Opening Scene (cue the ominous music)
It was a dark and stormy night at Happy Drains HQ, when suddenly the phone rings! Strange noises? Check! Foul smells? Double check! Swamp water rising in the back yard? Oh boy, sounds like were in for a splashtacular spooky adventure gang! Let’s Go!!!
Ah yes, Scooby-Doo and the Mystery Machine crew. As kids how we loved them. Glued to the TV enjoying countless reruns of these classic cartoons. A quirky team of pals (with some very special skills) solving mysteries in a cool van. Sound familiar? And when the Drainage Emergency “hot line” rings, and we’ve got a blocked drain mystery to solve, we’re on the case quicker than you can say “Scooby Snacks!”
The Clues
Following clues is our specialty, and boy-oh-boy, have we had some doozies:
Gurgles echoing out of the pipes – creepy enough to make a ghost shiver! The kitchen sink smelling like something died in there? Yikes! Puddles oozing like they’re auditioning for a horror film? To the average homeowner, these signs could at first glance, be mistaken for some unearthly goings on (a reason to call the ghostbusters). But for our drain-unblocking super-sleuths, they’re just classic signs that your pipes are staging a protest.
Classic Villains (Before The Mask Comes Off)
Miner Forty-Niner, Redbeard’s Ghost, The Creeper – in true Scooby-Doo style, there’s always a “monster” behind the mayhem. And when it comes to problems with your drains, our customers sometimes think the same! They’ll call us certain it’s something supernatural:
“It must be a ghost!”
“My drains are haunted!”
“There’s no way that smell is normal!”
But don’t worry – there are no ghosts in your pipes, just a drainage mystery waiting to be solved. When we pull off the mask, it turns out the villain is almost always one of our old pals:
- Fatbergs – those gooey, greasy monsters of doom.
- Leaves and debris – the sneaky ninjas blocking your drains.
- Tree roots – the ultimate undercover spooks, infiltrating your pipes and causing chaos.
- Collapsed drains – the sneakiest villain of them all. Jinkies!
No ghouls here, just another day at Happy Drains!
Meet The Gang
Of course, the Happy Drains team aren’t exactly the real Mystery Inc. but we like to think we come pretty close! We’ve certainly got the same mix of brains, courage, determination, and friendly banter!

- Pongo: Our fearless sniffer – able to detect funky drain odours from a mile away!

- Thelma: Our high-tech CCTV drain survey whiz – solving mysteries with a little help from science.
- Barney: one of our many engineers – the masterminds behind the traps (or in this case, the high-pressure jetting kit).
- Barbara: The style guru – making sure every job is finished fabulously, cleanly, and with flair.
Together, we’re the Happy Drains Gang – answering the call, cracking the case, and keeping Britain’s drains flowing smoother than a Scooby-Doo chase scene!
