Blocked Drain
"Happy drains were great from start to finish! They had immediate availability to come to my house and sent a super helpful tradesman called Darren who quickly unblocked the drain and showed me how to do it myself in future. Highly recommend!"
Unblocking a drain
"The Happy Drains technician (Tommy) came round very quickly and had our drain sorted in minutes. Very nice and knowledgeable chap would definitely recommend. "
Drain unblocked without an issue
"Noticed a blocked drain over the weekend. Booked an appointment for Monday and the guy did it professionally. It turned out to be a slightly bigger job as the blockage was in the neighbours drain so the guy helpfully unblocked their drain as well. Would definitely recommend this company and I will be using them in the future too. "
Drain unblocking
"Excellent company to deal with. Polite, friendly and reasonably priced. A credit to the drain industry! Will certainly be recommending them and will be using them again. Special mention and thanks to Josh the expert drain man. Finally, paying them online (following receipt of invoice) was so easy, if you use the weblink they send you. Why can't all trades companies be like this?!"

kitchen drain completely blocked
"Their service was exceptional. Very professional, and they solved the most important problem! Considering that two plumbers and Thames Water visited us but only tried to rush and squeeze extra money, resolving the problem partially."

Blocked Soil Pipe
"This is a great Company. I called them at 10.30am to request a visit to sort out a blocked toilet system at my daughters place and the Engineer arrived at 3.00pm (within the time slot initially given). Within minutes he (Luke) had identified the issue and not long after, the blockage was cleared and a working toilet was restored. I would recommend these guys to anyone seeking a prompt service, provided by people who know exactly what they're doing."
