Efficient Removal of Smell from Shower
We were getting a bad smell from our shower after use. It was clearly more than just a regular maintenance job. I was very impressed by both the Customer Service with Happy Drains and and how the Engineer managed to trace the smell from our complex drainage system. Communications with everyone at Happy Drains throughout the process was first class.
Fantastic service, job done , no issues . Highly recommended.
We have used Happy Drains Ltd couple of times in last 2-3 years. Highly recommended company. Very quick response. Their employee called an hour before arrival to makes sure we are at home. On arrival he asked all important questions to fully understand what the issue was. It was blocked waste pipe by the kitchen sink/washing machine. He managed to clear /clean all from outside of the house . He checked in the kitchen that there is all clear , no leaks etc. Very very professional service. Highly recommended
