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!!
Customer in Chingford
Good service and fixed the problem.
Happy Drains did a great job, it was easy to book an appointment with them over the phone, their engineer got in touch direct he arrived on time and had the blocked drain fixed with no fuss. Also the price was really good and payment was made easy via the payment link/website. I would definitely recommend Happy Drains ?'? Justin

Customer in Tooting
Investigate and Clear External. Blocked Drain
Was a great experience. Easy to organise. A touch late on the day but was kept informed.. Joe was great where he turned up. Explained everything and didn't upsell unnecessarily. Was efficient, polite and friendly. Great all round. Nice report/record at the end of it. Great contrast to some of the trade service experiences that you can have quite often.
Customer in Orpington
Unblocking of drain/sewage pipe
The drain engineer arrived punctually. He made the area safe for passers by, as the drain hole cover was in the pavement outside in the street. He cleared the immediate blockage with a rod but then used the power water jet to flush out the whole pipe and clear away the accumulated grease and fat causing the blockage. At one point he practically disappeared inside the drain to remove a ball of fat with his hand! He was extremely thorough and efficient and left the drain sparkling clean! He was polite and friendly throughout. An overall top notch service!
Customer in Mitcham

Drain quickly unblocked. Good advice by plumber as to prevent another blockage occurring

Drain clearance
"I called Happy Drains to attend to an overflowing drain manhole in our front drive. Their response on the telephone was prompt, courteous and helpful. Their engineer arrived slightly earlier than arranged, after telephoning to confirm that this would be acceptable. He fixed the problem in less than 30 minutes, and checked that everything was satisfactory before leaving. "
Had a really bad block in my drain effecting washing machine and boiler
"Amazing experience. Fast, knowledgeable and efficient. Called them at 12 pm they were here by 3pm... here 30 mins and problem sorted Very experienced and good value Thank you. "
1st time customer - Excellent experience
"1st time using Checkatrade. Polite and efficient experience from beginning to end, with clear/ transparent pricing + quick availability of plumber. I chose to use Happy Drains... who were available same day to unblock kitchen sink. Damian from Happy Drains was friendly and cheerful, but always polite and professional and persistent with unblocking drain. Damian had a powerful acqua vac that was required to unblock the drain. Not an easy job, but Damian persisted and determined to get job done. No surprises with charges...exactly as quoted and very reasonable. Recommended."

The plumber came out the next day and resolved the issue quickly. He explained everything throughout the process and was very thorough. Their service is very reliable and reasonably priced and I wouldn't hesitate to recommend them. "

It's now an Anglian Water problem."
