Customer in Gosport
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.

Drain unblock
Great service from start to finish. Ordering the service was easy with the online form. The contact phone call early in the morning to confirm that Happy Drains rep would be with us between 0800-1200 was very comforting. The engineer himself was extremely professional and cleared the blockage very quickly. He then cleaned the whole system and ensured we had no other issues before he left. The cost of all this was very reasonable considering other comparable companies. Please pass on my thanks to all concerned. ?'??'??'?
Customer in Petersfield
Reliable service
I called Happy Drains to sort out a problem for my parents, who find it difficult to source and arrange services themselves. My communication with Happy Drains was efficient and understanding. I received information and return calls as promised, and the appointment took place as scheduled. Drainage for upstairs bathroom cleared, with photos supplied with the invoice and explanation of work completed. Very reasonable price. I recommend this company.
Customer in Alton
Kitchen Sink Drain Blockage
Telephoned Happy Drains early morning. Was told a technician would come to me late afternoon. He arrived at 4pm after telephoning to advise his arrival time. He asked where the blockage was and then got on with clearing it. No time wasted. Once the U bend had been taken apart the blockage was sucked out. Then the U bend was reassembled to show me the blockage had been cleared. All done very efficiently and effectively with very little mess being caused. I was very pleased and impressed.

Outside drain unblocked
"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. They were friendly and very efficient; 25 minutes after they arrived the problem was resolved; brilliant! I would highly recommend this company."
Blocked drain
"Amazing service. I couldn't recommend these guys highly enough. I don't have his name but the young man who came took well over 2 hours to fix our problem which had accumulated over 40 years. He kept everything tidy, was courteous and professional and just when I thought we were going to be left with a major problem his persistence & experience saved the day."
Unpleasant smell from drains.
"Persistent unpleasant smell from drains into kitchen sink. Eliminated problems with internal plumbing so called HD. First appt engineer rang to say earlier job had been more complex than reported and would be late for our job. Offer of new appt 2 days later accepted. Engineer (Quinn) rang with ETA, arrived in middle of time slot. He was polite, professional, he quickly located and removed the problem and flushed the whole drainage system."
Drain unblocking
"Excellent company to deal with. Polite, friendly and reasonably priced. A credit to the drain industry! Will certainly be recommending them and will be using them again. Special mention and thanks to Josh the expert drain man. Finally, paying them online (following receipt of invoice) was so easy, if you use the weblink they send you. Why can't all trades companies be like this?!"

sink waste pipe blocked
"I called happy drains with blocked sink waste, the receptionist arranged for the technicians to attend the following day informing me they would call me 30 minutes prior to arrival. The technicians did call me 30 minutes before arriving. They understood the difficulties involved with the blocked waste as the access was challenging and with patience and experience they unblocked the blockage.

Clearing of bathroom drain.
"Exceptional experience with this company! The booking process was seamless. Communication with the company was very clear on scheduling and having costs upfront meant no lingering worry on the final bill. Work was done quickly and the technicians were very professional. Payment was smooth as well (was able to use Apple Pay). Will definitely get my business again if needed and will recommend them to anyone else in the same situation."
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!"

Blocked Drain
"Turned up promptly, assessed the situation, confirmed the quote and cleared the drain. All very quick and efficient with a very cheerful and polite tradesman. Couldn't have gone better."
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."
Simple gully clearance.
"Very prompt service and reasonable price. Helpful help desk too - very impressed."
