Customer in Paddington
Unblocking of Exterior Gutter Downpipe
Fast, friendly same-day service. The plumber was professional, efficient, and handled a tricky blocked drain on the side of our 4th-storey building with care. All sorted quickly-despite the 30-degree heat!
Customer in Kilburn
Highly recommend.
Called Happy Drains as although drain wasn't blocked it was smelling and there were drains flies. Excellent communication from all, keeping me informed as to time etc. They came the next day, on time, and hosed the drains out. Very nice guy, did the job efficiently, left drain clean and running freely, and within a few days 99% of the drains flies were gone. Highly recommend.

I used Happy drains to survey the drains of the house I bought in Kew Gardens SW London. From the initial phone call they were professional and efficient and friendly. The guy turned up on time, very professional and knew his stuff. Turnaround of the report was super quick, it was comprehensive, and included video and was easy to share with the estate agent . It gave me peace of mind to continue with the purchase. They were competitively priced and I would highly recommend

Clogged kitchen sink pipe
"I was really glad with the service that they provided. They just sent someone the same day that I called ,and they were able to unclog the pipe within the same day. I was really happy, I wished that I would've called them sooner as I was trying for over a week to clear it myself without getting any results... and I also was really happy with the customer service and their payment method, It was really easy to pay with the link that they sent me and they charged me the amount that It was agreed by phone, without any extra fees... I definitely recommend it to everybody "

1st time customer - Excellent experience
"1st time using Checkatrade. Polite and efficient experience from beginning to end, with clear/ transparent pricing + quick availability of plumber. I chose to use Happy Drains... who were available same day to unblock kitchen sink. Damian from Happy Drains was friendly and cheerful, but always polite and professional and persistent with unblocking drain. Damian had a powerful acqua vac that was required to unblock the drain. Not an easy job, but Damian persisted and determined to get job done. No surprises with charges...exactly as quoted and very reasonable. Recommended."

Richard from Happy Drains arrived within a couple of hours. He was extremely professional, courteous and respectful of our property when carrying out the work. Once finished he carefully explained what the issue was and remedial action needed. Very Happy and would we thoroughly recommend them. Thank you!"
