Always very helpful and reliable
Happy Drains have carried out numerous surveys and cleaning/jetting jobs for us - they are very quick to respond if required fir an emergency blockage and they are always very helpful on site when carrying out surveys.
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'

Blocked drain
Birmingha based: Blocked outside drain that STW 'cleared' - and promptly filled up again! Went to find a few companies (one promised to turn up and didn't...) and finally found Happy Drains Had one of the politest conversations I've ever had about sewer problems! the guy on the phone was friendly and recommended some things to do about the flooding that had occurred and scheduled a call in the next few days.. One visit later, everything cleared up! did a 'look see' camera inspection (costs extra btw) and was talked through how the piping was and if any remedial work was needed Really reccomeded!

From the opening initial phone call enquiring about their services, Happy Drains were great..The lady on reception understood what I needed straight away, asked me a couple of questions..and booked the call...Even though I'd never called them before, I wasn't asked to pay upfront, not even a deposit, The guy who came out was great, no tutting and scratching his chin and shaking his head, just dived straight in and did the job...and fixed the problem!

Heavily blocked waste pipes.
"Fantastic service and employees. Arranging the appointment was exceptionally easy as the people on the phones were friendly and efficient. Jason from Happy Drains arrived on time and even called ahead to let us know exactly when he'd be arriving. Jason was polite and friendly from beginning to end. He sorted out the problem far quicker than expected considering the dire state of the blockage. After he'd done a wonderful job he then explained exactly how it had happened in detail, what needed to be fixed and told me some preventative measures to help avoid the problem from recurring until then."
