Blocked outside drains
"Very courteous plumber, explained everything he was doing and investigated thoroughly to find out the problem and then fixed it."
Sewer clearance
"Cleared the pipe blockage between our house and the sewer main. Lovely guy visited, explained what he was doing and why and made sure all ran free before leaving."
Blocked main drain.
"Spoke to Jane at the reading branch at approx 10-30, told me the price before work started and Richard arrived approx 12 noon within an hour all cleared and flushed through. Richard was very professional in his work, and made sure all the hatches were battened down after he finished. Will recommend Happy Drains to everyone. The price is very resonable."
Drains Blocked
"Very Pleased with the service provided by Happy Drains - I've use them before because they are so good, quick and efficient - Oh and very reasonable compared to some Drain Cleaners we wont name them but you'll know who I mean. Happy Drains were out the day after Id emailed to say I had a problem with my outside drains completely backed up - not a pretty sight. They kept me advised when they were arriving and what to expect - the engineers were both very able and very friendly - they had the drains unblocked very quickly and with minimum fuss. Highly Recommend - I wouldn't use anyone else."

Kitchen Waste Clearance
"Very effective service, timely arrival (when promised), collaborative approach (listened to what work had already been understaken), speedy resolution (less than 20 minutes) - would definitly use again"
Supplied and installed 2x patch liners and to carry out flush through via jetting.
"Very professional, courteous & amenable.. special thanks to Gordon & Tommy who carried out the works. Highly recommended!"
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!"
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?!"

Clearance of blocked soak away
"Several people looked at the issue, suggesting that significant works may be needed to resolve. Spoke to Happy Drains, explained things well over the phone, suggested it may be a simple job to unblock it. Arrived quickly, did the job and all seems well. Very pleased "
Happy Drains = Happy Homeowner
"Fantastic service, drain was unblocked in no time. Mark was fantastic and professional. Thank you, price was great with no hidden cost. I had a builder who advised they may have to lift the tiles to get to the drain, luckily escaped that as I would have had to replace the entire kitchen "
