"Exceptional experience with this company! The booking process was seamless. Communication with the company was very clear on scheduling and having costs upfront meant no lingering worry on the final bill. Work was done quickly and the technicians were very professional.

Services for the London Home Buyer & Movers ‘Pre-purchase CCTV drain surveys’.

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.

Drain Clearance

"Absolutely superb. Arrived 10 minutes after my initial call. Very professional, friendly service. 5 star!"

Unblock drain re kitchen sink

"Happy Drains sent Alex who was superbly focused and dedicated. He rapidly identified the blocked kitchen sink that had not been resolved by a plumber was a drainage issue (as suspected), found the drains, identified the correct one linked to the kitchen, sent a camera down to find the blockage, and rinsed it away with high pressure water jet. Took an hour, with a lot accomplished. No additional or unexpected charges. Very happy with their service and professionalism (given dealing with these sorts of issues can be a minefield of distrust)."

Blocked sink

"Excellent service provided. Everyone was polite and helpful. Amazing company and will be using them again."

sewer pipe blockage

"Tommy & Gordon Happy Drains' amazing guys, saved me from another drainage company I called who overcharged for their incomplete services and wanted several £1000's! for further work! Found & phoned Happy Drains for second opinion. Will @ Happy Drains was so helpful and got Tommy & Gordon on the case. They arrived promptly and using their camera technology found the issue, and cleared the drains. No additional work required! Received very clear report of work with photos. Very reasonable price. Honest, trustworthy, tidy and HAPPY, cannot praise them enough!!!!!!!!!! "

Severe drain blockage cleared fast

"We used the Basingstoke branch, and I couldn't be happier. We had a severe blockage in our main waste pipe due to previous owners dumping grease for years. I called in the morning, they came just after lunch. The engineer was friendly and knowledgeable and explained every step thoroughly, cheerfully answering my questions (I'm curious about everything) and did the job quickly and with a great sense of humour, letting me fill the fatburgs that flowed out. Price was brilliant too. Couldn't recommend enough. "

Blocked outside drain

"Super impressed. Tommy and Gordon showed up within hours of my distressed phone call as our outside drain was completely blocked. They fixed it within minutes and shared their expertise for preventing blockage in the future. Friendly, courteous, incredibly knowledgeable and professional. My only go to from now on."

Cleared a blocked garden drain.

"Cleared a blocked garden drain over bank holiday weekend on same day call out. "

Blocked toilet - resolved promptly and effectively

"Great service from Luke who managed to get our upstairs toilet unblocked in less than half an hour. Good customer service, was able to arrange a convenient time for the visit and Luke was very polite and courteous. The price was much cheaper than elsewhere, I will definitely use Happy Drains again for any future drain blockages!"

Clearing of a blocked drain line just past the interceptor

"I have used Happy Drains before, and again they provided a fast and excellent service from the original phone call right up to the finished job. Work carried out quickly with care, consideration, and cleanliness. Everything was left tidy, clean and in place. I would highly recommend Happy Drains. Finally, the cost of £114 (inc.VAT) and was value for money. I can't help but thank this company for its continued high level of service"

Blocked drains to whole house

"Called the mobile telephone number for Happy drains which was answered immediately, they called back with a slot 5 minutes later and 1 hour later the engineer turned up and did a fantastic job, The drains to our complete house were unblocked.

Main soil pipe blokage was cleared.

"Professional, courteous and reliable. The call was booked with a friendly and professional demeanour. The tradesman who visited was clear in explaining what was required and the work that was carried out after he'd completed it. The blockage was mainly due to a build up of limescale over a very long period of time and was cleared quickly and effectively. Wouldn't hesitate to recommend Happy Drains."

Kitchen external drain blocked, and now it's now.

"Good communication from the initial call, though to the engineer updating us on his arrival time. Quick clean job, a very professional service. "

Incredibly helpful

"Just moved into new home &found drains blocked. Water company said couldn't come out for 3-5 days, - too long if you can't use the loo! Left message for Gary. Even though it was Sunday, he called back really quickly and talked us through what problem might be, reassured us we'd be okay overnight, and if the water company still wasn't able to attend, he'd come out Monday to fix things. Thankfully, water company engineer very helpfully appeared at 6pm and cleared things. Gary called back early Monday to check on us, and was again so helpful. Couldn't ask for someone more helpful!"

Blocked drain and toilet

"Excellent service ! Rang on a Sunday and plumber then called me back that day to discuss and arrange appointment for next day . They accessed using side gate as I had to be at work. Sent text when done and invoice included photos and all work carried out . Very pleased. I even noticed the path had been swept down a bit. Invoice was prompt and easy to pay . Would recommend and use again if needed. Price was v fair I felt . I rang another company who had triple charge and needed to access my house which would have proved tricky if I am honest . Great service. Great company."

Images of the work were taken and sent in the final report with detailed actions taken. The team at Happy Drains kept me informed throughout the day of any issues."

UNBLOCK OUTSIDE DRAINS

"This company has provided excellent first class service. DYNO ROD previously accepted our request to clear but on New Year's Eve morning declined as they were too busy and couldn't reach us until after New Year.

Engineer arrived well within this time span was brilliant, cleared the problem quickly and efficiently.
