Unblock an outside drain
"The staff at the office very kind and well spoken.. The work was completed on time. Invoice sent on email with photographs before the job and after the work was completed. Perfect as I am a landlord and can't always attend when the repairs are taking place to see what was done. Thanks to happy drains I'm a happy landlord until the next job?... "
Happy drains made a happy customer
"Had a blocked down pipe that was causing gutter water to back up. Called Happy Drains on Friday afternoon and they sent someone out on Monday morning. Called prior to arrival and once he arrived he explained what he was going to do and what issues may transpire. Worked quickly and the drain was cleared in no time. Will definitely use Happy drains again if I ever have a drain problem."
Drain clearance
"I have used Happy Drains before, and again they provided an excellent service from the original phone call right up to the finished job. We were out when they arrived, and just got back after they finished, but after a mobile phone call they proceeded immediately. Everything was tidy, clean and in place on our return, so if you have a problem of this nature, I can honestly recommend Happy Drains 100%. Finally the cost of £114 was real value for money."
Unblocking drain
"Having used Happy Drains previously, I contacted them about a blocked drain on my property. They responded immediately, sent engineers who were prompt, professional and friendly and had the job done in 25 minutes. Just to top it off, the price was the same as my last call-out with them two years ago. Excellent service all round."

We can plot Southport drains by sending a pulse wave emitting sonde and plot its course with a receiver as it traverses the pipe.
The Sonde can operate in 8 kHz and 33 kHz .The dual frequency Sonde is ideal for tracing the path of a pipe or locating collapses in drains. The depth range of the Sonde is up to 5m in ideal conditions but 3m is nearer the mark in the real world applications.
