Trustworthy drain cleaning/unblocking
I emailed Happy Drains in the morning and was emailed back with a very competitive fixed price quote. On accepting the quote I was called and told they could be with me that afternoon. I then had a call when they were 30 minutes away. Extremely efficient service that went beyond what was expected. Everything was left clean and was finished within an hour . A happy company with great people. Deal with confidence.

Drain blockage cleared
We had a rapid response to our online enquiry and an appointment was booked in for a few hours later. We had a phone call informing us that they would arrive within 14 minutes and they did!

Blocked rain water drains cleared.
KT arrived on time was polite, professional and kept me very well informed about what he was going to do and what he established about the drains. Excellent tradesman.
Customer in Lee-On-The-Solent
Unblock an outside pipe
Unfortunately the pipe was blocked with concrete which appears to have happened when the garden fence was erected. However, the tradesman wrote the reason it was blocked on the invoice which helped when I contacted the tradesmen who erected the fence.

Blocked drain
Amazing service. I couldn't recommend these guys highly enough. I don't have his name but the young man who came took well over 2 hours to fix our problem which had accumulated over 40 years. He kept everything tidy, was courteous and professional and just when I thought we were going to be left with a major problem his persistence & experience saved the day.

My unhappy drain is now delightful
My stinky drain, was a source of shame. Seems its leaves to blame, but Happy Drains came and now its new name is Delightful Drain!! Excellent service, from start to finish. Friendly, informative, efficient and I would highly recommend to anyone who also wants a delightful drain :)
Customer in Southsea
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).
Customer in Portsmouth
Blocked Gully
Great service from Happy Drains ! Unblocking our external gully, great response time when booking the job in, arrived exactly on time and carried out a thorough job. Would highly recommend and certainly use again.
Customer in Hungerford
Drains and stack pipe unblocking
Really good experience. Very polite and professional. Slightly odd reason for a blocked drain (surprisingly tiling cement was blocking the base of the stack pipe), but the Happy Drains colleague came and cleared the blockage for me. They did a great job. Easy to deal with and made the process really smooth. Good pricing too. I'd happily recommend them and use them again
