Bathroom drain unblocked
"The gent from Happy drains arrived promptly, explained what he planned to do, and resolved the issue quicker than expected. It was a smooth and friendly process and I'm very happy with the outcome. "
Drains and stack pipe unblocking
"Really good experience. Very polite and professional. Slightly odd reason for a blocked drain (surprisingly tiling cement was blocking the base of the stack pipe), but the Happy Drains colleague came and cleared the blockage for me. They did a great job. Easy to deal with and made the process really smooth. Good pricing too. I'd happily recommend them and use them again"
sink waste pipe blocked
"I called happy drains with blocked sink waste, the receptionist arranged for the technicians to attend the following day informing me they would call me 30 minutes prior to arrival. The technicians did call me 30 minutes before arriving. They understood the difficulties involved with the blocked waste as the access was challenging and with patience and experience they unblocked the blockage. The guys were polite, tidy, on time, and knowledgeable. Will defiantly use happy drains again "
Blocked kitchen drain.
"Positive. Pipes were cleaned out and everything is well in the world for a reasonable price. I'd use them again if I needed it. "

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. "
Unblocking a kitchen runaway.
"They arrived within the stated timeframe, the man explained the problem and how he would deal with it. The work was done swiftly and satisfactorily. Wouldn't hesitate to call them again if necessary or to recommend them to anyone else."
Drain camera inspection
"All staff were professional, friendly and helpful. The drain survey was conducted promptly, and the report received in good time. The report was thorough and helpful."
