MHR Drainage Customer Testimonials

We got someone independent to ask some of our customers a few questions. We feel like there is nothing better than hearing what they say, because they have had the MHR Drainage team on their property, working on their drains.


You won’t find a better team!

“We had a big storm a few years back and our stormwater drain overflowed and around the same time, we were having flushing issues with our toilet. I heard MHR Drainage’s advert on the radio and they explained the exact issue we were having. So I got them around and they put a camera down and sure enough, there was a crack in our pipe. To fix it they had to dig up a concrete pad that was on top of another old concrete pad, and ultimately gave us a better-finished concrete than we had originally. They were really flexible and such lovely guys to deal with, they seemed to know what they were talking about and just go in and did it. They were honest and just dealt with everything. The whole process was easy and straightforward. They did a fantastic job and you won’t find a better team!”

So obliging and courteous, clean and tidy


“We had some issues after the earthquakes with flooding around the place. We were contacted by MHR Drainage with a no-obligation assessment where they’d come round and look at our drains. They found blocked drains around the back of our garage. So they put sumps in and sorted it. Their workers are so amazing, so obliging and courteous, clean and tidy, they were always cleaning up after themselves. The team gave us step-by-step accounts of their progress, giving great instructions and any questions we had Josh would answer them happily. They’re so professional just A-Plus.”

Kept us up to date and made the whole process easy

“A neighbour had issues with their drains and recommended MHR to us. After googling them online and learning a bit more about them I decided to get them out for an initial assessment. They were very accommodating, they were able to come round and assess things when I was at work which was great. The team kept us up to date with everything and made the whole process easy. They were very clear and upfront in terms of dealing with EQC claims and what to expect along the way. They were all easy to deal with and completed everything to a good standard of quality”
Yolanda Thomson | Homeowner, Papanui

Josh was very helpful and organised

“We were asked to do a survey on our drains. Josh and the team from MHR Drainage were here for about four weeks. They were all very pleasant and the job went well. Josh was available for any advice on modifications and he was just very helpful. Josh was very organised, helping to contact a neighbouring property when there was an issue with accessibility. I would use them again.”



William (Jack) Bagley | Homeowner, Merivale

They communicated really well and nothing was a problem

“When searching for quotes MHR Drainage was the most affordable. The team worked really well and was easy to deal with. They communicated really well and nothing was a problem. ”




Danny Nicole | Homeowner, Linwood

I couldn’t fault them, to be honest

“EQC sent MHR Drainage out to fix our drains which were damaged in the earthquakes. They turned up when they said they would, did the work they said they were going to do, and kept in contact all the time. When there was an issue arising from a broken pipe they sorted it immediately. They were very much on the ball and so approachable. All the team were friendly. They’re tidy, they get the job done, I couldn’t fault them, to be honest.”
Pamela | Homeowner, Somerfield 

The team were tidy and efficient

“MHR Drainage were advertising a drainage check service so we decided to take them up on it and get ours checked. They established a fault and it was good because they dealt with all the EQC claims and everything, it was all sorted out and they did a great job. They had to replace a concrete pad where they needed to cut through some concrete levelling, that all went smoothly and the new pad looks great. The team were tidy and efficient, and let me know what was going on all the time.”
Barry Brosnahan | Homeowner, Springston

They showed up when they said they would

“We had blocked drains as a result of the earthquakes. We contacted a few drainage companies, but they were available and were the best and easiest to deal with. I appreciated the team's good communication. They were on time and showed up when they said they would, unlike a few other companies we called around the same time. They seemed professional and knew what they were doing, not overly expensive. They had all the camera gear that we needed to really find out what was happening. ”
Tina Kerwin | Homeowner, Burwood

Just simply good genuine people!

“We currently subcontract to MHR Drainage for some of our jobs. They have great communication and do high-quality work. The team always make sure they have done the job properly, if it’s not and there are issues they work until it’s done to their high standard. Josh is a great guy, I’d highly recommend him and the team, they’re really easy to deal with and they look after their customers. Just simply good genuine people!”




Joseph Cowan | Pipemedics

They really respected my property

“I originally had an assessment done on my drains from another company but was unhappy with the EQC report that came back. After being recommended MHR Drainage through a friend I contacted them and they had a look over the report to offer a second opinion. It turns out that while investigating the issues raised in the first company’s report, the repairs when approached from another angle, could and did save thousands of dollars and a whole lot of time. They had very practical suggestions on how they could save my precious planting from being destroyed, they really respected my property and I so appreciated that. I really can’t fault them, they were so professional, practical and easy to deal with. The guys were absolute tops.”
Penny Wright | Homeowner, North New Brighton

The team was flexible and left a really clean finish

“As a result of a recent downpour we experienced some flooding around our property that unfortunately went under the piles of our house, it needed immediate attention. I called a few companies and Josh got back to me with a quote really quickly, and managed to book me an immediate appointment. We needed new drainage, replace the concrete, it was extensive work required for an old house. They were flexible with us, it was a really clean finish, everything was completed really quickly. Without any house plans to work off, they managed really well finding another couple of hidden pipes that they dealt with too. The team were approachable, professional, personable and easily answered all our questions. Honest and flexible company to deal with.” 
Quoyah Darr-Glindorg | Homeowner, Prebbleton

Pleasant and very hardworking

"MHR Drainage Ltd. replaced our earthquake damaged sewer and storm water drains quickly and efficiently. Communication was good throughout the project, site attendance was reliable, and the work carried through with care and consideration to the owner and property. His men on site were pleasant and very hardworking. We’ve had no hesitation in recommending MHR Drainage Ltd to neighbours having similar drain damage problems in our area. Well done Nick and your team at MHR."

“Thank you to MHR and your team for completing the repairs to our sewer and stormwater pipes due to earthquake damage. MHR’s communication from start to end was excellent and kept us informed throughout the process. The guys always arrived when they said they would, were always courteous and left the property tidy afterwards. I have no hesitation in recommending MHR to others”

Gay Bramwell | Christchurch 

Great service and good aftercare

“Thumbs up to you and your team, Josh, kept us up to date with what was happening with our stormwater drain and sewage, twice he had us pencilled in to be fixed and twice the snow intervened. Josh kept us informed about when he would then be attending to our drain by responding to our text and voicemail messages, great service and good aftercare contact provided would recommend, thanks for a job well done.”



Stu| Christchurch 

Most impressed

“TI was very impressed with Josh and his team. They came when they said they would. I now have my toilet working and drains repaired after waiting for months. Josh was helpful with the extra jobs that also needed to be done. He made a stressful time easier with a plan of action and got on with it. Most impressed and no hesitation in recommending them with a job well done.”
