Would recommend Happy Drains.
Rang Happy Drains for help with blocked drains. They gave me a date and time when engineers would come out together with a quote. All went well, turned up on time explained the procedure and the extra work that would be needed, was kept informed during the time they were here and they worked hard to unblock the drains. Engineers disinfected the area inside and out before they left. Would recommend Happy Drains.
Customer in Sandbach
Happy Drains Experience
We contacted Happy Drains first thing in the morning, and by early afternoon, the job was completed. The operator who attended was extremely professional, knowledgeable, and efficient, taking the time to explain what was needed and getting everything sorted without any hassle. The whole experience was easy from start to finish, and we were really impressed with the quick turnaround and quality of service. We would definitely use Happy Drains again and wouldn't hesitate to recommend them.

Customer in Nuneaton
Quality work from Happy Drains.
Excellent service from start to finish with Happy Drains. Would highly recommend the company to others. Quality work carried out on site, was kept informed along the way, work completed to a high standard and was checked and rechecked before leaving site. They even cleared up the broken and damaged drain parts and made area looking good again before leaving. Felt pricing was fair given the work involved and happily paid the bill the same day as felt confident in the workmanship.
Customer in Matlock
Fair set price, no funny business just a great and reliable service.
Brilliant as always. I've used Happy drains on many occasions for my holiday let properties and here is why - they charge a flat fee and never have a problem spending a little extra time if required, they are always professional and arrive on time and with the required equipment and always get the job done. If they can't fix it straight away they are quick with the CCTV to diagnose without charging silly money. They are honest, reliable and that is why I only use happy drains.
Customer in Newark

Customer in Richmond
Retrieving ring from a drain.
Service was great from start to finish. The team arranged to get to me quickly and kept me informed by phone. The plumber was friendly and positive despite a tricky situation - he was creative with his solution and managed to retrieve my ring which was of great sentimental value. He also took care to clean up afterwards, I couldn't recommend Happy Drains more highly and will certainly use them again.
Customer in Penrith
Drain cleared.
Great service from start to finish.
Customer in Kendal
Investigate, unblock, repair and line watercourse pipe.
At all times the engineers proceeded with the job using high tech up to date equipment, which ensured the best quality result for the project. It was also really good that at any point in the project they were happy to explain what they were doing and why. Very reassuring, could trust them completely. Happy Drains also undertook the negotiations with my house insurance, which I came to realise as a good thing as I didn't know anything about pipes and drains, and didn't know what had happened to cause the damage, or what needed to be done to repair it. Thank you Happy Drains Ltd team.

We are then able to provide you with depths and directions of the inspection chamber we have access to, and we can include these in your technical report.
We will produce a report to confirm, size, material, connections, junctions, conditions and directions of the foul drainage. Before carrying out the survey, we will assume that you will have made all chambers accessible and that the pipework is clear and without blockages.
When we carry out our surveys, we will make sure to include the areas that are your responsibility, and we will identify if the drain is shared and if any of the issues you may be having are on your boundary or not.
Leading the pack with great reviews!
