Pooh causes blockage in storm water pipes

Pooh in storm water pipe

Nuflow Wide Bay were involved today in a daring rescue operation.
A local storm water drain was blocked by a Pooh.Usually Pooh’s are exclusive to sewer pipes, but today was different! “The minute I saw it, I knew it was out of place.”Says drainer Sam Foss, “Not in my 20 plus years in the industry have I ever witnessed such a big Pooh in a stormwater drain. He clearly didn’t belong there and I just knew I had to get him out and get him home” and that’s exactly what they did. Pooh was rescued, in one piece and returned to his little buddy Asha, who was overjoyed to have his Pooh back.

They were quick to respond, completed the job in a timely manner and followed up with a report to fix the problem for the future. I recommend using this company for all drainage problems. Most importantly they don’t need to dig up foundations to fix the problem

We had a major sewerage blockage and did it smell. Just the thing when you are new to the neighbourhood. Emailed Kerry through the website and the response was swift. Made an appointment and the next morning he arrived on time and took care of the tree roots that had grown through the old pipes. All flowing once again. Could not recommend them highly enough and the cost was very reasonable. They will be used again.

Nuflow met all our expectations with their high level tech and less evasive equipment. Living in a rural area we loved the fact that we could track their journey so that we could monitor that they were on the right route. Kerry was absolutely lovely and represented Nuflow extremely well by getting the job done both professionally and in a punctual manner.

Nuflow have checked our septic tank for several years now. This year I had a broken pipe. This was fixed with no mess or fuss and I am delighted with the way they left the back yard. . You even get a video of your septic run off pipe. Thank you Nuflow, I would recommend you to anyone.

Nuflow was able to attend to drainage problem same day. Kerry was very pleasant and on time, very efficient, and identified the problem quite quickly. I was really impressed with the speed with which he carried out the work. I would recommend Kerry and Nuflow to anyone with drainage problems.

Same day service for blocked pipes, which was fabulous. Kerry was super-helpful in fixing our problem and even used his machinery to identify where our drainage pipes were, as this was a new house to us with no plumbing records to tell us where our expiration sites had been set up. He really went above and beyond. Can't recommend these guys highly enough.

My septic system was overflowing (about to backup into the toilet). I called Nuflow and they recommended a septic pumper who was able to come out within the hour (Waste Master) to empty the tank and then Mark from Nuflow showed up very shortly after to investigate the blockage. He was prompt, happy to discuss the problem in detail, had the right equipment and was able to give us detailed information about where our drainage field went to and what the condition of the field was in. The price was very fair for such a prompt service and I would definitely look to get Nuflow out again for any future issues. Mark was also a very friendly bloke to deal with and a credit to the company.

Came on time, fixed the problem, showed me the result on his 'loo cam' and has placed me on his 'root recall' list for 12 month check. Will attend sooner if requested. Very personable chap.

Matthew Farthing

Within about 4 hours, Sam from Nuflow Wide Bay was able to take my call, hear my problem, make a time, attend at that advised time, locate the problem (which two other plumbing companies have been unable or unwilling to find), clear the sewer, check it with a camera, and offer useful advice. He was willing to listen to my explanation of the problem and fix it. The fee seemed more than reasonable considering the excrement he must have to put up with, and even then, how do you put a price on getting the job done properly? The right gear, the right knowledge, the right skills, and the right attitude. Professional and friendly all the way.
