Grays and Essex drain services from a firm receiving great feedback...

Blocked drain cleared
"Excellent and prompt service. Reliable and efficient. I will definitely use this company again and I have already recommended them to neighbours. "
Unblocked a kitchen sink waste pipe
"The company was quick to respond to my initial call. The job was completed the following afternoon taking less than 15 minutes to complete. The technician was very polite and helpful. There was no call out fee or a dodgy plumber shaking his head for five minutes, making you think you've got a massive crisis on your hands. I will use this firm again in the future without doubt. "
Unblock drain re kitchen sink
"Happy Drains sent Alex who was superbly focused and dedicated. He rapidly identified the blocked kitchen sink that had not been resolved by a plumber was a drainage issue (as suspected), found the drains, identified the correct one linked to the kitchen, sent a camera down to find the blockage, and rinsed it away with high pressure water jet. Took an hour, with a lot accomplished. No additional or unexpected charges. Very happy with their service and professionalism (given dealing with these sorts of issues can be a minefield of distrust)."
