeframe. Thankfully he even managed to save a large area of bricked courtyard & gardens. 100% happy with all aspects from our 1st meeting until job completed. Go well."

"I wholeheartedly recommend Dean's services to everyone looking to get their drains fixed. We had a biggish job at our residential house that included planning and laying a whole new stormwater and sewer drainage system. Dean worked alongside other tradesmen (earthworks and retaining) to plan how they would fit aspects of the overall project together. Dean and his team worked through weather that was not ideal and did the job quickly, efficiently, to specifications, and leaving a tidy area… behind after finishing. We are very pleased with the results!"

"Dean the Drainlayer is FANTASTIC! Seriously, this is the only guy you need to fix your scary drain problems. Broken drains, mysterious leaks and their associated problems are scary at the best of times, even more so when you live in a different city and need to get these frightening things fixed from afar. Dean was recommended to me by two people, and I'm so glad I listened. The week I rang Dean, he was away, but he rang back straight away, scheduled me in and kept in regular contact prior to,… during and after the job. He is super reasonably priced, turned up promptly when he said he would and took photos of the job as I requested (much appreciated for an absentee homeowner). The job was bigger than anticipated, with an undiscovered leak further up the line which was not originally picked up due to tree roots obscuring the earlier CCTV drain inspection. Not only that, this leak was the main cause of the problems and the reason my porch had sunk over time. Dean worked his magic on this leak, filled in the hole and the problem was fixed! I am so pleased to that by fixing these two leaks, Dean also solved the mystery of my sinking porch. Now I can get that lifted, knowing the real cause of the problem has been fixed. I can't recommend Dean the Drainlayer highly enough. Honest, hard-working, reasonably priced, trustworthy and does a great job - Dean the Drainlayer deserves to be your go-to drain man."

"An excellent job.
Dean came on time, worked steadily - and left our garden so immaculate I could not point out where the new drains had been dug. (I should have taken photos but didn't anticipate the work being done quite so quickly).
I had received four quotes including Dean's. His quote was somewhat more than the cheapest one (but not as high as the others) - but we selected him because he is qualified to run the drain being laid into the stormwater system. Once he had dug up the garden,… there was more water than I had anticipated - had I gone with the cheaper quote the problem would not have been solved.

Would recommend giving him a call if you need to drain your property."
