Efficient Professional Company (Happy Drains)
My trusted plumber gave us the contact details of Happy Drains. After contacting the company, the technician was at my house within 60 minutes (for a blocked kitchen drain so not a real, real drop everything emergency!) He kept me informed of what he had to do and was very professional and efficient. Very quickly the blockages were removed and flushed out and we had running water through the system again. We were impressed with Happy Drains and would recommend the company to anyone needing a drain unblocked.

Lancing's Coastal Drainage Challenges
Lancing's proximity to the coast creates specific drainage issues we've tackled for over two decades. Salt air accelerates pipe corrosion while sand and coastal debris infiltrate systems during storms. Our engineers understand how these conditions affect different property types across BN15, from seafront homes to inland developments. We recently cleared a shared drain serving multiple properties in nearby BN13, demonstrating our expertise with complex coastal drainage networks.
Local Housing and Drainage Systems
Lancing's varied housing stock includes Victorian terraces with original clay drainage alongside modern developments with updated systems. Each era presents distinct challenges - older properties often have damaged pipes from ground movement, while newer builds may have installation issues. Our recent drain clearance work across BN14 and BN15 showcases our ability to handle this diversity. We carry specialized equipment for both heritage and contemporary drainage systems.
West Sussex Geology and Ground Conditions
The chalk and clay geology beneath Lancing affects drainage performance and repair methods. Ground movement can crack older pipes while clay expansion impacts newer installations. Our no-dig repair technology minimizes disruption to West Sussex properties while our high-pressure jetting handles blockages caused by ground infiltration. This geological knowledge, combined with £10 million insurance coverage, ensures safe, effective repairs across all Lancing soil types.
Recent Work in Lancing
CCTV Drain Survey BN11
Comprehensive CCTV Drainage Survey
Issue:
The client required a detailed CCTV drainage survey to obtain an accurate evaluation of the underground pipework serving the property. The aim was to assess the structural and service condition of the system, identify any developing or existing defects, and ensure the drainage infrastructure was functioning correctly. This type of survey is commonly used to detect issues such as cracks, fractures, scale build-up, joint displacement, water retention, root ingress, or partial blockages that could impact performance.
Outcome:
The CCTV survey delivered a comprehensive record of the internal drainage system, offering the client a clear understanding of current performance and any maintenance needs. The footage and accompanying observations provided transparency over the system’s structural condition, enabling the client to plan future remedial works, routine maintenance, or further investigative surveys as required. The findings support informed decision-making and help prevent unexpected drainage failures.
