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.

Customer in Chelmsford
Outside runoff drain to mains was backed up and overflowing.
Called them on a Saturday when the drain was especially playing up and within 20 minutes they rang back with the job booked in for the Monday. Friendly, prompt service on the phone, same again when the fella turned up. Done in 10 minutes. Didn't have to pay him then and there, but instead was issued online invoice and link to super-simple payment procedure. Brilliant. Highly recommended; will definitely use them again - just hope I won't have to!

Fantastic service, drain was unblocked in no time. Mark was fantastic and professional. Thank you, price was great with no hidden cost. I had a builder who advised they may have to lift the tiles to get to the drain, luckily escaped that as I would have had to replace the entire kitchen

Drain unblocked without an issue
Noticed a blocked drain over the weekend. Booked an appointment for Monday and the guy did it professionally. It turned out to be a slightly bigger job as the blockage was in the neighbours drain so the guy helpfully unblocked their drain as well. Would definitely recommend this company and I will be using them in the future too.

Blocked drain by side of my house with water coming up. Drain was unblocked and flushed through.
Nice friendly man came and completed the work (I think he was a sub contractor as he mentioned that happy drains m give work to them) Couldn't fault him for what he did. Resolved the problem in less than a hour and tied up before he left. Excellent job.

I was very impressed with the work done by Steve. He was very engaging and did a great job in finding the root cause of the problem and then resolving the issue. I liked the fact that my cost was inclusive of any comprehensive work and not charged by time periods. This gave me confidence and my expectations were managed financially. Very good service and highly recommended for anyone not sure who to call!

Fair set price, no funny business just a great and reliable service.
"Brilliant as always. I've used Happy drains on many occasions for my holiday let properties and here is why - they charge a flat fee and never have a problem spending a little extra time if required, they are always professional and arrive on time and with the required equipment and always get the job done. If they can't fix it straight away they are quick with the CCTV to diagnose without charging silly money. They are honest, reliable and that is why I only use happy drains."
Drain Blockage Clearance
"Had a blocked drain. Engineer came out next day, and cleared block and did an exceptionally thorough job."
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! "

Tommy was on time, very knowledgeable in everything he did and generous with his time; he explained everything to me and answered all my questions. I would highly recommend Happy Drains. "
