Kitchen sink drain cleared
"The engineer from Happy Drains cleared my slow running kitchen sink drain in minutes. The plumbing is not straightforward but he saw the issue and cleared the blockage very quickly without wasting time. He was very thorough and cleaned up afterwards. My sink now drains faster than it has in years and I am very happy. I was told exactly how much it would cost beforehand, so no hidden extras, plus the engineer offered a 28 day call back for free if the issue wasn't resolved. "

Blocked domestic manhole
"From the moment I picked up the phone to contact someone about the blockage to the work completed the service was exceptional. Kelly knew what work I would need doing with my frantic explanation and calmly and professionally advised she would contact me back with an update. 10 minutes later I was told I could have an engineer in as little as 2 hours. The engineer arrived promptly. Professional, friendly service carried out with honest and transparent future care advice. Was able to easily Apple Pay an hour later for service following my invoice. No hidden fees. Cost was as advised. Very happy."

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)."

Toilet drain pipe investigation
"Amazing in terms of just taking the time out on the phone to just walk through problem to see if they needed to even come out and also proposing various options to move forward. The prices quoted were also reasonable."
Blocked external drain
"I had a blocked drain (external to the property). I previously had someone to look at and they explained that the drain had likely collapsed and quoted to fix (over £1k). I thought I would double check. Happy Drains visited and drain was clear within minutes (blocked trap) with no requirement to dig up garden and replace drains (or use a camera). 60 day guarantee inc in case it blocks again. Engineer was polite, friendly, cleanly dressed and professional. As he said 25 years of experience. Great job, highly recommend (and I will be recommending further)."
Blocked outside drain
"Very reassuring man on phone. Gave me clear advice and fixed price, explained what engineer would be doing. Engineer booked quickly for next day. Engineer completed job in the hour, no fuss, no stress. Highly recommend, will use again. "
