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!"
Partially blocked soil pipe.
"Glad I called Happy Drains when I got an issue with my downstairs toilet overflowing! Damian attended within 24 hours and got straight to it, no fuss, no "hmmmm... (you know what comes next) deep breath intake, etc..). Damian was a pro and worked his way round the problem until it got done. I'm not squeamish for these kind of jobs but I soon realised that blocked drains require professional equipment and experience! Happy customer"
Flooded/partly blocked drain in kitchen.
"Phone was answered quickly when I rang up and explained the problem. I was called back pretty quickly with an estimated arrival time of between 11 and 3, in fact help arrived before 11. The problem was explained and assessed, and work began straight away. It took about 15 minutes or so and I was shown water draining from sink into manhole, blockage removed! Really quick, efficient job, I couldn't be happier."
Blockage in ground floor wc
"The work was carried out very professionally and the problem was investigated to resolve the cause of the blockage. The final report was very detailed to explain the issue after completion of the work, which was very helpful to understand the problem. Images of the work were taken and sent in the final report with detailed actions taken. The team at Happy Drains kept me informed throughout the day of any issues."

Unblocked a gullley drain
"The man was extremely calm and cheerful and went out of his way, even in pouring rain to clear my drain. I had limited access as the neighbour had built an extension over the manhole, but it didn't phase him and he completed the job."
Blocked drains to whole house
"Called the mobile telephone number for Happy drains which was answered immediately, they called back with a slot 5 minutes later and 1 hour later the engineer turned up and did a fantastic job, The drains to our complete house were unblocked. Engineer was polite, professional and knowledgeable, we are delighted with the service that we received. Would highly recommend the company"
Unblocking a horribly blocked, full to the brim with excrement toilet.
"I do everything I can to avoid trades doing dobs as I have had so many bad experiences and there are so many cowboys. Sean from Happy Drains was everything good about a tradesman. Punctual, police, personable, happy in his work and did an excellent job for us. No hesitation to give Happy Drains 10 / 10 for an excellent service."
