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"
Blocked outside drain
"Two engineers arrived less than an hour after my phone call. They were very helpful and informative and completed the job extremely efficiently. Pricing fair. Would definitely use again. "
Blocked drain
"We had a drain which had got progressively blocked over a week, with a complete blockage over the weekend. Found Happy Drains via a Google search and on the Sunday morning, requested a booking for the Monday via their online form. Monday am I get a call from their office to book the job in, 30mins later they arrive and have the problem sorted and advise me how best to avoid the same problem in the future. Very good service, would recommend. "
Blocked domestic manhole
"From the moment I picked up the phone to contact someone about the blockage to the work completed the service was exceptional. Kelly knew what work I would need doing with my frantic explanation and calmly and professionally advised she would contact me back with an update. 10 minutes later I was told I could have an engineer in as little as 2 hours. The engineer arrived promptly. Professional, friendly service carried out with honest and transparent future care advice. Was able to easily Apple Pay an hour later for service following my invoice. No hidden fees. Cost was as advised. Very happy."
