Blocked kitchen drain

"Company responded quickly to request for drain clearance. Appointment made and carried out as requested within 48 hours. Great service!!"

Huge blockage in Soil Stack

"We had been living without a bathroom for weeks, after no effort from the landlord we came on checkatrade and found happy drains. The gentleman that came out was absolutely amazing! Cleared the blockage completely using his jets and camera. Such a nice bloke (Chris), had a laugh and definitely made us feel comfortable. Gave us a call half an hour before and was on time too which was fab. Affordable price and great service! Would 100% recommend!"

CCTV down a well pipe

"They kept me informed about the visit and the engineer turned up when he said. The work was carried out efficiently and under difficult circumstances as there had been a flood and it was quite difficult to manoeuvre his equipment as there were obstacles all over the place. The engineer was friendly, informative and courteous. He explained what he was doing as he went along. The advice was sound even though he had never encountered the situation . The report was clear and straightforward . I found this a very pleasant firm. I wish they had the expertise to deal with the well, I'd use them."

Unblocked outside drains

"Ashley turned up within an hour of me calling the company. He got straight to unblocking my drains nothing was too much trouble. He went above and beyond to sort the problem. I had complete confidence in him. Would definitely recommend. Thanks"
