We handle domestic and commercial properties, offering fixed-price solutions for emergencies. All work is completed to industry standards with minimal disruption to your property.
CCTV Drain Surveys
Using advanced CCTV technology, we conduct thorough drain inspections to identify blockages, cracks, or structural issues. This non-invasive method allows precise diagnosis of problems in drainage systems, enabling targeted repairs and preventing unnecessary excavation work for homeowners and businesses.

Brilliant. Had a leaking mixer tap that was causing so much noise. Called JLM and they made time for me the next day. Fixed within 30 mins. Cannot fault and will definitely recommend.

A marvellous job from start to finish. It was a real pleasure to have James come to work on our back garden/patio flooding problem. He was extremely hard working yet always took time to patiently answer our questions. Would I recommend him to others? Absolutely!

Must agree with all other positive reviews about JLM Utilities.
James did a first class job on fixing my drain problem. He turned up when he said he would and stuck with the work until
it was complete. Also worked through torrential rain to get the
job finished. Can't recommend James highly enough.
