Great service
We had a very problematic drain blockage that only had access from the toilet and no manholes. The guys turned up, very professional, polite and persevered with the issue until the drains were cleared. I would 100% recommend to anyone who requires this type of service.
Customer in Harwich
The main drain from bathroom blocked. Backed up to kitchen drain.
This was my 87 yr old mother's house. We lifted the manhole cover thinking maybe we could unblock it, but it was full. So any water drainage was just overflowing. Euch!! A neighbour recommended Happy Drains. Phoned them about 9.30 Saturday morning. They were with her by 6. They kept in contact all day to let us know the expected arrival time. Super friendly, excellent communication, good price. Great service, especially for my elderly mum. Thankyou

Customer in Basildon
Great communication and fixed price drain clearance
From the first phone call enquiring about drain clearance with Emily to the actual work being carried out was less than 3 hours. I knew immediately upfront what the cost would be and how much extra if a Saturday call out was needed. I was kept informed by phone and email and received a call from the engineers 30 mins prior to arrival. They very quickly identified and cleared the problem clearing up any slight mess they made. Hope not to need this service again but if I do would Happily use Happy drains again.
Customer in Thetford
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.

Happy drains made the initial booking process very easy, the contractor arrived on time, they were professional, e.g taking shoes off when entering my home, and they did a great job and answered any question I had. Would recommend!
Customer in Chelmsford
Outside runoff drain to mains was backed up and overflowing.
Called them on a Saturday when the drain was especially playing up and within 20 minutes they rang back with the job booked in for the Monday. Friendly, prompt service on the phone, same again when the fella turned up. Done in 10 minutes. Didn't have to pay him then and there, but instead was issued online invoice and link to super-simple payment procedure. Brilliant. Highly recommended; will definitely use them again - just hope I won't have to!

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.

Customer in Colchester
Clearing blocked drain
I rang just after lunch to report a blocked drain and received a call back to say that an operator would attend within an hour although I mentioned that it was not an emergency. He arrived promptly and very quickly removed a difficult and very heavy manhole and completed the work in a very efficient manner. The operator was a very pleasant individual who carried out what was a very unpleasant job in a very good natured manner. It is many years since I have received this level of service, which is what we all hope for but very rarely get.

Clearing blocked drains.
Matt arrived within the time frame and was very polite and professional in the way he carried out the task. From phoning to the job being completed was 2 hours which is excellent on a Friday afternoon. The individual I spoke to in the office to enquire about helping clear the drains was very good and quoted the price plus vat which was what I paid once the job was completed.
Customer in Harwich
Drains checked and flow tested for blockage. None found.
Confident, pleasant young operative. Very efficient. Quickly established we had no problems. (He was later called to our neighbours where, it turned out, the blockage was! That was neighbourly then!)

Fast emergency Manningtree drainage service is our speciality and great value prices our forte
If you need your Manningtree blocked drains unblocked pronto then, all it takes is to call now, and we will be at your service, fast!
We are the local Manningtree drain solution specialists; our skills cross a variety in our ‘drain technology toolbox’.
One of our favourite examples is mostly spinning a steel cable in a motorised drum; the cable comes with a cutting head attachment, which is pretty cool or High Pressure jetting as an alternative solution which is impressive, a ‘liquid laser’. The intense pressure and flow is controlled through a nozzle at the end of a Kevlar and steel-reinforced hose and used when cutting out tree roots and to descale pipes, and it is quite remarkable!
Manningtree Drains are by nature "out of sight, out of mind". CCTV drain surveys put you back in control
CCTV drain survey cameras have become one of the most valuable tools we have. When you need to know the condition of the pipework, for example, at a new Manningtree home or Essex property you are about to buy, then it’s crucial that Manningtree homebuyers and Manningtree professional property agents get the facts. Because those facts could save you a lot of money and stress!
CCTV drain survey technology (hardware and software) is used to see and understand pipeline integrity. We record and identify drain problems, we locate and classify them individually and then work out the best and most cost-effective repairs.
Our easy to understand technical reports are in writing; this details everything you need to know about the system and also provided costed solutions.
