Auger were brilliant

Auger were appointed by my insurance company to fix a water leak on my property. They were very efficient and friendly throughout the booking process, were able to offer me a cancellation and get an engineer on site 4 days earlier than expected, and had the leak sorted in under half a day. Their engineer, James, was very approachable and professional, and got the job done with minimal disruption. Thank you Auger for a fantastic service.

Auger doesn’t auger well - Avoid

Water went AFTER Auger attended and did diagnosis. Mistakes happen. What rankles is that multiple calls to the company (promised callbacks never materialised) merited the response: not our problem. Speak to your insurer. End up paying £££ to get plumber out. Avoid this company

Professional and warm-hearted!!

From my initial contact with Jodie Kay the Customer Care Lead, to the final day of work to lay a new Main water supply to my home, and re-connect the shared supply to neighbours, Auger were excellent in every way. I have a difficult situation as a full-time Carer for my husband and Auger took this into account at every stage of the process. Decisions were made with me and with my situation in mind at all times. The Lead Water Engineer Simon is without doubt both exceptionally skilled and personable, making decisions in my best interests and overcoming technical problems with the experience and care gained over many years. Simon is the best possible ambassador for Auger, and he and his team of Aidan and Jamie worked so well together on each day of the job. When a difficulty arose I was informed of it, but then it was managed quickly and with great expertise and care without involving me again. My courtyard and adjoining lane were excavated in a tidy manner and all excavations placed in rubber buckets to be re-used when backfilling the holes. I could not have wished for a more courteous, pleasant, and extraordinarily talented team. Water problems in one's garden can be extremely stressful, but with Simon to manage the whole project aided by Jodie to check on my well-being I felt cared for from start to finish. Simon took the strain from me and liaised with neighbours and advised on SWW policy and practice as he once worked for them and knew how things should be done. This is more than 'above and beyond', it is stratospheric and I am so very grateful to Auger to have been allocated such talent to solve my water problem. Thank you all so very much.

Efficient, professional, friendly service!

Auger were clear, efficient and professional from start to finish. We had a freshwater pipe leak coming through the foundations of our house and spilling into the drain. The team at Auger were really quick at identifying the source of the leak and then got it fixed in a super-quick amount of time.

Before engaging with Auger, we had another company come to assess the leak. Reflecting on both companies, Auger were by far the most professional, cost-effective and reassuring. Great service! Thanks Paddy and Billy + team Auger.

Auger Drain Repair

We went through our insurance who instructed Auger to do the drain repairs. The survey man and the repair man were both very approachable, knowledgeable and happy to explain the process. The site was left clean and tidy. All work is covered by a 10 year Warranty.

Above and beyond!

Professionalism shone throughout our dealings with this company relating to an insurance claim.
The people with whom I dealt both via phone calls and on site were interested in giving the best possible service rather than just 'doing a job'.
Reminds me of the days when people actually cared about their customer's experience as opposed to being 'put on hold'. Well done, Auger

Auger were assigned to repair a leak on…

Auger were assigned to repair a leak on the mains feed from the main stop valve .was advised that they would repair the damaged lead pipe or I could go for a complete replacement at additional cost,I excepted the quote for full replacement,they surveyed site and commenced two later,they hit a snag on one part of the drive and advised that they were unable to mole it and would have to manually trench the whole drive,waited two days for a reply.and was told that it was not possible to Finnish works and would be happy to just repair it .I have five holes dug in drive with a temporary mains feed, they advertise them selfs as the leading company for underground works.offered me a refund of my money so I could appoint another company to complete works.very unhappy customer.i believe as they quoted me for two days work and the works have overrun they would be out of pocket

Auger are very professional and great communitcation

Auger was sent by First Direct to deal with our blocked rain drain. The guy was very professional and talked us through why it had happened and how it was going to be dealt with. Auger came back to make the repair which was not easy but he showed us the issue. After the repair he cleaned the area and we also had a copy of the initial report and a 10 year warranty.

Zero Stars

Zero Stars. Sketchy company. Their engineers say one thing and the report says something else. Not to mention the report from the job is not shared unless you request it. Shifty and sketchy. Also took them nearly a month to fix my broken pipe. It was 30 minutes job! They also offered to do it privately (as I claimed through my insurance) and I was told it would have been much quicker-greedy lot! Avoid.

Excellent engineers and dishonest admin team …

Had a water leak and my insurance company appointed Auger to fix it
Their engineers were 5 stars however their office team as a huge lack of honesty.
Was told to install a stop tap otherwise engineer would not be able to check if leak was from mains to stop tap or after stop tap. Hired an plumber and claimed back value from insurance… insurance now does not pay because Auger admin team says that never requested the stop tap to be installed… what upsets me is not £300 but the lack of honesty from company, if Auger asks you to do something please ask them to request in write and not by phone as they cannot be trusted
