Drain clearing.
"I was delighted that my problem was dealt with so quickly The engineer was promt and polite, totally professional. The price quoted was the price invoiced, no silly ad ons. Great company to do business with and I have no hesitation in recommending their service. Sincere thanks."
Outside drain blocked and overflowing.
"Happy Drains came when arranged, with a call ahead to give 30 minutes' notice of arrival. Their lovely gentleman assessed the blockage, explained what it was and how caused. And cleared it completely, in 15-20 minutes. He left the area 100% clean and tidy and finally, offered us some useful advice on managing the drain going forward. Could not have been a better customer experience and we'd recommend to anyone."
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. "
Drain unblocking
"Excellent company to deal with. Polite, friendly and reasonably priced. A credit to the drain industry! Will certainly be recommending them and will be using them again. Special mention and thanks to Josh the expert drain man. Finally, paying them online (following receipt of invoice) was so easy, if you use the weblink they send you. Why can't all trades companies be like this?!"
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 "

Identified a drain blockage which has previously gone unrecognised by other companies
"Great job. Problem identified Problem fixed Problem has stayed fixed All done very quickly by a lovely engineer at a reasonable price Very very happy and would highly recommend"
Clearance of blocked soak away
"Several people looked at the issue, suggesting that significant works may be needed to resolve. Spoke to Happy Drains, explained things well over the phone, suggested it may be a simple job to unblock it. Arrived quickly, did the job and all seems well. Very pleased "
Partially blocked soil pipe.
"Glad I called Happy Drains when I got an issue with my downstairs toilet overflowing! Damian attended within 24 hours and got straight to it, no fuss, no "hmmmm... (you know what comes next) deep breath intake, etc..). Damian was a pro and worked his way round the problem until it got done. I'm not squeamish for these kind of jobs but I soon realised that blocked drains require professional equipment and experience! Happy customer"

Basildon and Essex drain services from a firm receiving great feedback...

Blocked Soak Away
"Company was able to give me an appointment next morning. Engineer called to tell me his arrival time. Very courteous and polite. Quickly got on with the job. Explained what he would be doing. He used a high power jet washer and hosed down all the affected areas. Gave me advice on how to prevent a recurrence. He was then able to issue an on-line invoice for the fixed price I was quoted. Total time taken for the job was abot 45minutes. Very pleased with the service, price and quality of the work. I would highly reccommend."
Drainage survey
"Honestly the most efficient business I have come across. Called up and had a drainage survey booked in within 5 minutes at a very reasonable price. Jason who conducted the survey was very polite and helpful and William was great with getting the survey over to me in a very timely manner. Would highly recommend."
Unblock an outside pipe
"Unfortunately the pipe was blocked with concrete which appears to have happened when the garden fence was erected. However, the tradesman wrote the reason it was blocked on the invoice which helped when I contacted the tradesmen who erected the fence."
