Unblocking sink

"The workman arrived on time, having given me a call 10 minutes before to say he was on his way. He was courteous and thorough - made sure the blockage was cleared and gave me advice on preventing a repeat. Would happily recommend"

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."
