Friendly on the phone when making first contact. Agreed provisional time and received a prompt call back to confirm. The issue was identified promptly, corrected with advice given on how to avoid it in future. A very good tidy up after and all done. Would use again.
Customer in Sawbridgeworth
Fixed the problem with efficiency and professionalism.
I happy to recommend this company. They were easy to contact and the engineer came when they said. They charged a fixed price which included what needed to be done to fix the problem which took away any uncertainty about the cost. The engineer fixed the problem efficiently at the visit and gave a report of what was found and done. Five stars!

Blocked drain from ensuite.
Called Happy Drains about 9am as my ensuite toilet was blocked which was the only working toilet at the time. They advised that someone could be with me between 10am and 12noon. Two guys arrived just after 12 and went to work straight away to clear the blockage, which they did quickly, cleanly and professionally. Based on this I would use Happy Drains again.

Customer in Cambridge
Clear waste pipes which were blocked and causing ongoing problems.
We were encountering ongoing blockages with waste water from the kitchen sink. Other tradesmen had not adequately resolved the issue despite numerous attempts.
Customer in Cambridge
Old and recently unused drain was starting to give off bad smell. Apparently the water in the U-bend which normally prevents smells coming from the sewage pipes had evaporated. Drain was flushed through and U-bend topped up.
Work was carried out in a timely manner. Engineer was polite, informative and efficient.
Customer in Sandy

Drain smell in utility sink.
They were punctual, and efficient. The problem was communicated and I was shown the area of blockage. I called the previous day, so service was very quick. Good service, honest conversation that this may not fully elevate the odour. So far, so good.

Top guys, friendly, knowledgeable and professional. Would have Gary back anytime.

Blocked washing machine drain
Blocked pipe leading from washing machine meant it emptied water all over the floor. I rang for appointment at 9.30 and by 2.30 the guys had been and fixed it. They had to take the main drains cover off and drill "upwards". I never knew you could get fatballs from using fabric conditioner! Utterly lovely guys. Great Service. Great price. In fact, to quote Mary Poppins - Practically Perfect in Every Way. Would HIGHLY recommend them.
Customer in Bedford
Unblocked downstairs toilet drain. CCTV check
I am absolutely delighted with happy drains. I emailed an enquiry late evening, and got a phone call 20 minutes later. They came out to fix the problem the following day. I was not at home, but the guy rang me to let me know he was on his way. He happily accepted my call later that day to ask what the problem was, as I was so pleased it had been fixed! Definitely reccomend them 100%. Thank You so much for such a lovely experience!

Efficient Professional Company (Happy Drains)
"My trusted plumber gave us the contact details of Happy Drains. After contacting the company, the technician was at my house within 60 minutes (for a blocked kitchen drain so not a real, real drop everything emergency!) He kept me informed of what he had to do and was very professional and efficient. Very quickly the blockages were removed and flushed out and we had running water through the system again. We were impressed with Happy Drains and would recommend the company to anyone needing a drain unblocked."
Blocked Kitchen Drain
"We found Happy Drains to be very quick and efficient. Contacted them via their website mid-morning and Tony arrived in the early afternoon of the same day and cleared our blocked drain. It was also nice to get a report / record the following day along with their invoice. We would have no hesitation in recommending these guys, they did a splendid job."
Drain clearance
"Happy Drains responded promptly to my request to unblock a drain. They have done the same for two neighbours now and have been recommended on our local WhatsApp. Came out same day, kept me updated on when they were coming.

Heavily blocked waste pipes.
"Fantastic service and employees. Arranging the appointment was exceptionally easy as the people on the phones were friendly and efficient. Jason from Happy Drains arrived on time and even called ahead to let us know exactly when he'd be arriving. Jason was polite and friendly from beginning to end. He sorted out the problem far quicker than expected considering the dire state of the blockage. After he'd done a wonderful job he then explained exactly how it had happened in detail, what needed to be fixed and told me some preventative measures to help avoid the problem from recurring until then."
Drainage survey
"Honestly the most efficient business I have come across. Called up and had a drainage survey booked in within 5 minutes at a very reasonable price. Jason who conducted the survey was very polite and helpful and William was great with getting the survey over to me in a very timely manner. Would highly recommend."
Clear Kitchen Drain
"Very polite from asking if it was okay to park on the drive to explaining what the problem was, what he planned to do, showing the camera footage & clearing up & explaining guarantee. Invoice came through with amount advised. Would definitely use again. "
Main soil pipe blokage was cleared.
"Professional, courteous and reliable. The call was booked with a friendly and professional demeanour. The tradesman who visited was clear in explaining what was required and the work that was carried out after he'd completed it. The blockage was mainly due to a build up of limescale over a very long period of time and was cleared quickly and effectively. Wouldn't hesitate to recommend Happy Drains."

"Very efficient and professional service. Quick response and helpful advice. Would recommend Happy Drains :)"
Sewage drain unblocked
