Folkestone and Kent drain services from a firm receiving great feedback...

Drain clearance
"I have used Happy Drains before, and again they provided an excellent service from the original phone call right up to the finished job. We were out when they arrived, and just got back after they finished, but after a mobile phone call they proceeded immediately. Everything was tidy, clean and in place on our return, so if you have a problem of this nature, I can honestly recommend Happy Drains 100%. Finally the cost of £114 was real value for money."
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."
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. "
