Attended promptly. Workers very friendly and efficient
Customer in Sawbridgeworth
Fixed the problem with efficiency and professionalism.
I happy to recommend this company. They were easy to contact and the engineer came when they said. They charged a fixed price which included what needed to be done to fix the problem which took away any uncertainty about the cost. The engineer fixed the problem efficiently at the visit and gave a report of what was found and done. Five stars!
Customer in Colchester
First class service from a quality company
Noticed we had waste water coming up through a manhole, called Happydrains who arranged for someone to attend within 48hrs which was fantastic. Engineer called when he was on his way, he was very professional and talked me through what he was going to do. Took him around 30 minutes he had taken photos of each stage and explained what he had found and done. Very happy with the work carried out and 3 weeks later still no issues would use them again

En suite toilet block.
Their man arrived in a van fully equipped with water pipes, pumps, powerful pump engine and any other tools that may be required. He was very professional, friendly and determined to find the blockage which turned out to be quite elusive. Nothing was too much trouble and after many tests he finally found and corrected the blockage.

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.

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!

Blocked kitchen sink drain
I noticed that the patio was awash with soapy water and realised that the drain leading from the kitchen sink was blocked and overflowing. I phoned Happy Drains and they were so helpful. Arranged for someone to call round between 1 and 3. I arrived home at 12.55 to find them patiently waiting outside. They were very friendly and helpful. Did a thorough job clearing the drain, lifting the manhole cover and making sure the water was flowing freely. I was delighted with their service and would definitely recommend them.

A few words from our Happy Customers...

Excellent service with Happy Drains
"Having problems with a blocked drain , i contacted Happy Drains for help,. An engineer arrived within the hour of my call . He was both pleasant and efficient and also offered good advice.I have no hesitation in recommending Happy Drains for speed and efficiency ."
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"
Great Service! Quick response! Well priced!
"I have used Happy Drains Gosport a few times when the drains have been blocked. They are always quick to come out and they do a very good job. They left the area clean and tidy. They even email images of the issue with a full report which I personally find very helpful. They are well priced and I have no complaints at all. I would recommend them highly for anyone with a blocked drain."
kitchen drain completely blocked
"Their service was exceptional. Very professional, and they solved the most important problem! Considering that two plumbers and Thames Water visited us but only tried to rush and squeeze extra money, resolving the problem partially. "
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."

Shared sewer blocked and unresponsive to my jet wash efforts.
"Happy Drains responded quickly and operative Tony arrived within an hour. No faffing-inspected the problem. Using specialist grab tool removed gravel and a bent spoon !! from the offending area then jet washed clear and restored proper flow. Area left clean and tidy. Would definitely recommend. Thanks Team Happy."
Unblock drain re kitchen sink
"Happy Drains sent Alex who was superbly focused and dedicated. He rapidly identified the blocked kitchen sink that had not been resolved by a plumber was a drainage issue (as suspected), found the drains, identified the correct one linked to the kitchen, sent a camera down to find the blockage, and rinsed it away with high pressure water jet. Took an hour, with a lot accomplished. No additional or unexpected charges. Very happy with their service and professionalism (given dealing with these sorts of issues can be a minefield of distrust)."
Clearance of outdoor drain
"Easy to book, great communication, skilled and tidy work, and easy to pay invoice by Apple Pay. Good value and clear pricing too. Top notch!"
