Cleared the pipe blockage between our house and the sewer main. Lovely guy visited, explained what he was doing and why and made sure all ran free before leaving.
Customer in Lee-On-The-Solent
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.

Blocked drain
Amazing service. I couldn't recommend these guys highly enough. I don't have his name but the young man who came took well over 2 hours to fix our problem which had accumulated over 40 years. He kept everything tidy, was courteous and professional and just when I thought we were going to be left with a major problem his persistence & experience saved the day.

My unhappy drain is now delightful
My stinky drain, was a source of shame. Seems its leaves to blame, but Happy Drains came and now its new name is Delightful Drain!! Excellent service, from start to finish. Friendly, informative, efficient and I would highly recommend to anyone who also wants a delightful drain :)
Customer in Hungerford
Drains and stack pipe unblocking
Really good experience. Very polite and professional. Slightly odd reason for a blocked drain (surprisingly tiling cement was blocking the base of the stack pipe), but the Happy Drains colleague came and cleared the blockage for me. They did a great job. Easy to deal with and made the process really smooth. Good pricing too. I'd happily recommend them and use them again
