Unblock Drain
"Great service.Rang at 7.45am came at 9.15am . Job completed by Jack quickly and very efficiently. The price was prearranged so no shocks! Will definitely use again if necessary..Brian D "
Unblocking drains.
"I called Happy Drains on Easter Saturday evening as my mums drain had become blocked. Unfortunately with it being Easter weekend nothing could be done until Tuesday morning. At 09:45 on the Tuesday a man arrived and within 15 minutes it was all cleared. Very helpful, polite man and a super service. Thank-you. "
Drains and stack pipe unblocking
"Really good experience. Very polite and professional. Slightly odd reason for a blocked drain (surprisingly tiling cement was blocking the base of the stack pipe), but the Happy Drains colleague came and cleared the blockage for me. They did a great job. Easy to deal with and made the process really smooth. Good pricing too. I'd happily recommend them and use them again"
Clear Kitchen Drain
"Very polite from asking if it was okay to park on the drive to explaining what the problem was, what he planned to do, showing the camera footage & clearing up & explaining guarantee. Invoice came through with amount advised. Would definitely use again."

Great reviews from our Happy Customers...

Great work on time and very clean
"They were very experienced in there work they also kept me up to date on when they were arriving. There work was clean and tidy. I would fully recommend them."
Blocked bathroom toilet
"They could not clear it initially so went outside and cleared the drain which they didn't need to (as that should be a Council responsibilty) - would recommend this company every time"
Blocked drains to whole house
"Called the mobile telephone number for Happy drains which was answered immediately, they called back with a slot 5 minutes later and 1 hour later the engineer turned up and did a fantastic job, The drains to our complete house were unblocked. Engineer was polite, professional and knowledgeable, we are delighted with the service that we received. Would highly recommend the company"
Blocked main drain.
"Spoke to Jane at the reading branch at approx 10-30, told me the price before work started and Richard arrived approx 12 noon within an hour all cleared and flushed through. Richard was very professional in his work, and made sure all the hatches were battened down after he finished. Will recommend Happy Drains to everyone. The price is very resonable."
Kitchen drain not clearing outside.
"After trying to clear outside gully by hand, I feared a major underground issue. After seeing good reviews, I called Happy Drains Norwich. A non urgent visit was agreed 8am-12. On the day, He called to advise on the way. Shortly after, he called again to advise that he had to attend an emergency and would it be OK in 1 hour. I agreed and he arrived in originally agreed time window. Relying on experience, he determined that the gully outlet was in a surprise position and he removed bits of concrete and old fat. Quick job but fee was ok for his experience and his very flexible wrists!"

Bank Manager
"From start to finish the process of clearing our blocked drain and the ease of the online payment was brilliant."
Blocked drain cleared
"Blocked drain was cleaned out and working again in no time at all . The appointment was made over the phone and the engineer rang when he was on his way . He used a high pressure jet and left everything tidy. "
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. ?'??'??'?"
