Kendal Drain Locating, Mapping and Plotting
With the latest drainage tech, we can send a radio wave emitting sonde into your Kendal pipework, and we can then plot its courses as it traverses the pipework. We are then able to provide you with depths and directions of the inspection chamber we have access to, and we can include these in your technical report.
We will produce a report to confirm, size, material, connections, junctions, conditions and directions of the foul drainage. Before carrying out the survey, we will assume that you will have made all chambers accessible and that the pipework is clear and without blockages.
When we carry out our surveys, we will make sure to include the areas that are your responsibility, and we will identify if the drain is shared and if any of the issues you may be having are on your boundary or not.

Unblocking a horribly blocked, full to the brim with excrement toilet.
"I do everything I can to avoid trades doing dobs as I have had so many bad experiences and there are so many cowboys. Sean from Happy Drains was everything good about a tradesman. Punctual, police, personable, happy in his work and did an excellent job for us. No hesitation to give Happy Drains 10 / 10 for an excellent service."
Overflowing Sewage
"We emailed at 6:30am and Happy Drains were on site at 10am and the problem was fixed in just under an hour."
Outside drain blocked and overflowing.
"Happy Drains came when arranged, with a call ahead to give 30 minutes' notice of arrival. Their lovely gentleman assessed the blockage, explained what it was and how caused. And cleared it completely, in 15-20 minutes. He left the area 100% clean and tidy and finally, offered us some useful advice on managing the drain going forward. Could not have been a better customer experience and we'd recommend to anyone."
Perfect Service
"Martin was very helpful and unblocked our back garden drain in no time. He was very professional and mindful of the house, he didn't leave a mess and was gone within half hour. Couldn't be happier!"

Main drain was completely blocked
"I called them in the morning. The person who answered was extremely nice, knowledgeable and helpful. An appointment was booked for that same afternoon. The engineer called 45mn before arriving and was right on time. He was very nice, polite and did a great job. They all made the costs very clear all along. My problem was solved, there no surprises with the price which was perfectly justified. I will definitely call them again if I have a problem again."
Blocked drain
"The men turned up and got on with the job straightaway. They were very polite and very helpful. I was very pleased with their work and the fact the drain was unblocked"
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."
