Customer in Lewes
Quick, efficient and friendly service
Contacted Happy Drains about an external awkwardly located blocked domestic drain mid afternoon. The receptionist was clear in explaining the service and helpful in setting up a booking with an engineer. They were able to come the following morning and clear the drain quickly and efficiently in very inclement weather. Gary was really helpful and knowledgeable. The drain is now free running again. I would certainly recommend Happy Drains for their service.

Drain clearing prior replacement in restaurant to reduce odour.
Prior drainage replacement, used Happy Drain to service pipes. To eliminate unnecessary smell in restaurant. They used Spartan machine and running water to clear up. Results were good. Will use again when needed.

Happy drains for a happy life
I've used Happy Drains for many years. From complicated jobs (rebuilding a damaged sewer drain) to just a quick unblock. The last job was a simple blocked main drain. They came in the afternoon, called ahead to tell me the time they would be arriving. It was a simple job but when you have a household using the shower and toilet it needed to be sorted. They are local, don't mess around and for the price, I've been charged more for less.
Customer in Brighton
Great service at a reasonable price
Rang at 9 and they came two hours later the same day! Excellent service clearing my blocked drain and reasonable price.
Customer in Seaford
Shared sewer blocked and unresponsive to my jet wash efforts.
Happy Drains responded quickly and operative Tony arrived within an hour. No faffing-inspected the problem. Using specialist grab tool removed gravel and a bent spoon !! from the offending area then jet washed clear and restored proper flow. Area left clean and tidy. Would definitely recommend. Thanks Team Happy.

Fast, friendly, professional and really efficient
Really fast and friendly response, kitchen sink has been an ongoing issue for years, I've always managed to clear it partially but eventually blocked solid, someone arrived first thing the next morning and the drain was completely cleared within ten minutes, having the correct experience and tools was obviously the answer

Customer in Peacehaven
Kitchen Drain Unblocked
I had originally called British Gas Home Emergency Service who sent out a DynoRod engineer. I had put unblocker chemicals down the drain which had failed to clear the blockage. When the DynoRod engineer saw the chemicals he refused to continue the job stating it was too risky as the chemicals are very harmful, and said nothing could be done for 72 hours after using the chemicals. Happy Drains attended 24 hours later and cleared the blockage with no fuss, and no injuries!
Customer in Peacehaven
Cleared the drain in my kitchen
The gentleman who came was very helpful, tidy and gave good advice for ongoing drain maintenance. I marked them down in reliability and timekeeping because an admin error at their end meant my appointment was not noted down as it should have been and he was later than I thought. However, the workman was totally honest about this when he arrived and apologised. I was impressed with his honesty about it. I would not hesitate to use them again as everything else was brilliant.
Customer in Peacehaven
Unblocked sewer.
I called at 4 pm and was told they could try to get someone out in the hour but would most likely be in the morning. 5 minutes later I received a call back saying they would be out within the hour. 40 minutes later a guy knocked on the door and 1/2 hour later he was leaving after a job well done. I can not recommend this company enough really professional, friendly and an amazing service from start to finish.

Drain Jetting
"Happy Drains were incredible, I requested a quote and received one in mere minutes through their website! I tried a few competitors and a few came back a day or two later and others I still haven't heard from! I found the quote given to be competitive and they had good availability which worked around my busy lifestyle. I highly recommend Happy Drains and will continue to use them for any other difficult drainage or plumbing issues!"
Great company.
"Oh my. Brilliant. Fast and difficult work carried out by Dan (Danny). Sorted out my drain blockage that was caused by a long shank 25mm masonry drill bit that must have been lost during the conversion of my home. I cannot give enough praise to him and the company for their fast and efficient help."

"Tommy & Gordon Happy Drains' amazing guys, saved me from another drainage company I called who overcharged for their incomplete services and wanted several £1000's! for further work!

Honest, trustworthy, tidy and HAPPY, cannot praise them enough!!!!!!!!!! "
