CCTV Drainage Investigations and Surveys in Thatcham
We invest in the latest leading-edge drainage tech, to give you an accurate reading using industry best practice of what we find. It will highlight any drainage defects, such as fracturing, joint displacements and root intrusion.
Once we understand the defects with your Thatcham drains we will be able to provide the best value solution. The costs and explanations of the works recommended are detailed and explained in our report to you.
Drain Locating, Mapping and Plotting in Thatcham
If you need to know the exact location of your Thatcham drainage pipework, for example, for a ‘build over agreement’, then our technology can help! We send a sonde into the pipework with the camera; the sonde emits a signal which then tracks it as it travels your Thatcham drainage system.
By carrying out this optional extra service, it means we get all the information needed for your plans.
As part of any CCTV drain survey in Thatcham, we will always check to see which drains you have responsibility for and importantly which are not your responsibility. These will all be indicated on the plans and technical report, alongside defects, pictures and a quotation for any remedial works that are needed.
NB If the work that is needed is off your boundary you are not generally responsible for those as they become an asset of the water company if you are on a mains sewer system. We will outline the area and give you an understanding of what's down to you to sort out. It will be an evidence-based approach to prove or disprove a liability.

Blocked external drain
"I had a blocked drain (external to the property). I previously had someone to look at and they explained that the drain had likely collapsed and quoted to fix (over £1k). I thought I would double check. Happy Drains visited and drain was clear within minutes (blocked trap) with no requirement to dig up garden and replace drains (or use a camera). 60 day guarantee inc in case it blocks again. Engineer was polite, friendly, cleanly dressed and professional. As he said 25 years of experience. Great job, highly recommend (and I will be recommending further)."

Blocked Drain
"I recently used Happy Drains for a drain unblocking service. They were incredibly efficient and reliable, arriving on time and getting the job done swiftly. The technician explained the problem clearly and followed up with some useful before and after photography. I would highly recommend their services for anyone in need of professional and dependable drain solutions. Their prices are extremely competitive too!"
Kitchen Sink Drain Blockage
"Telephoned Happy Drains early morning. Was told a technician would come to me late afternoon. He arrived at 4pm after telephoning to advise his arrival time. He asked where the blockage was and then got on with clearing it. No time wasted. Once the U bend had been taken apart the blockage was sucked out. Then the U bend was reassembled to show me the blockage had been cleared. All done very efficiently and effectively with very little mess being caused. I was very pleased and impressed."
Clearing blocked drain
"The engineer turned up bang on time. He was polite, reassuring and completely competent. He resolved the problem quickly and efficiently. One very happy customer."
