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.

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.

Toilet unblocking
We had Arran come round to unblock our toilet after I tried all the usual DIY attempts. He explained everything fully, told us the options and tried everything possible without going in to the more costly fixes. He completed the job within the an hour and the cost was exactly what was quoted on the phone. He explained how to prevent it happening again and had a great chat about other DIY things around the house. Definitely would recommend.
