Customer in Hornchurch
Great service
Excellent service, the engineer was professional and friendly. Clear pricing.
Customer in Basildon
Great communication and fixed price drain clearance
From the first phone call enquiring about drain clearance with Emily to the actual work being carried out was less than 3 hours. I knew immediately upfront what the cost would be and how much extra if a Saturday call out was needed. I was kept informed by phone and email and received a call from the engineers 30 mins prior to arrival. They very quickly identified and cleared the problem clearing up any slight mess they made. Hope not to need this service again but if I do would Happily use Happy drains again.

Bath Sink/Pipe Issue
Rang up pm was told what it would cost so no surprises, arranged visit for next day am, operative rang to tell me his arrival time. He arrived on time did a quick survey of the problem and got on and solved the issue. At the end showed me pictures of the limescale which had blocked the pipe. Left with sink/drain running well. What more can you ask!!

Customer in Orpington
Unblocking of drain/sewage pipe
The drain engineer arrived punctually. He made the area safe for passers by, as the drain hole cover was in the pavement outside in the street. He cleared the immediate blockage with a rod but then used the power water jet to flush out the whole pipe and clear away the accumulated grease and fat causing the blockage. At one point he practically disappeared inside the drain to remove a ball of fat with his hand! He was extremely thorough and efficient and left the drain sparkling clean! He was polite and friendly throughout. An overall top notch service!

Clearing a blocked / slow draining kitchen sink
I called Happy drains regarding my blocked sink which has started blocking my dishwasher too.I think I must have spoken to Emily at Customer service and she was very polite and explained the process to me. I got a plumber in my house in less that 2 hours! He managed to unblock the pipes super quick and made sure to clean any spillages left after. I am extremely happy with the service I have gotten as I am always so scared that am going to be overcharged over something I don't understand. The process was simple, affordable and quick. I would recommend and go back if needed.

Blocked drain
"Called Happy Drains as couldn't unblock my drain with my rods. The guy came and connected his jet wash to my hosepipe and sprayed the jet along the pipe with immediate effect! Unblocked in less than than 5 minutes. Excellent customer service and so rewarding to have running drains again. It was a build up of fat. "

I called them at 10.30am to request a visit to sort out a blocked toilet system at my daughters place and the Engineer arrived at 3.00pm (within the time slot initially given).
