In Wandsworth we are particularly good at drain surveys and investigations

There’s no doubt about it, moving home is expensive, and Wandsworth Home Buyer’s structural surveys used to be relatively straightforward.

A building surveyor would attend the Wandsworth house you were going to buy and undertake inspection, ranging from the entry level ‘valuation’ up to the ‘full structural’, none of which were cheap. The majority of buyers would opt for the entry level and least expensive option their mortgage lender would accept in Wandsworth Greater London SW18. Against a backdrop of litigation and a compensation culture, surveyors have had no choice but to add disclaimers about anything he or she can’t actually see or inspect, especially underground services like drains.

Hence the recent additional need of a specialist drainage survey for Wandsworth properties.

Partially blocked toilet

"Couldn't not fault Happy Drains. I put out a job request on check a trade on a Friday night around 11:00pm Saturday morning had a call back from the office . They would have come out same day but my choice to wait until Monday. The pricing was fixed so no hidden costs and I was made aware before the job was done. The whole team from the girls in the office to the guy who came out to sort out the toilet could not have been more helpful. The job was done with minimum disruption quickly and efficiently Monday morning. Would highly recommend Happy Drains fantastic service ."

Blocked drain

"Rang Happy Drains at 930am. I was promised a visit between 10 and 2. Gordon came at 1030am. Drain clear by 1045am. Tidy, polite, efficient and effective. Second time I've had Gordon (in 4 years). Excellent service at good fixed price."

Unblocking kitchen sink

"I moved into my new flat only to find that the prior owner had left me a spectacularly blocked kitchen sink. It filled up when running the tap and dishwasher, and overflowed when I ran the washing machine. Got a plumber to check u-bend, then another company to rod. Still blocked - despair! Then stumbled on Happy Drains. Damien arrived promptly, was chipper and my god was he determined to get to the bottom of the issue. He was incredibly experienced, knowledgable and methodical. It took 2 and a half hours but he got to the bottom of it. I am ecstatic! Highly recommend."

Surface water drains needed clearing as they were backing up in heavy rain

"Arrived on time, asked about the issue, inspected the access, cleaned from both points of access and cleared a build up of silt and some ingressing roots as well and checked the drain was free flowing No mess, fuss or trouble - totally professional from start to finish - have already recommended to others - first class allround"

Overflowing blocked outside drain

"I am very pleased with the service from Happy Drains! I decided to go with you as the price given over the phone was made clear from the beginning and no hidden fees, also payment was easy and straight forward. BIG thanks to the man who came out to fix my drain he was excellent, very professional, polite and did a great job. Thanks "
