Customer in Gosport
Great Service! Quick response! Well priced!
I have used Happy Drains Gosport a few times when the drains have been blocked. They are always quick to come out and they do a very good job. They left the area clean and tidy. They even email images of the issue with a full report which I personally find very helpful. They are well priced and I have no complaints at all. I would recommend them highly for anyone with a blocked drain.

Drain unblock
Great service from start to finish. Ordering the service was easy with the online form. The contact phone call early in the morning to confirm that Happy Drains rep would be with us between 0800-1200 was very comforting. The engineer himself was extremely professional and cleared the blockage very quickly. He then cleaned the whole system and ensured we had no other issues before he left. The cost of all this was very reasonable considering other comparable companies. Please pass on my thanks to all concerned. ?'??'??'?
Customer in Petersfield
Reliable service
I called Happy Drains to sort out a problem for my parents, who find it difficult to source and arrange services themselves. My communication with Happy Drains was efficient and understanding. I received information and return calls as promised, and the appointment took place as scheduled. Drainage for upstairs bathroom cleared, with photos supplied with the invoice and explanation of work completed. Very reasonable price. I recommend this company.

Customer in Alton
Kitchen Sink Drain Blockage
Telephoned Happy Drains early morning. Was told a technician would come to me late afternoon. He arrived at 4pm after telephoning to advise his arrival time. He asked where the blockage was and then got on with clearing it. No time wasted. Once the U bend had been taken apart the blockage was sucked out. Then the U bend was reassembled to show me the blockage had been cleared. All done very efficiently and effectively with very little mess being caused. I was very pleased and impressed.
Customer in Portsmouth
Partially blocked toilet
Couldn't not fault Happy Drains. I put out a job request on check a trade on a Friday night around 11:00pm Saturday morning had a call back from the office . They would have come out same day but my choice to wait until Monday. The pricing was fixed so no hidden costs and I was made aware before the job was done. The whole team from the girls in the office to the guy who came out to sort out the toilet could not have been more helpful. The job was done with minimum disruption quickly and efficiently Monday morning. Would highly recommend Happy Drains fantastic service .

Customer in Portsmouth
Blocked toilet and restricted shower drain
We called because of toilet blockage problem. We were given a quote on call. Upon arrival the engineer found out that the blockage was because of a switch being off. He looked around the room to find it. Once switched on, the toilet worked again. It was not due to blockage which we has thought. After that we requested him if he could help us with slow draining of the shower. He looked at the around and uncloged the draign in a short time. He was very polite and very willing to help. He also suggested us on what to do next time if we find the same problem. Responsive and punctual.

Customer in Portsmouth
Clearing a blocked external drain.
The team of three who came out to clear the blocked drain were excellent: pleasant, good-humoured, and very efficient, clearing the blockage within a few minutes. The senior member of the team was particularly helpful, explaining to this first-time home-owner how my Victorian drainage system worked and what is and is not my responsibility in terms of maintenance. The company is let down only by its apparently patchy record-keeping: I had to provide my contact details multiple times as information wasn't recorded and/or passed on to the main office.

"I am very satisfied with the service which was prompt, efficient and swift! The man who came to do the work turned up at the time I was given, was polite and knowledgeable and did the job quicky. I am delighted with this company and wouldn't hesitate to recommend."
Main drain was completely blocked
"I called them in the morning. The person who answered was extremely nice, knowledgeable and helpful. An appointment was booked for that same afternoon. The engineer called 45mn before arriving and was right on time. He was very nice, polite and did a great job. They all made the costs very clear all along. My problem was solved, there no surprises with the price which was perfectly justified. I will definitely call them again if I have a problem again."
Fair set price, no funny business just a great and reliable service.
"Brilliant as always. I've used Happy drains on many occasions for my holiday let properties and here is why - they charge a flat fee and never have a problem spending a little extra time if required, they are always professional and arrive on time and with the required equipment and always get the job done. If they can't fix it straight away they are quick with the CCTV to diagnose without charging silly money. They are honest, reliable and that is why I only use happy drains."

Portsmouth and Hampshire drain services from a firm receiving great feedback...

Great communication and fixed price drain clearance
"From the first phone call enquiring about drain clearance with Emily to the actual work being carried out was less than 3 hours. I knew immediately upfront what the cost would be and how much extra if a Saturday call out was needed. I was kept informed by phone and email and received a call from the engineers 30 mins prior to arrival. They very quickly identified and cleared the problem clearing up any slight mess they made. Hope not to need this service again but if I do would Happily use Happy drains again."
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."
Blocked Drain
"I recently used Happy Drains for a drain unblocking service. They were incredibly efficient and reliable, arriving on time and getting the job done swiftly. The technician explained the problem clearly and followed up with some useful before and after photography. I would highly recommend their services for anyone in need of professional and dependable drain solutions. Their prices are extremely competitive too!"
