Professional, Proactive Service
We recently used Happy Drains and was very pleased with the overall service. From the first point of contact, the process was straightforward and easy to arrange. Although the initial appointment had to be cancelled due to weather and there was some brief confusion around the revised date, the team quickly resolved the issue and prioritised the job. These things can happen, but I was impressed with the proactive communication and the way the situation was dealt with and resolved professionally and efficiently. I wouldn't hesitate to use them again and would recommend.

Rang Happy Drains for help with blocked drains. They gave me a date and time when engineers would come out together with a quote. All went well, turned up on time explained the procedure and the extra work that would be needed, was kept informed during the time they were here and they worked hard to unblock the drains. Engineers disinfected the area inside and out before they left. Would recommend Happy Drains.

Quality work from Happy Drains.
Excellent service from start to finish with Happy Drains. Would highly recommend the company to others. Quality work carried out on site, was kept informed along the way, work completed to a high standard and was checked and rechecked before leaving site. They even cleared up the broken and damaged drain parts and made area looking good again before leaving. Felt pricing was fair given the work involved and happily paid the bill the same day as felt confident in the workmanship.
Customer in Matlock
Fair set price, no funny business just a great and reliable service.
Brilliant as always. I've used Happy drains on many occasions for my holiday let properties and here is why - they charge a flat fee and never have a problem spending a little extra time if required, they are always professional and arrive on time and with the required equipment and always get the job done. If they can't fix it straight away they are quick with the CCTV to diagnose without charging silly money. They are honest, reliable and that is why I only use happy drains.
