Drain and manhole cleared

"The two engineers who turned up were extremely professional and polite. They did a wonderful job and they cleaned everything away tidily. I even asked them to pull out and dispose of some long branches I have been meaning to get rid of myself without hesitation. I would highly recommend their services!"

They came and sorted out a blacked drain for me

"Brilliant job came and sorted on the same today would highly recommend"

There was a blockage, like a fatberg, in the internal pipe.

"We had a problem with the pipes in the flat and Tony was really good at working out how to clear it. We were told to ask for a 50m cable if it happened again as the pipe is very long. The work couldnt be guaranteed as the access is limited, but he did clear the blockage and from calling to solving the problem was all within 2 hours. I would definitely recommend."

Unblocking main drains

"Easy booking. Very efficient and courteous repose. Advised on cheaper time to attend rather than on a Sunday. Attended exactly on time. Competed job and cleaned up. Very professional and reasonable price. Excellent."

Buying a property anywhere within the M25 is a pretty big commitment, so why take a risk of inheriting an expensive London drainage problem!

Our fast, friendly and affordable London CCTV drain surveys are specifically designed to help to reduce the risk of inheriting a drainage problem during the process of buying a house.

If you need the information fast we can share what we find via a live feed during the CCTV survey works.

A recent study by insurers suggested “20 to 30% of subsidence claims in London are directly linked and attributed to defective and leaking drainage and a consequence of which has eroded the soil below the foundations causing movement.”

The technical CCTV written reports that we provide are to WRc standards and will detail for your consideration what is needed to bring the drain up to standard and what you are are responsible for by precisely locating any problems.

Rats, mice, rodent and vermin drain problems

Rats will use drains just like ‘Londoners use the Tube’ simply to travel from A to B to feed and nest and they love damaged or redundant drainage systems which can allow vermin to enter properties.

If you have a rodent/vermin infestation that your rodent/vermin contractor cannot control, this may be because of a drainage issue.  We will find the defects and access points the rat may be using.   We will offer you an appropriate solution be it drain repair or the installation of a WRc tested and certified 'Anti Vermin / Non-Return Valve'.

What do our Anti Vermin/Non-Return Drain Valves do?

  • Stops rats and other vermin from entering homes. In effect by fitting a stainless-steel flap, that acts as a one way swinging door allowing waste out but nothing back in.
  • The rubber seal prevents noxious fumes and smells from entering properties.
  • The flap has an inbuilt stainless steel plate to stop rodents biting through, providing efficient pest control.
  • The valve is completely re-usable during any drain cleaning and drain maintenance purposes fully removal and re-usable.
  • Stops backflow of effluent from a blocked main sewer flooding into your property back through the drainage system.
  • The clever design means the flow of waste is increased when passing through the valve; reducing blockages.

Blockage !

"All the staff I spoke with were so friendly and so helpful thank you so so much"

Unblock main drain from house

"I called at 8 and Happy Drains were here by 10. Identified the problem quickly and solved it. Then went on to check and clean all other drains to ensure no residual problems, and all within the same standard price of £95 plus VAT (total £114). Really quick and efficient service from customer focussed professionals. Than You"

Huge blockage in Soil Stack

"We had been living without a bathroom for weeks, after no effort from the landlord we came on checkatrade and found happy drains. The gentleman that came out was absolutely amazing! Cleared the blockage completely using his jets and camera. Such a nice bloke (Chris), had a laugh and definitely made us feel comfortable. Gave us a call half an hour before and was on time too which was fab. Affordable price and great service! Would 100% recommend!"

Blocked drain

"Martin arrived on time, having let me know he was on the way. He quickly got to work and within minutes it was all sorted. He also kindly cleaned up the mess on my patio (the drains had overflowed during heavy rain, leaving it covered in sewage.) As I don't have access to the communal drain (he had to do it from my neighbour's), he even got out a metal detector to locate where my access shaft is (under the patio). Overall, Martin was thoroughly helpful and professional. I must also say of Happy Drains that they answer the phone quickly, and the lady I spoke to was helpful and courteous."

Clear Drain

"Very fast response within 2 hours so it was all done and dusted very quickly.... Thank you Happy Drains ????"

Excellent service: glad I found this company!

"Really excellent service: had a blocked drain as a result of a flash flood and the company responded very quickly the same morning. Very helpful engineer, excellent work and very reasonably priced. Will definitely be using again."

Slow-draining sinks - clear blocked pipes

"Quick and efficient service. I rang Happy Drains in the morning and they had an engineer with me within just a few hours. Damian was quick to determine the problem (simple blockage) and immediately got to work clearing the pipes with no fuss and no mess. Friendly, professional and tidy."

Unblocking kitchen sink

"Great service. Very quick turn around (called at 09:30 and the plumber was on site at 12:00). Polite, and efficient. Got the job done in 40 mins. Would recommend."

Sorted out our blocked kitchen sink super quick

"Happy Drains came round and quickly identified that the issue was outside the house. I had literally popped upstairs to let my wife know he'd arrived, before I got a text saying the job was done. Everything works perfectly and it was lightning quick, and the quote was also very reasonable. Highly recommend these guys."

Fixed blocked drain in bath

"Quick to book an appointment. Arrived on time. Fixed the blocked drain in the bath with little fuss. Fixed fee is reasonable and gives peace of mind if any other issues might pop up to delay the fix."

Clear blocked sewer drain

"I whole-heartedly recommend Happy Drains. My initial telephone contact was handled with speed, efficiency, courtesy and clarity. I was given a fixed price quotation and an estimate of the time when the work would be done - both were met. I thought that the problem was in a down pipe but it was actually in two manholes for the mains sewer, both of which were hidden from view, one under garden soil, the under under paving slabs and screed on a patio. Wayne, the service engineer, quickly got on with locating the manholes and clearing the blockage. He was cheerful, friendly and efficient."

Drain unblocking

"Prompt and efficient, pleasant tidy guy, good result and competitive price"

Blocked drains

"We had a problem with a slow draining and bubbling toilet, called Happy Drains on a Sunday and the amazing receptionist arranged for a call back that morning, with an engineer able to come out the very next day. When he arrived on Monday, Martin was absolutely superb: he diagnosed the problem straightaway and had everything unblocked very quickly. He even took the time to explain what he was doing to my seven-year-old and showed him a few tricks of the trade, which my son was absolutely delighted with. Happy Drains are quick, efficient, extremely good value, and their engineers are amazing!"

Unblocking an exterior drain

"Happy Drains arrived promptly and resolved the problem in a professional manner. The price of the work was clear, I was kept informed of what was happening at all times, and the company representative was courteous during his visit."

Blocked downstairs toilet

"Firstly, even getting a plumber for non-emergency work, at such short notice, felt like a Xmas miracle, but Happy Drains were there to help! From the moment they contacted me through Check a Trade, to the point the job was done I have been impressed. They were very accommodating on the phone, gave me a time slot and turned up next day. Called me 30 mins before arrival too. They dealt with my issue very professionally, were very helpful with advice and also friendly. The report with photos and invoice arrived via email after the job, which was simple to pay. Excellent service and I'd use again!"

Blocked drain

"My drain was blocked and I had previously called a different company to clear it but they were unsuccessful, I called happy drains and they arranged to send someone the following day. Martin arrived and managed to find the cause of the blockage and cleared it quickly and efficiently, keeping me updated with what he was doing and the root cause of the problem. Fantastic service from Martin and the team at happy drains, I will definitely be using them again in future if I have any similar issues and will not use anyone else again."

Drain Blockage

"Our drain was blocked and it was terrible. Happy Drains technician came round same day and diagnosed the issue immediately, it was with the outside drain. He explained it all thoroughly but easy for us to understand. The drain was cleared and working in around 15 minutes. Very happy with price and workmanship, would thoroughly recommend Happy Drains to anyone with a blocked drain or for any other service they offer."
