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. "

Kitchen external drain blocked, and now it's now.
"Good communication from the initial call, though to the engineer updating us on his arrival time. Quick clean job, a very professional service."
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. "
