Emergency Drainage Call-Outs in Romford

A 24 hour emergency response for blocked, overflowing or collapsed drains.

When your drains cannot wait

Drainage emergencies do not wait for office hours. We respond to urgent problems at homes and businesses across London and Essex, work out the cause and carry out the work needed to get things running again.

Call-outs cover the problems that cannot wait: sewage backing up into a property, an overflowing manhole, a toilet that will not drain or a pipe that has failed underground. On arrival we find where the problem is, deal with the immediate cause and explain what else, if anything, needs doing.

Where a quick clear is enough, we clear it and check the drain is flowing. Where something is damaged, we can carry out a CCTV survey to see inside the pipe and tell you the repair options, from no-dig patching and lining to excavation.

What's included

  • Blocked drains and overflowing toilets
  • Overflowing manholes and inspection chambers
  • Blocked sinks and backed-up showers
  • Damaged, leaking or collapsed drain pipes
  • Diagnosis of the cause before work starts

Amazing Service – Highly Recommended! I can’t thank the drainage team enough for their amazing work! I had a serious problem with my pipes, and everything was completely blocked. The team spent hours working hard to clear the blockage and sort out the problem. They were extremely professional, friendly, patient, and dedicated. Even though it was a difficult and time-consuming job, they didn’t give up and made sure everything was properly cleaned and working again. I was really impressed by their hard work, kindness, and positive attitude. They went above and beyond, and I truly appreciate all their effort. A massive thank you to the whole team! You are a credit to your company. I would highly recommend you to anyone who needs drainage services!

Phoned these guys that came out within two hours and got my mum‘s drains unblocked within 40 minutes. She’s always had a problem with this for a long time, it’s nice to deal with honest reliable people and at a very fair price definitely recommend this company, thank you again guys.

Fully recommend to anyone with plumbing issues as they genuinely care to provide a good service and check up on the situation after. Had Jake over to check my loft bathroom and main bathroom on separate occasions and sorted out the problem ASAP and told us the next best steps to reduce costs in the long run. They encouraged us to go with the most cost effective option even if it was not benefitting them directly (in this case our newly done bathroom was having issues which came under a warranty).

The team done a great job, I had 3 manholes to replace on my drive that were collapsing. They replaced with much better heavier duty ones.

Not going to lie these guys actually know their stuff, not some shady guys that’ll give you the run around that your landlord knows… Anyway they came out on the day in an emergency and even went beyond to check the root of the issue! Will be coming back to them as they’re no nonsense. Also they said ETA was 1-2 and they made it here at one, don’t usually leave reviews but they definitely deserved one
