Carrying out a cctv drain surveying for a pre purchase of a property.
Great customer service, easy to book. Surveyor gave notice prior to arrival. Report was ready quicker than expected and released very quickly after payment. Good value for money.
Customer in Shefford
Removing an old flange stuck in the drains to the downstairs wc.
Both drainage experts arrived in the time allotted, and on inspection agreed that the drain was blocked. They also kindly inspected all the drains to the property physically and with a camera. It took three flushes to dislodge the old flange and managed to hook it out and replace the connections to the wc, cleaning up and making sure it was not leaking. Both work and cleanliness was to be commended. Well done!

Blocked kitchen drain
"The amazing reviews of Happy Drains seem well warranted. Our experience was beyond excellent. Fantastic customer service, friendly, efficient and effective service.

I cant really recommend highly enough."

"I called Happy Drains to clear an outside drain at my father's property, which had become blocked. The friendly lady that answered the phone very helpfully managed to get someone to come the next morning. I received a call prior to the workmen arriving, which was reassuring.

Professional, efficient and reasonable
"Just after Christmas we had a blocked drain. We called out your engineers, the office was extremely helpful and your engineers arrived promptly, they were very professional and carried out the work efficiently. The price was very reasonable and we would recommend your company and would use again."
Clearing blocked drains
"I called the company after a recommendation and a man arrived later the same day. He was friendly and professional, quickly set up the equipment and worked his magic with the two blocked drains. He offered advice on keeping the drains clear in future and made sure the area was clean and tidy before he left. I have no hesitation in recommending this firm."
Excellent, knowledgeable and creative
"We had a drain survey carried out at the request of our architect prior to building work. The man from Happy Drains was extremely helpful. He suggested a pragmatic solution to the situation which was far more simple (and much cheaper) than the original approach that was planned. The architect was very impressed."

Unblocked a kitchen sink waste pipe
"The company was quick to respond to my initial call. The job was completed the following afternoon taking less than 15 minutes to complete. The technician was very polite and helpful. There was no call out fee or a dodgy plumber shaking his head for five minutes, making you think you've got a massive crisis on your hands. I will use this firm again in the future without doubt. "
Drain Jetting
"Happy Drains were incredible, I requested a quote and received one in mere minutes through their website! I tried a few competitors and a few came back a day or two later and others I still haven't heard from! I found the quote given to be competitive and they had good availability which worked around my busy lifestyle. I highly recommend Happy Drains and will continue to use them for any other difficult drainage or plumbing issues!"
Shared sewer blocked and unresponsive to my jet wash efforts.

Thanks Team Happy."

Drain clearance
"I have used Happy Drains before, and again they provided an excellent service from the original phone call right up to the finished job. We were out when they arrived, and just got back after they finished, but after a mobile phone call they proceeded immediately. Everything was tidy, clean and in place on our return, so if you have a problem of this nature, I can honestly recommend Happy Drains 100%. Finally the cost of £114 was real value for money."
External drain unblocking
"Excellent, speedy service from a friendly, knowledgeable drainage engineer. Happy Drains will be my choice next time."
Called to unblock a drain
"The engineer informed us of his arrival time and was prompt. He quickly understood the task and was left to it. The drain was efficiently unblocked and a demonstration of the flow showed it was clear. It was a clean tidy job courteously undertaken. Thank you."
