Blocked Drainage

"Happy drains are very professional, nice and tidy service. Turned up on time, great thing they kept me informed of their arrival time and finished the job quickly. They definitely exceed my expectations. Will rebook them in future if need be."

Drain clearance

"The service engineer came out on call-out in good time, assessed the problem with my drain and gave a very good, professional service. He was friendly and very informative, cleared the blockage and took pains to leave everything clean and tidy before leaving."

Unblocking drain

"The blocked drain was identified quickly. The work was done very professionally and any mess cleaned up. Very happy with the service."

Blocked external drain

"I had a blocked drain (external to the property). I previously had someone to look at and they explained that the drain had likely collapsed and quoted to fix (over £1k). I thought I would double check. Happy Drains visited and drain was clear within minutes (blocked trap) with no requirement to dig up garden and replace drains (or use a camera). 60 day guarantee inc in case it blocks again. Engineer was polite, friendly, cleanly dressed and professional. As he said 25 years of experience. Great job, highly recommend (and I will be recommending further)."
