Called Happy Drains as although drain wasn't blocked it was smelling and there were drains flies.

Very nice guy, did the job efficiently, left drain clean and running freely, and within a few days 99% of the drains flies were gone. Highly recommend.

Customer in Hertford
Blocked waste pipes
I just wanted to say thank you for some free advice given to me this afternoon when I rang the Freephone number on your website. When I explained my problem, the advice given to me was to call my water company as the problem I had was probably their responsibility and not mine. This was, indeed, the case and Thames Water have just been and cleared the blockage in the shared pipes serving our few houses. You could have sent someone to clear the blockage and charged me accordingly, but you didn't and I want to thank you for your honesty, integrity and for the advice so freely given'
