If you have any issues with sewage just contact Mc Breens. Sinead in the office was a star for arranging everything for us and ensured that it would be sorted even though we could not be there. The guy on the lorry was exceptionally helpful and did all that was asked and more besides. And all for the original quote no extra charges. Highly recommended.

What stood out most to me was their professionalism and good manners something that goes a long way, especially these days. There was no mess left behind, and everything was left in good order before they left.
This being my second time using them, I’d have no hesitation in recommending McBreen’s to others. It’s reassuring to find a company that is reliable and consistent.

McBreen came to do our septic tank and the guy doing it was an absolute legend he went above and beyond ... unfortunately cannot remember his name as he was from one of the Baltic countries but he was so good and ensured everything was right before he left 10/10 for me ...highly recommended
