We had a very problematic drain blockage that only had access from the toilet and no manholes. The guys turned up, very professional, polite and persevered with the issue until the drains were cleared. I would 100% recommend to anyone who requires this type of service.

Customer in Thetford
Blocked drain from ensuite.
Called Happy Drains about 9am as my ensuite toilet was blocked which was the only working toilet at the time. They advised that someone could be with me between 10am and 12noon. Two guys arrived just after 12 and went to work straight away to clear the blockage, which they did quickly, cleanly and professionally. Based on this I would use Happy Drains again.

Customer in Norwich
Kitchen drain not clearing outside.
After trying to clear outside gully by hand, I feared a major underground issue. After seeing good reviews, I called Happy Drains Norwich. A non urgent visit was agreed 8am-12. On the day, He called to advise on the way. Shortly after, he called again to advise that he had to attend an emergency and would it be OK in 1 hour. I agreed and he arrived in originally agreed time window. Relying on experience, he determined that the gully outlet was in a surprise position and he removed bits of concrete and old fat. Quick job but fee was ok for his experience and his very flexible wrists!

Customer in Harwich
The main drain from bathroom blocked. Backed up to kitchen drain.
This was my 87 yr old mother's house. We lifted the manhole cover thinking maybe we could unblock it, but it was full. So any water drainage was just overflowing. Euch!! 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. Super friendly, excellent communication, good price. Great service, especially for my elderly mum. Thankyou

Happy drains made the initial booking process very easy, the contractor arrived on time, they were professional, e.g taking shoes off when entering my home, and they did a great job and answered any question I had. Would recommend!
Customer in Chelmsford
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!
Customer in Chelmsford
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.

Impressed that business telephone was answered on a bank holiday. Arrived on time having texted beforehand. Very polite chap who simply did the job and cleared our drains. Ensured everything was ok before leaving and advised on possible reasons for blockage and potential benefits of having a survey done in the future. Left everything very neatly - no mess but most importantly no smell!

Customer in Bury St Edmunds
Excellent service from Happy Drains Bury St Edmunds in Suffolk.
It turns out we had a plumbing problem rather than the requirement to have our drains cleaned out. The very knowledgeable member of staff knew exactly what was wrong and (even though it meant no business for them) explained what to tell my plumber needed to be looked at. They were spot on with the advice and my smelly shower tray problem was solved in 15 mins. Thanks for your expertise.

Unblocking drain
"Having used Happy Drains previously, I contacted them about a blocked drain on my property. They responded immediately, sent engineers who were prompt, professional and friendly and had the job done in 25 minutes. Just to top it off, the price was the same as my last call-out with them two years ago. Excellent service all round."
Blocked drain that runs under house.
"Had a blockage from the sink drain that runs under my house. Called at 9:05 and engineer arrived within 3 hours and got the problem sorted within 25 mins of arrival making myself and my drain happy. Had the same done 3 years ago and cost nearly double with one of the larger companies so decided to go local and worked out well on all fronts. "
