I used Luke once before around 8 years ago for surveying some drains put in by builders - I had a superb service. So when our house recently had various issues (slow washing machine drainage/filling utility sink and intermittent sewer smells in the utility room) I knew who to call. Luke is brilliant at communications which is hugely refreshing in this day and age, replying to every message. He came round with the team , did some camera work and smoke testing and immediately found the issues - effectively the design of a few drains was incorrect leading to build ups of sewage in one manhole leading to the odours plus an incorrectly routed washing machine drain. He quoted for the mods which was extremely reasonable and he subsequently came with the team to do the mods at an agreeable date. Needless to say the mods have worked - no build up or odours and washing machine drains like a dream with no sink backfill. Luke is only interested in solving customer problems and he is like a dog with a bone in this sense. Some tradespeople are just after a quick buck - it's brilliant to find a company who want to gain a great reputation by doing great work. Highly recommended.

I called Urban Reactive to look at a blocked soil pipe with suspected root intrusion. Luke was able to give me a good idea of cost over the phone, and had a team out to me at my earliest convenience. The guys gave me lots of information about what they were looking at and talked me through how best to resolve it. It was all very transparent and informative and they went ahead and fixed the problem with a resin casing, and showed me a video on completion. Everything is working fine again within the day and I'll be sure to call them again if I have any other problems with my drainage system.

I never thought I’d need a ‘drain man’, but having bought an aging house that had stood empty for a while and was in need of refurbishment, I found I did. Luke and his team have kept my system going whilst preparing for the build. They are knowledgable, efficient and quickly responsive in an emergency. They will be my drain company of choice when I refurbish my home. If you need a go-to drain company, Urban-Reactive are the best! Highly recommended.

I cannot recommend Urban Reactive too highly. They delivered on time, to budget and to a really high standard, a new driveway at the front of my home. This required extensive works, including the removal of a large volume of concrete, new drainage and the creation of garden space. Everyone involved was truly a pleasure to deal with, unfailingly tidy, and very considerate. Having been recently widowed I was nervous about carrying out works alone - they made the process a pleasure.

A very professional service. Quick response to our enquiry. Peace of mind to have our old drains checked with up to date technology. We were able to get repairs done without digging up our driveway. Highly recommended

Very professional, efficient and friendly service at a competitive rate. The response to my enquiry was very quick and the information provided was clear and easy to understand. The team arrived on the day and time quoted and ensured I was advised on what they were doing at every stage of the job. They were very polite and left the work area clean and tidy. I would not hesitate to use them again and recommend them to anyone else.

Sewer pipe blocked on 1st Jan and a well-known national company came out and jetted it but did not put a camera down and it blocked again days later. Insurance company sent another big company out who put a camera down, told me that the problem was tree roots but did not fix it. Urban-reactive came out, got rid of the roots and then came back a couple of weeks later to repair the pipe and raise manholes above the patio. Did a very nice job.

This is an exceptional company, Luke is extremely knowledgeable and works with you to come up with a solution. His team is professional and reliable. My experience of Urban-Reactive was excellent, both in undertaking the survey and delivery of a solution. I can’t recommend them highly enough.

Landscaping services in Vicars Cross

Vicars Cross has a mix of established family homes and newer properties, and many gardens have been altered over the years. Some have old patios that have sunk. Others experience drainage issues after heavy rain. Landscaping services in Vicars Cross should prioritise proper groundwork over a surface makeover.

We build outdoor spaces that remain level, drain properly, and withstand regular use. Where surface water is an issue, work can also sit alongside Drainage Services in Chester to make sure problems are solved at the source rather than covered up.

Site Clearance and Vegetation Removal

Every project begins with proper site clearing. That could mean removing overgrown shrubs, tired lawns, broken paving, decking or small outbuildings.

We strip the area back to solid ground and remove roots where required to prevent regrowth. All waste is taken away, leaving a clean space ready for proper construction.

A thorough clearance avoids hidden problems later.

Ground Preparation and Levelling

Uneven, unstable or overgrown ground can cause problems for lawns, patios and planting areas. We level soil, create stable bases, and prepare surfaces for landscaping. This improves drainage, prevents pooling and creates a foundation that lasts.

This stage determines how long your landscaping will last. If the base isn’t strong enough, surfaces will shift or sink over time.

We carefully reshape the levels, ensuring proper drainage so water runs away from the property. Sub-bases are installed to the right depth and compacted thoroughly. For larger structural adjustments, this can tie in with Groundworks in Chester to reinforce the foundation before any finishing materials are laid.

Strong preparation keeps everything stable.

Retaining Walls for Garden Support

Even small level changes in a garden can cause soil movement if they’re not supported properly.

We construct retaining walls designed to withstand pressure and provide proper drainage behind them. Whether you’re creating raised sections, dividing areas or securing a boundary, the structure is designed for long-term stability.

A properly built retaining wall gives you usable, level space.
