Clearance of blocked sewage pipes
Contacted Happy Drains with a full description of the problem. An appointment was arranged. I was supplied with a list of services and prices. I was contacted on the day giving me a time of arrival. William carried out the necessary work quickly and efficiently. He was very knowledgeable and gave useful advice. Happy Drains is a great company to deal with from start to finish with no hidden costs. I would highly recommend them.
Friendly service and great job
After noticing our manhole had a blockage we phoned happy drains. They got someone out the next day which was great! The guy that did it was super friendly and got the job done quick and did a great job at clearing it. This is the second time we’ve called happy drains and we would highly recommend to others
Blocked downstairs toilet
Firstly, even getting a plumber for non-emergency work, at such short notice, felt like a Xmas miracle, but Happy Drains were there to help! From the moment they contacted me through Check a Trade, to the point the job was done I have been impressed. They were very accommodating on the phone, gave me a time slot and turned up next day. Called me 30 mins before arrival too. They dealt with my issue very professionally, were very helpful with advice and also friendly. The report with photos and invoice arrived via email after the job, which was simple to pay. Excellent service and I’d use again!

Call Now: 07824 757572Markfield's position in northwest Leicestershire presents unique drainage challenges with mixed housing stock and varied connection types. Properties in LE67 range from period homes with older clay pipes to modern developments with updated systems. Our extensive experience across this area means we understand the specific drainage characteristics, from surface water management to private sewage connections that serve properties not connected to main sewers.
The geology around Markfield includes clay substrates that can affect drainage performance, particularly during wet periods when ground conditions become saturated. These soil conditions can lead to increased pressure on drainage systems and potential for ground movement affecting pipe alignments. Our no-dig repair technology proves particularly valuable in these conditions, minimizing ground disturbance while achieving lasting drainage solutions.
Markfield's mature tree coverage creates seasonal drainage maintenance requirements, with autumn leaf fall regularly affecting gutters, downpipes, and surface drains. Winter freeze-thaw cycles can also impact older drainage infrastructure, while spring and summer growth periods see root intrusion into existing pipework. Our preventive maintenance services help LE67 property owners stay ahead of these predictable seasonal challenges.
