The main drain from bathroom blocked. Backed up to kitchen drain.
"This was my 87 yr old mother's house. We lifted the manhole cover thinking maybe we could unblock it, but it was full. So any water drainage was just overflowing. Euch!! A neighbour recommended Happy Drains. Phoned them about 9.30 Saturday morning. They were with her by 6. They kept in contact all day to let us know the expected arrival time. Super friendly, excellent communication, good price. Great service, especially for my elderly mum. Thankyou"
