Blocked toilet

"Blocked toilet, cause of which was a blocked drain outside the house. Happy Drains fitted me in quickly and dealt with it fast and efficiently, for a very reasonable price. I will certainly use again if necessary."

Kitchen drain Blocked

"I had a big block on my kitchen drain. My kitchen is the result of a garage conversion with long drains and hard access. Happy drains came after a few hours from my call and fixed the problem. They had to open an access on the laundry and charged a reasonable amount to do that. Very happy and would call them again!"

Outside drain unblocked

"I called Happy Drains to clear an outside drain at my father's property, which had become blocked. The friendly lady that answered the phone very helpfully managed to get someone to come the next morning. I received a call prior to the workmen arriving, which was reassuring. They were friendly and very efficient; 25 minutes after they arrived the problem was resolved; brilliant! I would highly recommend this company."
