Drain cleared
"Happy Drains contacted me within minutes of posting my requirement. Their communication was always very clear, and the one time I misunderstood something, they immediately contacted me by phone to politely correct my error. The plumber contacted me by phone to give me 20 minutes notice of his arrival. On arrival, he immediately assessed the situation, and rectified it using equipment within the vehicle. The whole process took just minutes, and he explained the causes of the issue to me. At the same time he checked all other connected drains and made good the area."
