INitially cleared blockage but found root mass in the sewer so cleared that as well

"Not used this company before but when I was unable to clear a blockage in my sewer line I gave them a call. They were responsive and the engineer just got to work, identified where the sewer ran then blasted it clear. The sewer was running again within 15 mins. The knowledgeable engineer said he believed there were roots in the sewer as he could "feel" them. A camera run showed the root mass and where located. He blasted the roots from the inside then found that the majority were ingressing through the side of the sump on one of the manholes so cleared those too. Highly recommend this company"

Main drain to house needed to be unblocked

"The drain was unblocked very efficiently. The job was done in a neat and tidy manner and we were very happy with the outcome."

Drain clearance

"I have used Happy Drains before, and again they provided an excellent service from the original phone call right up to the finished job. We were out when they arrived, and just got back after they finished, but after a mobile phone call they proceeded immediately. Everything was tidy, clean and in place on our return, so if you have a problem of this nature, I can honestly recommend Happy Drains 100%. Finally the cost of £114 was real value for money."

Blocked sink

"Excellent service and much better value than the larger firms. Staff were punctual, polite and professional. They made sure the job was successfully completed."

Your surveyor may ask you to have a CCTV drainage survey carried out if they suspect there is an issue with the Reading property drains, It may be because they have spotted a blockage, there are signs of damp in the house, or it has just flagged up on your Reading home buyers survey.
