Highly recommend.
Called Happy Drains as although drain wasn't blocked it was smelling and there were drains flies. Excellent communication from all, keeping me informed as to time etc. They came the next day, on time, and hosed the drains out. Very nice guy, did the job efficiently, left drain clean and running freely, and within a few days 99% of the drains flies were gone. Highly recommend.

Clearing stagnant, blocked gully/drain
Everyone I spoke to before and during the job was friendly and helpful.

Investigate and Clear External. Blocked Drain
Was a great experience. Easy to organise. A touch late on the day but was kept informed.. Joe was great where he turned up. Explained everything and didn't upsell unnecessarily. Was efficient, polite and friendly. Great all round. Nice report/record at the end of it. Great contrast to some of the trade service experiences that you can have quite often.

I used Happy drains to survey the drains of the house I bought in Kew Gardens SW London. From the initial phone call they were professional and efficient and friendly. The guy turned up on time, very professional and knew his stuff. Turnaround of the report was super quick, it was comprehensive, and included video and was easy to share with the estate agent . It gave me peace of mind to continue with the purchase. They were competitively priced and I would highly recommend

Tommy & Gordon Happy Drains' amazing guys, saved me from another drainage company I called who overcharged for their incomplete services and wanted several £1000's! for further work! Found & phoned Happy Drains for second opinion. Will @ Happy Drains was so helpful and got Tommy & Gordon on the case. They arrived promptly and using their camera technology found the issue, and cleared the drains. No additional work required! Received very clear report of work with photos. Very reasonable price. Honest, trustworthy, tidy and HAPPY, cannot praise them enough!!!!!!!!!!

Drain issues
We booked in a clean because our drain in the back garden smelled like rotting eggs. The technician took off the manhole cover and could see it was completely blocked. He had all the tools on hand to unblock the drain and it looks sparkling now. He was very knowledgable and we learned a lot about Victorian drains! Would definitely use again!

Quickest and easiest unblocking i've seen!
"After so many expensive quotes from other companies regarding a clogged drain outside our kitchen window - Happy Drains answered our questions on Checkatrade and gave us a set quote - After talking to them on the phone, the team were kind, honest and fully transparent about how the day would go - One of their team members (unfortunately didn't get his name) came over, took one look at the drain, unblocked it and was on his merry way! Will definitely be recommending this company to friends and family!! Thank you so much team! "
