Blocked Drain
"Turned up promptly, assessed the situation, confirmed the quote and cleared the drain. All very quick and efficient with a very cheerful and polite tradesman. Couldn't have gone better."
Blocked kitchen gully

Unblocking a foul waste pipe outside the house
"He kept us informed by phone when he was going to arrive. He was extremely cheerful, very practical and had everything done within no time. If I ever need this sort of service again, I would definitely use Happy Drains again. Professional, completely honest and swift."
External drain for kitchen blocked
"They made arrangements easy, and kept in communication about the time of the visit. And the job was done quickly, without fuss, and with courtesy. Great job, thank you"

Bathroom sink unblocked
"I attempted to unblock our bathroom sink using a plunger, then sink clearing chemicals and finally removing and confirming the u-bend was clear, all to no avail. I went on the Checkatrade website and found Happy Drains. I called and booked a plumber to come the following day. The plumber arrived as expected, was professional, polite and got to work straight away. He cleared the blockage that was further down the pipework using a wet vacuum within 10 minutes. It's been perfect ever since."
