Emergency blocked drains

Keep clear of sewage and electrics near standing water; the visit traces whether the blockage is on a private drain or a shared / water-company sewer.

What this covers

Overflowing toilets, foul smells, slow sinks across the property or sewage in an inspection chamber.

Do this first

• Keep clear of sewage and electrics near standing water.
• Avoid pouring more water into a blocked fitting.
• Note whether upstairs and downstairs drains are affected and photograph any overflow if safe.
