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.

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.

Runcorn and Cheshire drain services from a firm receiving great feedback...

Fast, friendly, professional and really efficient
"Really fast and friendly response, kitchen sink has been an ongoing issue for years, I've always managed to clear it partially but eventually blocked solid, someone arrived first thing the next morning and the drain was completely cleared within ten minutes, having the correct experience and tools was obviously the answer"
Blocked drain
"Quick response; good diagnosis on what to do; right equipment to clear the problem; did the job and explained how to reduce recurrence / maintainence. Good people to do work locally. And fair pricing "
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. ?'??'??'?"
