Blocked sink
"Very prompt and efficient, Bob explained what he was doing and what he had found as the main cause of the blockage."
Cleared outdoor drain blockage
"Excellent service from Gordon and Tommy - were prompt and gave us really honest and useful advice. We used Access a couple of months ago who massively overcharged and were misleading in their pricing and advice. We were really pleased that they gave us honest advice about how to really fix the issue and were generally very helpful. Will be using them again if we have more issues!"
Clear blocked drain from toilet connection
"Brilliant service from Happy Drains. David and Matt arrived on time as stated and assessed the backed up manhole. They used a High Pressure Water Jet system to clear the pipe as my own rods wouldn't get into the access point. The blockage was cleared and they even sent a camera down which revealed root mass in pipe from a boundary hedge. Needs further work/options to now deal with that otherwise it'll just block again in the future. Polite, professional, skilled and efficient. A pleasure to deal with these guys and all that for what was reasonable cost. 5 stars."
Clearing blocked drain
"Brilliant service. Turned up within a couple of hours. Unblocked the drain and checked with camera. Fast and efficient - and at a fixed price. Can't recommend them highly enough!"

Blocked toilet
"Quick service and well priced which is a nice surprise from a fairly large company."
Clearing a drain
"Quick, reliable, no drama, no fuss. Job well done. Was very efficient and easy. I'm very grateful"
Rear garden drain blockage due to bow in-ground pipe.
