Customer in Wallington
Delighted to recommend this fantastic company.
Great service from Happy Drains. Quick to arrange visit, came promptly and sorted out the problems. The guys were polite and friendly, offering great advice and potential next steps. After being ripped off by other companies in the past, we were grateful for the transparent pricing which was very good value. Delighted to recommend Happy Drains.
Customer in Epsom
Second time back, and for good reason
Second time using Happy Drains. Booked them for a CCTV drain survey following an unsatisfactory experience with another provider; they had originally been engaged when we bought the house and came recommended again through a trade contact. The engineer arrived punctually, was courteous throughout, and walked us through the findings on site. Pricing was fair, an the final invoice matched the quote. The written report and accompanying video footage contained enough detail to understand the condition of the drain runs and scope the remedial work. Will be using them again for the corrective works.
Customer in Anerley

Bath Sink/Pipe Issue
Rang up pm was told what it would cost so no surprises, arranged visit for next day am, operative rang to tell me his arrival time. He arrived on time did a quick survey of the problem and got on and solved the issue. At the end showed me pictures of the limescale which had blocked the pipe. Left with sink/drain running well. What more can you ask!!

Excellent Service - Tommy Was Thorough and Professional!
I had a great experience with Happy Drains. Tommy did a fantastic job addressing my drainage issue.

Highly recommend their services if you want the job done right!

Clearance of sewer manhole interceptor and drain run of sewerage, toilet wipes and shrub roots
I was contacted by a very happy and enthusiastic operator and an appointment was made quickly and he turned up on time. The enthusiastic and knowledgeable operative explained and showed me what the issues were and began to clear the manhole and sewer run, then completely cleaned the area surrounding the manhole, tidied up and showed us the root ball he had also found which along with the flushable toilet wipes had caused the blockage. I highly recommended Happy Drains, they are fast, friendly, happy and enthusiastic company, can't commend the operative representing the company so well.

Customer in Coulsdon
Cleared my blocked kitchen drain.
A blocked kitchen drain that spews water over the patio is not a fun thing. I phoned Happy Drains Ltd, who told me they would phone back in half an hour, when they had got someone to do the job for me. I had thought they might tell me nobody could come for several days, but no, they phoned me back after speaking to one of their employees, told me he'd be with me within two hours, and he was. He was the nicest, most cheerful man, who did the job in an hour or so, and what a relief it was to have the sink draining properly once again. Many thanks to Happy Drains Ltd.
Customer in Coulsdon

The contact phone call early in the morning to confirm that Happy Drains rep would be with us between 0800-1200 was very comforting.
