Put drains on your checklist if you’re moving house!

Moving house is an exciting time! You’ll have so much to think about, from where all your furniture will fit, to what colour to redecorate the walls. You’ll probably have a checklist of people to talk to, from solicitors and removal companies to the estate agents. But don’t forget to add Happy Drains to that list! The last thing you want to do is sign the contracts and move in only to discover there are issues with your drains, sewers, cesspits or septic tanks. The drainage system is a fundamental part of the services to your property, and just because much of it’s out of sight underground should not mean it’s out of mind. If left unchecked, drainage issues could lead to bad smells, leaks, even subsidence and structural issues.

Give us a call at Happy Drains and arrange for us to come and carry out a CCTV survey. It’s fairly quick and doesn’t involve massive disruption, but it does give us a chance to make sure there’s no corrosion or cracks in your pipes. Are there any small blockages that could go on to cause problems in the future? If it’s a new build, has the work been done to a satisfactory standard? Have the builders left concrete inside the drains? And the cost is minimal compared to how much you’ve paid for the house!

The same applies if you’re a landlord buying a property to rent out, or you have an existing rented property and you’re changing tenants or carrying out annual maintenance. We can come and check the pipes and drains and make sure everything is in tip top condition. Call us at Happy Drains on 0800 849 8099.
