Downstairs loo and sink unblocking, by jetting upstream from manhole in the garden.

"Brilliant. From the first phone call to saying goodbye. Job explained, job completed and everything works perfectly. The young guy called Tommy from Sunbury was top drawer. Going to do this jetting annually now."

Very happy with Happy Drains...

"Very friendly communications on phone with office and with the plumber who attended (Luke) - problem sorted promptly. "

Highly recommend

"I used Happy drains to survey the drains of the house I bought in Kew Gardens SW London. From the initial phone call they were professional and efficient and friendly. The guy turned up on time, very professional and knew his stuff. Turnaround of the report was super quick, it was comprehensive, and included video and was easy to share with the estate agent . It gave me peace of mind to continue with the purchase. They were competitively priced and I would highly recommend "

Unblocking drain

"Having used Happy Drains previously, I contacted them about a blocked drain on my property. They responded immediately, sent engineers who were prompt, professional and friendly and had the job done in 25 minutes. Just to top it off, the price was the same as my last call-out with them two years ago. Excellent service all round."

Drainage survey

"Honestly the most efficient business I have come across. Called up and had a drainage survey booked in within 5 minutes at a very reasonable price. Jason who conducted the survey was very polite and helpful and William was great with getting the survey over to me in a very timely manner. Would highly recommend."

Toilet unblock

"Came and sorted it quickly, helped me realise how easy it would be to do by myself in the future and checked that water was flowing freely outside. Did a good job by all accounts. "

Jet washing rainwater drain

"The job was done quickly and thoroughly by Derick who was polite and considerate throughout."

5* Service was Over and Above expectation.

"This is the second time I have used Happy Drains the Service provided last time was superb. This time it was even better! With no appointments available to clear my elderly mothers blocked toilet, Happy Drains rearranged a schedule to conduct the work to limit inconvenience. Joe attended and was absolutely first class keeping me updated directly at the request of my confused elderly mother. It is so reassuring to be kept informed of the detail when you are 80 miles away so I could explain it in simple terms to my mother, I recommend Happy Drains 100% and commend Joe for the 5* Service."
