Cleaning out drains & clean-up
"Wonderful service. Super friendly customer service, who picked up immediately and got me booked in, they were flexible with timings. They came on time, were quick and efficient and left everything tidy and clean. It was a difficult and smelly job since the drains were very blocked up. SO appreciate the wonderful service, could not recommend more!"
Blocked Soil Pipe
"This is a great Company. I called them at 10.30am to request a visit to sort out a blocked toilet system at my daughters place and the Engineer arrived at 3.00pm (within the time slot initially given). Within minutes he (Luke) had identified the issue and not long after, the blockage was cleared and a working toilet was restored. I would recommend these guys to anyone seeking a prompt service, provided by people who know exactly what they're doing."
Blocked kitchen gully
"Ben and Sean were excellent, cleared our blockage in no time, then checked further down the run and cleared a mass of roots from another manhole we had no idea had a problem. Punctual, polite and efficient. A job well done."

"1st time using Checkatrade. Polite and efficient experience from beginning to end, with clear/ transparent pricing + quick availability of plumber. I chose to use Happy Drains... who were available same day to unblock kitchen sink. Damian from Happy Drains was friendly and cheerful, but always polite and professional and persistent with unblocking drain. Damian had a powerful acqua vac that was required to unblock the drain. Not an easy job, but Damian persisted and determined to get job done. No surprises with charges...exactly as quoted and very reasonable. Recommended."
