Blocked drain from ensuite.
"Called Happy Drains about 9am as my ensuite toilet was blocked which was the only working toilet at the time. They advised that someone could be with me between 10am and 12noon. Two guys arrived just after 12 and went to work straight away to clear the blockage, which they did quickly, cleanly and professionally. Based on this I would use Happy Drains again. "

Had a really bad block in my drain effecting washing machine and boiler
"Amazing experience. Fast, knowledgeable and efficient. Called them at 12 pm they were here by 3pm... here 30 mins and problem sorted Very experienced and good value Thank you. "
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)."
Overflowing blocked outside drain
"I am very pleased with the service from Happy Drains! I decided to go with you as the price given over the phone was made clear from the beginning and no hidden fees, also payment was easy and straight forward. BIG thanks to the man who came out to fix my drain he was excellent, very professional, polite and did a great job. Thanks "
Sewer clearance
"Cleared the pipe blockage between our house and the sewer main. Lovely guy visited, explained what he was doing and why and made sure all ran free before leaving."

The main drain from bathroom blocked. Backed up to kitchen drain.
"This was my 87 yr old mother's house. We lifted the manhole cover thinking maybe we could unblock it, but it was full. So any water drainage was just overflowing. Euch!! A neighbour recommended Happy Drains. Phoned them about 9.30 Saturday morning. They were with her by 6. They kept in contact all day to let us know the expected arrival time. Super friendly, excellent communication, good price. Great service, especially for my elderly mum. Thankyou"

Kitchen drain Blocked
"I had a big block on my kitchen drain. My kitchen is the result of a garage conversion with long drains and hard access. Happy drains came after a few hours from my call and fixed the problem. They had to open an access on the laundry and charged a reasonable amount to do that. Very happy and would call them again!"
Back garden drain unblocked
"The challenge was to unblock my drain in the back garden with no rear access. All equipment needed to be brought through the house. It was too much of a risk to use a pressure washer for a single crew. However the engineer fully cleared the drain using his available tools/ equipment."
Toilet and drain blockage
"Chris arrived during the time that he advised and was courteous and professional. He cleared the blockage and checked to ensure there was no remaining debris. Highly recommended and would definitely call again."
