Blocked drain
"Quick response; good diagnosis on what to do; right equipment to clear the problem; did the job and explained how to reduce recurrence / maintainence. Good people to do work locally. And fair pricing "
Blocked drain
"We had a drain which had got progressively blocked over a week, with a complete blockage over the weekend. Found Happy Drains via a Google search and on the Sunday morning, requested a booking for the Monday via their online form. Monday am I get a call from their office to book the job in, 30mins later they arrive and have the problem sorted and advise me how best to avoid the same problem in the future. Very good service, would recommend. "
Fast and reliable service
"Called out after sink blockage caused water all over floor. They attended in just over 2 hours. Hoovered up water, unblocked. Excellant friendly service"
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!"

Blocked drain
"Excellent problem-solving solution for a tricky drainage issue "
Blocked kitchen sink drain
"Just a simple and excellent service in and out within 45 minutes.Highly recommend them."
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. Engineer was polite, professional and knowledgeable, we are delighted with the service that we received. Would highly recommend the company"
Blocked outside drains
"Very courteous plumber, explained everything he was doing and investigated thoroughly to find out the problem and then fixed it."

INitially cleared blockage but found root mass in the sewer so cleared that as well
"Not used this company before but when I was unable to clear a blockage in my sewer line I gave them a call. They were responsive and the engineer just got to work, identified where the sewer ran then blasted it clear. The sewer was running again within 15 mins. The knowledgeable engineer said he believed there were roots in the sewer as he could "feel" them. A camera run showed the root mass and where located. He blasted the roots from the inside then found that the majority were ingressing through the side of the sump on one of the manholes so cleared those too. Highly recommend this company"
Outside runoff drain to mains was backed up and overflowing.
"Called them on a Saturday when the drain was especially playing up and within 20 minutes they rang back with the job booked in for the Monday. Friendly, prompt service on the phone, same again when the fella turned up. Done in 10 minutes. Didn't have to pay him then and there, but instead was issued online invoice and link to super-simple payment procedure. Brilliant. Highly recommended; will definitely use them again - just hope I won't have to! "
Drain flushing
"Arrived on time and was very polite and professional. Did what he needed to do with the minimum of fuss and explained what he had done along with verbal recommendations as to the next steps. This was followed up promptly with an email report."
