Sam was professional and polite, job done efficiently, thanks.
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.

UNBLOCK OUTSIDE DRAINS
This company has provided excellent first class service. DYNO ROD previously accepted our request to clear but on New Year's Eve morning declined as they were too busy and couldn't reach us until after New Year. Found HAPPY DRAINS on line, phoned and the contact was excellent, arranged a visit within an hour. Engineer arrived well within this time span was brilliant, cleared the problem quickly and efficiently. Based upon this work we would HIGHLY RECOMMEND HAPPY DRAINS and have logged their number in our Contacts folder for any future problems, THANK YOU.

Blocked external drainage.
Got the details of the company on line, gave them a call and they gave me a fixed price for the work and called me back to confirm appointment for the following morning. On the day I got a call from Brendan to say he would be with me within half an hour which he duly was. Brendan was extremely polite and courteous and got on with the job in hand. The blocked drain issue was resolved and all the remnants of the blockage were tidied away. I was thoroughly impressed with the company from start to finish and would have no hesitation in recommending them particularly if you get Brendan!

Blocked gully.
Before discovering this company, I have to confess to arranging a visit from an engineer from a more commonly known company, who not only turned up late, but was not happy about doing the job anyway as the offending gully was located in a garden lounge. He said he had run out of time anyway and left without attempting the merest operation. I then discovered Happy Drains, who turned up when stated and completed the job within 15 minutes. Good, friendly and sound advice was offered to avoid a recurrence. I highly recommend this company and would have no hesitation in booking them in future.
Customer in Canterbury
The drain from the toilet was blocked.
I came one afternoon and noticed that my driveway was full of toilet paper coming from a very blocked drain. Happy drains was able to send an engineer out the next day and successfully unblocked it (and washed everything back down the drain). I can't say for sure how my drain feels about it but I am very happy.

Customer in Canterbury
Louis L is a wonderful, very hard working young man, working for Happy Drains
Louis L was sent to my house to unblock my drainage pipe (roots in the garden section, penetrating it). He is an incredibly hard working young man! Was really, really happy with Louise's service. He did his very, very best to sort my problem, with a camera and various clever equipment, working extremely hard on it. Louis is a huge asset of his employer, Happy Drains. I sincerely hope, they appreciate him, the way he absolutely deserves it! If I have any problems in future, I will definitely ask for Louis L, to come and sort it!

Advice regarding blocked drain.
I called about a rainwater drain above a flat roof terrace that was leaking on our kitchen ceiling. Will was extremely helpful, giving advice regarding what we could do to help solve the issue without having to call someone out. Genuine concern (asking for pictures to be e-mailed and calling back a couple of times with suggestions) and was a pleasure to deal with. They'll be the first company I call should I have a drainage issue again.

Clearing blocked drain in rear garden of recently purchased property
Called on a Sunday due to decorating and noticed drains were not clearing as expected. Opened manhole cover in the rear garden and saw it to be full and blocked. Advised on the phone the earliest they could do was the following day, chaps arrived earlier than expected and had the drain cleared in less than 30 minutes. Excellent response, affordable too! Couldn't be happier.

Drain clearance
"I have used Happy Drains before, and again they provided an excellent service from the original phone call right up to the finished job. We were out when they arrived, and just got back after they finished, but after a mobile phone call they proceeded immediately. Everything was tidy, clean and in place on our return, so if you have a problem of this nature, I can honestly recommend Happy Drains 100%. Finally the cost of £114 was real value for money."
Quickest and easiest unblocking i've seen!
"After so many expensive quotes from other companies regarding a clogged drain outside our kitchen window - Happy Drains answered our questions on Checkatrade and gave us a set quote - After talking to them on the phone, the team were kind, honest and fully transparent about how the day would go - One of their team members (unfortunately didn't get his name) came over, took one look at the drain, unblocked it and was on his merry way! Will definitely be recommending this company to friends and family!! Thank you so much team!"
