Customer in Wolverhampton
Great cost effective service
Very positive experience, guy knew what he was talking about and was totally fair at a reasonable fixed price. Highly recommended.
Customer in Matlock
Fair set price, no funny business just a great and reliable service.
Brilliant as always. I've used Happy drains on many occasions for my holiday let properties and here is why - they charge a flat fee and never have a problem spending a little extra time if required, they are always professional and arrive on time and with the required equipment and always get the job done. If they can't fix it straight away they are quick with the CCTV to diagnose without charging silly money. They are honest, reliable and that is why I only use happy drains.

Excellent service from start to finish with Happy Drains. Would highly recommend the company to others. Quality work carried out on site, was kept informed along the way, work completed to a high standard and was checked and rechecked before leaving site. They even cleared up the broken and damaged drain parts and made area looking good again before leaving.

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)."
A blocked drain under the bath
"This is the third time I've used Happy Drains and I cannot praise the company enough! You can book online - I booked on a Saturday for a Monday slot. Inc redivly helpful, friendly and reliable. They take photos of the job and explain what they found and how they fixed it - honestly a really brilliant company!!"
Toilet unblocking
"We had Arran come round to unblock our toilet after I tried all the usual DIY attempts. He explained everything fully, told us the options and tried everything possible without going in to the more costly fixes. He completed the job within the an hour and the cost was exactly what was quoted on the phone. He explained how to prevent it happening again and had a great chat about other DIY things around the house. Definitely would recommend. "
Use Happy Drains. Efficient, friendly, professional, eminently reasonable price. No nasty extras.
"Happy Drains gave me a reasonable timeframe for following day, but came within hours on same day. 'Phone call to tell me of change of plan. Work done efficiently and blocked drain swiftly sorted out. Very friendly, but and determined to do a good job. So good to get back to normal so quickly. I recommend Happy Drains without hesitation and will always use them for any future drain problems."
