Customer in Birmingham
Highly satisfied - a great company to deal with
Wow, what a brilliant service provided. The engineer fully explained how my drain system worked, and then told me what he was doing as he carried out his work. He was friendly, respectful, and extremely knowledgeable. He offered great advice, and options for the repairs, and he prioritised them. When I received the full interactive report, I was amazed at the clarity of the cctv drain footage, and the ability to understand and physically see the stages at where the repairs were recommended in the sewer system. In summary, a brilliant job from start to finish. I highly recommend Happy drains'
Customer in Hyde
Would recommend Happy Drains.
Rang Happy Drains for help with blocked drains. They gave me a date and time when engineers would come out together with a quote. All went well, turned up on time explained the procedure and the extra work that would be needed, was kept informed during the time they were here and they worked hard to unblock the drains. Engineers disinfected the area inside and out before they left. Would recommend Happy Drains.

Happy Drains Experience
We contacted Happy Drains first thing in the morning, and by early afternoon, the job was completed. The operator who attended was extremely professional, knowledgeable, and efficient, taking the time to explain what was needed and getting everything sorted without any hassle. The whole experience was easy from start to finish, and we were really impressed with the quick turnaround and quality of service. We would definitely use Happy Drains again and wouldn't hesitate to recommend them.

Quality work from Happy Drains.
Excellent service from start to finish with Happy Drains. Would highly recommend the company to others. Quality work carried out on site, was kept informed along the way, work completed to a high standard and was checked and rechecked before leaving site. They even cleared up the broken and damaged drain parts and made area looking good again before leaving. Felt pricing was fair given the work involved and happily paid the bill the same day as felt confident in the workmanship.

Great service, quickly sorted and reasonable price thanks
Customer in Matlock
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.

Happy Drains have been amazing from start to finish, the lady on the phone was super helpful and booked us in as soon as possible.

Our engineer rang half an hour before arrival as promised, was such a lovely guy I can't thank him enough for doing such a thorough job! He even spent time talking to our neighbours to check the blockage wasn't effecting their houses! 100% recommended

Retford and Nottinghamshire drain services from a firm receiving great feedback...

Unblocking of drain/sewage pipe
"The drain engineer arrived punctually. He made the area safe for passers by, as the drain hole cover was in the pavement outside in the street. He cleared the immediate blockage with a rod but then used the power water jet to flush out the whole pipe and clear away the accumulated grease and fat causing the blockage. At one point he practically disappeared inside the drain to remove a ball of fat with his hand! He was extremely thorough and efficient and left the drain sparkling clean! He was polite and friendly throughout. An overall top notch service!"
Happy with Drains
"Was very happy with the work that was carried out by Daniel done a professional job kept in contact all the time whilst he was working at the premises. Couldn't fault his work and looking forward to using you again in the future."
Drain Blockage Clearance
"Had a blocked drain. Engineer came out next day, and cleared block and did an exceptionally thorough job."
