South West London CCTV Drain Survey & Drainage Investigation
Greater London, SW1


In South West London we are particularly good at drain surveys and investigations
There’s no doubt about it, moving home is expensive, and South West London Home Buyer’s structural surveys used to be relatively straightforward.
A building surveyor would attend the South West London house you were going to buy and undertake inspection, ranging from the entry level ‘valuation’ up to the ‘full structural’, none of which were cheap. The majority of buyers would opt for the entry level and least expensive option their mortgage lender would accept in South West London Greater London SW1. Against a backdrop of litigation and a compensation culture, surveyors have had no choice but to add disclaimers about anything he or she can’t actually see or inspect, especially underground services like drains.
Hence the recent additional need of a specialist drainage survey for South West London properties.

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 Unblocked

Main drain to house needed to be unblocked
"The drain was unblocked very efficiently. The job was done in a neat and tidy manner and we were very happy with the outcome."
Blocked drain from the kitchen sink.
"We had a blockage under the house on the drain that runs from the kitchen sink. A friend who is actually an engineer who specifies drains sad he had used Happy Drains and they were good. The engineer arrived on time and used his camera to locate the blockage which was fat and some sort of sauce that had congealed in the drain. He then used a high pressure water lance to loosen the deposit and then wash it out of the drain. All done in about 50 mins. The fixed fee of £95 plus Vat means you know where you stand and you also get a 60 day guarantee. I would definitely use Happy Drains again."
