Blocked drains
"Turned up on time. Go5 the job done very quickly and professionally. Would definitely use again if needed."
Blocked toilet - resolved promptly and effectively
"Great service from Luke who managed to get our upstairs toilet unblocked in less than half an hour. Good customer service, was able to arrange a convenient time for the visit and Luke was very polite and courteous. The price was much cheaper than elsewhere, I will definitely use Happy Drains again for any future drain blockages!"
Foul smell in bathroom
"I had a disgusting smell of sewage coming through my pipes in the bathroom, after trying to solve the problem myself unsuccessfully i called Happy Drains and Alex arrived as planned, as soon as he flushed the loo he knew instantly what the problem was - a blockage in the pipes. To say he solved my problem is an understatement, he went to both of my neighbours to check their drains until he found the blockage and then went ahead and flushed the pipes through. He was a true gentleman, polite, funny and very caring. I highly recommend this company and especially Alex. Thank you Alex"
Kitchen drain unblocked
"Very prompt service, within an hour of my call. Reasonable price. Friendly service. Job done well, drain left flowing properly."

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."
