Shared sewer blocked and unresponsive to my jet wash efforts.
"Happy Drains responded quickly and operative Tony arrived within an hour. No faffing-inspected the problem. Using specialist grab tool removed gravel and a bent spoon !! from the offending area then jet washed clear and restored proper flow. Area left clean and tidy. Would definitely recommend. Thanks Team Happy."
Unblocking of Exterior Gutter Downpipe
"Fast, friendly same-day service. The plumber was professional, efficient, and handled a tricky blocked drain on the side of our 4th-storey building with care. All sorted quickly-despite the 30-degree heat!"
Unblocking of kitchen sink
"Paul was extremely professional and very tidy clearing up afterwards"
Blocked external drain
"I had a blocked drain (external to the property). I previously had someone to look at and they explained that the drain had likely collapsed and quoted to fix (over £1k). I thought I would double check. Happy Drains visited and drain was clear within minutes (blocked trap) with no requirement to dig up garden and replace drains (or use a camera). 60 day guarantee inc in case it blocks again. Engineer was polite, friendly, cleanly dressed and professional. As he said 25 years of experience. Great job, highly recommend (and I will be recommending further)."
