Margate and Kent drain services from a firm receiving great feedback...

Blocked kitchen sink drain
"I noticed that the patio was awash with soapy water and realised that the drain leading from the kitchen sink was blocked and overflowing. I phoned Happy Drains and they were so helpful. Arranged for someone to call round between 1 and 3. I arrived home at 12.55 to find them patiently waiting outside. They were very friendly and helpful. Did a thorough job clearing the drain, lifting the manhole cover and making sure the water was flowing freely. I was delighted with their service and would definitely recommend them."
Kitchen Gully Cleared
"Fast and reliable service, called at 9am and engineer was at my property within 2 hours. The engineer was super friendly and explained the reasoning behind our issue, whilst tidying up after himself. Very reasonable pricing too. Would recommend. "
Blocked Drain
"Happy drains were great from start to finish! They had immediate availability to come to my house and sent a super helpful tradesman called Darren who quickly unblocked the drain and showed me how to do it myself in future. Highly recommend!"
