Effective, efficient and friendly.
We got in touch with Happy Drains when both our basin and bath stopped draining completely. It was not an emergency but an employee visited us within two days, carried out the work quickly and effectively with a very friendly demeanour and only charged the amount agreed prior to his visit - no additional work was suggested or required. We will definitely keep their details should we ever need their services again.

Had a blocked sink pipe. Called a few companies, these guys were responsive on a Sunday, came out the next day, the chap called me when he was an hour away. When he arrived he was incredibly friendly and helpful. Fixed the issue and even got a message afterwards checking everything went well. 10/10 customer service and the price they offered was the most competitive. Would highly recommend.

Flush through drains to restore the flow
I am very happy with the work performed. The chap was very friendly, and helpful. The work was done as described in the time given.
Customer in Basingstoke
Clear blocked drain
They came late because of a hold up in a previous job. Important point, they did call us so we were aware of this. When they came they were polite, pleasant and knew what they were doing. Access was not easy because the manhole lies either side of a fence but they were able to remove the cover and rod the drain to clear it. I was very impressed with their whole attitude to the work and would certainly recommend this company as a result of this experience of their work.

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.

Blocked drains
"This was carried out for my 87yo mother, who lives 200miles from me. Your plumber was fantastic and really put my mother at ease. He was kind, understanding of my mother's vulnerability and highly professional. He went way beyond what might normally be expected. In an age where the elderly can be taken advantage of, I can only highly recommend Happy Drains as top class and value for money. "

A neighbour recommended Happy Drains. Phoned them about 9.30 Saturday morning. They were with her by 6. They kept in contact all day to let us know the expected arrival time.

Blocked Soil Pipe
"This is a great Company. I called them at 10.30am to request a visit to sort out a blocked toilet system at my daughters place and the Engineer arrived at 3.00pm (within the time slot initially given). Within minutes he (Luke) had identified the issue and not long after, the blockage was cleared and a working toilet was restored. I would recommend these guys to anyone seeking a prompt service, provided by people who know exactly what they're doing."
