Job was done perfectly and their price was considerably better than others and as such represented excellent value! Hope I won't need them again (?...) but should I do, they would be my automatic choice. Heartily and unreservedly recommend them based on our experience "

Drain unblocked
"Arrived on time. Explained the issue. Cleared in 10 mins. Excellent. However, little over priced. "
Unblocking a very smelly bathroom sink
"I rang Happy Drains at 8:45am on a Monday morning to say I had a blocked and very smelly drain in the bathroom sink. They sent someone out who arrived at 11am - he unblocked the sink, checked the shower and toilet in the same bathroom, took photographs and cleaned everything perfectly. Such great service in such a timely manner. We also use Happy Drains at my work place and have always found their team great!"
Drain Blockage
"Very quick to respond to enquiry and came out same day to fix. Efficient and great service."
Drain unblock
"Great service from start to finish. Ordering the service was easy with the online form. The contact phone call early in the morning to confirm that Happy Drains rep would be with us between 0800-1200 was very comforting. The engineer himself was extremely professional and cleared the blockage very quickly. He then cleaned the whole system and ensured we had no other issues before he left. The cost of all this was very reasonable considering other comparable companies. Please pass on my thanks to all concerned. ?'??'??'?"

Blocked outside drain
"very efficient service. Fixed price quoted over the phone and invoice received by email. As promised, I received a call to tell me he was on his way. Once he arrived he got on with the job, with the minimum fuss, cleared the drain, thoroughly tested to make sure it was completely clear and left with no mess."
Drain and sewer clearance
"Realised I had a problem when had to almost swim to the car. Thought I was covered by B Gas Homecare but I wasn't. Called out Happy Drains, competitive price, friendly and helpful on the phone. Turned up when they said they would. Quickly assessed the situation and cleared the sewer. Cleaned up and left. Staff were friendly and polite. I couldn't ask for more, would recommend them "
Blocked bathroom drains
"Happy Drains were friendly on the phone and were able to attend the problem on the same day. The engineer attending the problem kept me informed on his arrival time and was polite and finished the job quickly. Would definitely use Happy Drains again."
