Clear a blocked drain
"Wow what a great service! Messaged Happy drains at about 6pm, an engineer was round about 9.30am the following morning. He identified the problem quickly, cleared it out and implemented a solution to stop it happening again. Cost was very reasonable and as quoted. Very courteous and Knowledgeable engineer. Would 100% recommend Happy Drains."
Cleaning out drains & clean-up
"Wonderful service. Super friendly customer service, who picked up immediately and got me booked in, they were flexible with timings. They came on time, were quick and efficient and left everything tidy and clean. It was a difficult and smelly job since the drains were very blocked up. SO appreciate the wonderful service, could not recommend more!"

Cleaning two separate internal waste pipes
"Great service .. and initial call referred me into a senior site engineer who discussed the feasibility and then referred me back to admin for the quotation. Great admin and a super quick and efficient job on site "
Blocked Drains
"I had a blockage in my sinks. I called Happy Drains and they were able to arrange for one of their team to visit me that very same day. The team were very knowledgeable, identifying the issue straight away. They fixed the blockage very quickly. All in all a great service and would highly recommend."
blocked toilet
"The Happy Drains technician (Damian) came round very quickly and had our blocked toilet sorted in a few minutes. Very helpful, nice and knowledgeable, we would definitely recommend. "
Drain clearance
"Excellent and friendly communication from the office and from the person going the job. Quick, courteous and got everything sorted for me. Couldn't ask for more really, just professional, competent and happy to help."

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"
Blocked outside drain
"very efficient service. Fixed price quoted over the phone and invoice received by email. As promised, I received a call to tell me he was on his way. Once he arrived he got on with the job, with the minimum fuss, cleared the drain, thoroughly tested to make sure it was completely clear and left with no mess."
Highly recommended
"Came out the same day. Charged a good price and cleared the drain very quickly."

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?!"
INitially cleared blockage but found root mass in the sewer so cleared that as well
"Not used this company before but when I was unable to clear a blockage in my sewer line I gave them a call. They were responsive and the engineer just got to work, identified where the sewer ran then blasted it clear. The sewer was running again within 15 mins. The knowledgeable engineer said he believed there were roots in the sewer as he could "feel" them. A camera run showed the root mass and where located. He blasted the roots from the inside then found that the majority were ingressing through the side of the sump on one of the manholes so cleared those too. Highly recommend this company"
Quickest and easiest unblocking i've seen!
"After so many expensive quotes from other companies regarding a clogged drain outside our kitchen window - Happy Drains answered our questions on Checkatrade and gave us a set quote - After talking to them on the phone, the team were kind, honest and fully transparent about how the day would go - One of their team members (unfortunately didn't get his name) came over, took one look at the drain, unblocked it and was on his merry way! Will definitely be recommending this company to friends and family!! Thank you so much team!"
