Highly recommend.
Called Happy Drains as although drain wasn't blocked it was smelling and there were drains flies. Excellent communication from all, keeping me informed as to time etc. They came the next day, on time, and hosed the drains out. Very nice guy, did the job efficiently, left drain clean and running freely, and within a few days 99% of the drains flies were gone. Highly recommend.

I used Happy drains to survey the drains of the house I bought in Kew Gardens SW London. From the initial phone call they were professional and efficient and friendly.

sewer pipe blockage
Tommy & Gordon Happy Drains' amazing guys, saved me from another drainage company I called who overcharged for their incomplete services and wanted several £1000's! for further work! Found & phoned Happy Drains for second opinion. Will @ Happy Drains was so helpful and got Tommy & Gordon on the case. They arrived promptly and using their camera technology found the issue, and cleared the drains. No additional work required! Received very clear report of work with photos. Very reasonable price. Honest, trustworthy, tidy and HAPPY, cannot praise them enough!!!!!!!!!!

Drain issues
We booked in a clean because our drain in the back garden smelled like rotting eggs. The technician took off the manhole cover and could see it was completely blocked. He had all the tools on hand to unblock the drain and it looks sparkling now. He was very knowledgable and we learned a lot about Victorian drains! Would definitely use again!

Blocked kitchen sink drain
"I noticed that the patio was awash with soapy water and realised that the drain leading from the kitchen sink was blocked and overflowing. I phoned Happy Drains and they were so helpful. Arranged for someone to call round between 1 and 3. I arrived home at 12.55 to find them patiently waiting outside. They were very friendly and helpful. Did a thorough job clearing the drain, lifting the manhole cover and making sure the water was flowing freely. I was delighted with their service and would definitely recommend them."
