New frame & drain cover plus cement surround
"Lovely company to deal with. Friendly helpful staff. Contractors arrived on time & delivered exactly what we'd booked. Even though it was just drain cover it was finished off really nicely. Looks nice & smart again now. Thank you! "
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. "
Outside drain unblocked
"I called Happy Drains to clear an outside drain at my father's property, which had become blocked. The friendly lady that answered the phone very helpfully managed to get someone to come the next morning. I received a call prior to the workmen arriving, which was reassuring. They were friendly and very efficient; 25 minutes after they arrived the problem was resolved; brilliant! I would highly recommend this company."
Blocked toilet - resolved promptly and effectively
"Great service from Luke who managed to get our upstairs toilet unblocked in less than half an hour. Good customer service, was able to arrange a convenient time for the visit and Luke was very polite and courteous. The price was much cheaper than elsewhere, I will definitely use Happy Drains again for any future drain blockages!"

Jetting blocked drain and clean up of surrounding area
"They were professional on the phone and throughout the process. The Engineer was polite, timely, explained what he'd do and said he'd clean up the area afterwards. Job was done perfectly and their price was considerably better than others and as such represented excellent value! Hope I won't need them again (?...) but should I do, they would be my automatic choice. Heartily and unreservedly recommend them based on our experience "
Drain blockage
"I contacted Happy Drains to arrange for my mother's drain to be unblocked. It is stressful being 200 miles from my elderly mother, who struggles to maintain her home. I am very grateful to Happy Drains for such a seamless service, as they sorted out the issue in no time and provided good advice on next steps to avoid a repeat of the problem."
Drain cleared
"Happy Drains contacted me within minutes of posting my requirement. Their communication was always very clear, and the one time I misunderstood something, they immediately contacted me by phone to politely correct my error. The plumber contacted me by phone to give me 20 minutes notice of his arrival. On arrival, he immediately assessed the situation, and rectified it using equipment within the vehicle. The whole process took just minutes, and he explained the causes of the issue to me. At the same time he checked all other connected drains and made good the area."

Blocked drain
"Called Happy Drains as couldn't unblock my drain with my rods. The guy came and connected his jet wash to my hosepipe and sprayed the jet along the pipe with immediate effect! Unblocked in less than than 5 minutes. Excellent customer service and so rewarding to have running drains again. It was a build up of fat. "
diagnosing and clearing a blockage in the pipes
"Really great. Came within hours of calling, cleared the problem with confidence. Personable and professional, superb service"
Unblock an outside pipe
"Unfortunately the pipe was blocked with concrete which appears to have happened when the garden fence was erected. However, the tradesman wrote the reason it was blocked on the invoice which helped when I contacted the tradesmen who erected the fence."
