Blocked drain
"I had a major blockage in one of my drains. Called happy drains who responded very quickly. It took a couple of attempts to clear but they done an amazing job"
Heavily blocked waste pipes.
"Fantastic service and employees. Arranging the appointment was exceptionally easy as the people on the phones were friendly and efficient. Jason from Happy Drains arrived on time and even called ahead to let us know exactly when he'd be arriving. Jason was polite and friendly from beginning to end. He sorted out the problem far quicker than expected considering the dire state of the blockage. After he'd done a wonderful job he then explained exactly how it had happened in detail, what needed to be fixed and told me some preventative measures to help avoid the problem from recurring until then."

Blocked sewerage drains
"Happy Drains receptionist quickly arrange a visit the following morning to unblock our drains. We received a call 45 mins before arrival and the drains which had been blocked for 48 hours were unblocked within a few minutes, which was excellent as man hole covers in a neighbours garden were opened and showed that the drains were being exclusively used by our house. Excellent job by Happy Drains. Wouldn't hesitate to use them again. Quick polite and courteous."

Blocked kitchen sink drain
"I noticed that the patio was awash with soapy water and realised that the drain leading from the kitchen sink was blocked and overflowing. I phoned Happy Drains and they were so helpful. Arranged for someone to call round between 1 and 3. I arrived home at 12.55 to find them patiently waiting outside. They were very friendly and helpful. Did a thorough job clearing the drain, lifting the manhole cover and making sure the water was flowing freely. I was delighted with their service and would definitely recommend them."
