Unblocking drain
"From when you call them, you are dealing with a real person and with that comes efficiency. 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."

Plotting and mapping of Hornchurch drains
We can plot Hornchurch drains by sending a pulse wave emitting sonde and plot its course with a receiver as it traverses the pipe.
The Sonde can operate in 8 kHz and 33 kHz .The dual frequency Sonde is ideal for tracing the path of a pipe or locating collapses in drains. The depth range of the Sonde is up to 5m in ideal conditions but 3m is nearer the mark in the real world applications.
We are clear, concise and customer friendly...

Blocked External Drain
"I am very satisfied with the service which was prompt, efficient and swift! The man who came to do the work turned up at the time I was given, was polite and knowledgeable and did the job quicky. I am delighted with this company and wouldn't hesitate to recommend."
Unblock drain re kitchen sink
"Happy Drains sent Alex who was superbly focused and dedicated. He rapidly identified the blocked kitchen sink that had not been resolved by a plumber was a drainage issue (as suspected), found the drains, identified the correct one linked to the kitchen, sent a camera down to find the blockage, and rinsed it away with high pressure water jet. Took an hour, with a lot accomplished. No additional or unexpected charges. Very happy with their service and professionalism (given dealing with these sorts of issues can be a minefield of distrust)."
Unblocking a kitchen runaway.
"They arrived within the stated timeframe, the man explained the problem and how he would deal with it. The work was done swiftly and satisfactorily. Wouldn't hesitate to call them again if necessary or to recommend them to anyone else."
Blocked Soil Pipe
"This is a great Company. I called them at 10.30am to request a visit to sort out a blocked toilet system at my daughters place and the Engineer arrived at 3.00pm (within the time slot initially given). Within minutes he (Luke) had identified the issue and not long after, the blockage was cleared and a working toilet was restored. I would recommend these guys to anyone seeking a prompt service, provided by people who know exactly what they're doing."

Happy drains made a happy customer
"Had a blocked down pipe that was causing gutter water to back up. Called Happy Drains on Friday afternoon and they sent someone out on Monday morning. Called prior to arrival and once he arrived he explained what he was going to do and what issues may transpire. Worked quickly and the drain was cleared in no time. Will definitely use Happy drains again if I ever have a drain problem."
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)."
Blocked and overflowing toilet
"The company contacted me straight away. They confirmed a time and rang to say within half an hour of arrival. They were very efficient, friendly and professional as well as courteous and knowledgeable. Faultless. Would definitely recommend."
