A flooding emergency needs urgent attention to protect your home. When drains block or overflow in heavy rain, water can flood a garden, drive, or ground floor within minutes. Foul water carries health risks and can ruin carpets, floors, and wiring. Mark your request urgent, and a local engineer with pumps and jetting gear will be dispatched.
The first few minutes decide how much damage a flood does. Read our guide on what to do in a drain emergency before you book.
Send an urgent quote request online. We give flooding jobs top priority and send the nearest free engineer straight away.
On arrival, we pump out standing water and set up barriers to stop more coming in. Where we can, we isolate the fault causing it.
We use jetting, rods, or repairs to fix the root cause. This might mean clearing a blockage or patching a collapsed pipe.
We check the full extent of the problem and advise on any follow-up work. We can also suggest ways to prevent it happening again, like a non-return valve.
The cost depends on how bad the flooding is and what work it needs. Pumping, jetting, and urgent repairs are all part of the quoted price. Request a fast, fixed-price quote online. We confirm costs before we start any major work, with no call-out fee.
We treat flooding as a top priority across Newcastle upon Tyne and nearby areas. Mark your request urgent when you submit it, and we'll pass it on to a local engineer straight away. Contact us as soon as you can, since acting early limits the damage to your home.
If it's safe, move valuables away from the water and switch off power at the consumer unit if water is near sockets. Never wade through floodwater, since it may carry sewage. If a manhole cover is the source, don't lift it, and wait for our engineers.
