Incredibly helpful
"Just moved into new home &found drains blocked. Water company said couldn't come out for 3-5 days, - too long if you can't use the loo! Left message for Gary. Even though it was Sunday, he called back really quickly and talked us through what problem might be, reassured us we'd be okay overnight, and if the water company still wasn't able to attend, he'd come out Monday to fix things. Thankfully, water company engineer very helpfully appeared at 6pm and cleared things. Gary called back early Monday to check on us, and was again so helpful. Couldn't ask for someone more helpful!"
Clear kitchen drains
"Cleared blockage in kitchen drains, checked all drainage in bathroom and kitchen, problem solved! Engineer was there next day and sorted problem within a few hours. Super great value and service"
Drain clearance
"The service engineer came out on call-out in good time, assessed the problem with my drain and gave a very good, professional service. He was friendly and very informative, cleared the blockage and took pains to leave everything clean and tidy before leaving."

Blocked soil stack/drainage
"Thank you for a swift and professional service you provided to us, from the phone call handling to the engineers who attended our property. The area was left clean and tidy.The price was fixed and discussed on the phone Thank you "
Blocked drain
"I had a major blockage in one of my drains. Called happy drains who responded very quickly. It took a couple of attempts to clear but they done an amazing job"
Blocked drain
"Martin arrived on time, having let me know he was on the way. He quickly got to work and within minutes it was all sorted. He also kindly cleaned up the mess on my patio (the drains had overflowed during heavy rain, leaving it covered in sewage.) As I don't have access to the communal drain (he had to do it from my neighbour's), he even got out a metal detector to locate where my access shaft is (under the patio). Overall, Martin was thoroughly helpful and professional. I must also say of Happy Drains that they answer the phone quickly, and the lady I spoke to was helpful and courteous."
Blocked Drain
"End to end customer service is excellent, Chris the engineer was brilliant! very knowledgeable and honest, has saved me thousands of pounds by providing an alternative solution to resolve the issue, would highly recommend Happy Drains again and they will be doing my further works, thanks for the excellent service!"

Blocked kitchen and bathroom sinks
"Avril, Jack and Jordan were all outstanding and insisted on visiting twice to ensure that all my drains were completely clear. Efficient, knowledgeable and working to very high standard. All for a very competitive fixed price. This company is excellent. Thank you. "

"We reached out in the late morning and the issue was resolved by 3:30pm the same day. Very quick and efficient service, the engineer was very polite and friendly. Will definitely use again if further issues arise."
Blocked drain and toilet
"Excellent service ! Rang on a Sunday and plumber then called me back that day to discuss and arrange appointment for next day . They accessed using side gate as I had to be at work. Sent text when done and invoice included photos and all work carried out . Very pleased. I even noticed the path had been swept down a bit. Invoice was prompt and easy to pay . Would recommend and use again if needed. Price was v fair I felt . I rang another company who had triple charge and needed to access my house which would have proved tricky if I am honest . Great service. Great company."

Drains and stack pipe unblocking
"Really good experience. Very polite and professional. Slightly odd reason for a blocked drain (surprisingly tiling cement was blocking the base of the stack pipe), but the Happy Drains colleague came and cleared the blockage for me. They did a great job. Easy to deal with and made the process really smooth. Good pricing too. I'd happily recommend them and use them again"
Cleared a blocked drain
"Telephoned ahead of visit and arrived promptly. Very polite and informative offered follow-up advice and a new quote but wasn't pushy. Would definitely use again."
Drain unblocked quickly and efficiently!
"Happy Drains were great! Friendly on the phone, turned up on time and phoned ahead to let me know they were arriving. The plumber was lovely, got straight to the job, worked out what was going on, explained to me what the problem was and resolved it. Now a free-flowing drain again and I was delighted with the experience - thanks Happy Drains!"
