In Houghton Le Spring we are particularly good at drain surveys and investigations

There’s no doubt about it, moving home is expensive, and Houghton Le Spring Home Buyer’s structural surveys used to be relatively straightforward.

A building surveyor would attend the Houghton Le Spring house you were going to buy and undertake inspection, ranging from the entry level ‘valuation’ up to the ‘full structural’, none of which were cheap. The majority of buyers would opt for the entry level and least expensive option their mortgage lender would accept in Houghton Le Spring Tyne and Wear DH4. Against a backdrop of litigation and a compensation culture, surveyors have had no choice but to add disclaimers about anything he or she can’t actually see or inspect, especially underground services like drains.

Hence the recent additional need of a specialist drainage survey for Houghton Le Spring properties.

Illegal connections in Houghton Le Spring and other dodgy works

During the course of any survey we will take the opportunity to make sure that all your drains are connected appropriately. 

The causes of illegal Houghton Le Spring drainage connections range from innocent DIY plumbing mistakes to poor building practices. We regularly find washing machines discharging to the Tyne and Wear rain drains and rain drains that discharge into a sewer some times because some Houghton Le Spring home owners have been unaware of the differences between surface water and foul waste drains. However the water company serving Houghton Le Spring will demand to put these issues right at your own cost.

Partially blocked soil pipe.

"Glad I called Happy Drains when I got an issue with my downstairs toilet overflowing! Damian attended within 24 hours and got straight to it, no fuss, no "hmmmm... (you know what comes next) deep breath intake, etc..). Damian was a pro and worked his way round the problem until it got done. I'm not squeamish for these kind of jobs but I soon realised that blocked drains require professional equipment and experience! Happy customer"

Sewage drain unblocked

"Cannot recommend enough. Called and had appointment for the next morning. Jason called to confirm he was 20 minutes away, arrived promptly and the issue was solved within 20 minutes! He explained clearly what the issues were. Excellent service from start to finish. Highly recommend 😁?'?"

Excellent Service

"I had a blocked exterior drain that was backing up into the house and needed an emergency call out. I called for a quote and Happy Drains called me back to say they couldn't get out to me due to unforeseen circumstances but were Happy to talk me through clearing the blockage over the phone. 10/10 service!"

Blocked drain

"Amazing service. I couldn't recommend these guys highly enough. I don't have his name but the young man who came took well over 2 hours to fix our problem which had accumulated over 40 years. He kept everything tidy, was courteous and professional and just when I thought we were going to be left with a major problem his persistence & experience saved the day."
