Unblocking a horribly blocked, full to the brim with excrement toilet.
"I do everything I can to avoid trades doing dobs as I have had so many bad experiences and there are so many cowboys. Sean from Happy Drains was everything good about a tradesman. Punctual, police, personable, happy in his work and did an excellent job for us. No hesitation to give Happy Drains 10 / 10 for an excellent service."
Outside drain blocked and overflowing.
"Happy Drains came when arranged, with a call ahead to give 30 minutes' notice of arrival. Their lovely gentleman assessed the blockage, explained what it was and how caused. And cleared it completely, in 15-20 minutes. He left the area 100% clean and tidy and finally, offered us some useful advice on managing the drain going forward. Could not have been a better customer experience and we'd recommend to anyone."

Very polite on the telephone and also the drain engineers on site were very polite and just got on with the job. They showed you the unblocked drain before leaving the site and explained what I would receive in the report via email. Thoroughly recommend them and very good value. For the amount of crap they have to unblock each day, the service is spotless."
