Areas we cover across Newcastle upon Tyne and surrounding areas

Our drainage engineers cover the whole of the Newcastle upon Tyne area. Furthermore, we serve Gateshead, Sunderland, South Shields, North Shields, Whitley Bay, Tynemouth, Cramlington, and Hexham. Whether you live in a Victorian terrace in Jesmond or a modern home in Cramlington, we can reach you quickly. Consequently, we service residential and commercial properties of all sizes — from a single blocked sink to complex multi-unit drainage networks.

Business hours and availability

Our standard appointment slots run Monday to Saturday, 8am to 6pm. However, for urgent drainage issues — flooding, sewage backup, or any health risk — our emergency team operates 24/7, including bank holidays. For planned work such as CCTV surveys and maintenance jetting, we offer early morning and weekend slots. Additionally, emergency calls are answered directly by our dispatch team, not a call centre.

Drainage emergency?

If you are dealing with flooding or sewage backup, call us straight away. Therefore, our emergency engineers carry pumping equipment, jetting gear, and repair materials. They are available around the clock. Since drainage emergencies worsen quickly, the sooner we arrive, the less damage your property will sustain.

What to tell us when you call

Specifically, having these details ready helps us dispatch the right engineer with the right equipment, giving you the fastest possible resolution:

  • The type of problem you are experiencing — blocked drain, slow drainage, flooding, bad smell, or sewage backup
  • Which fixtures are affected — toilet, sink, bath, shower, external drain, or manhole
  • Your property type — house, flat, tenement, bungalow, or commercial premises
  • Whether the issue is inside the property, outside, or both
  • How long the problem has been occurring and whether it is getting worse
  • Your postcode, so we can provide an accurate response time estimate
