What Counts as a Drainage Emergency?
A drainage emergency is any situation where a drainage problem poses an immediate risk to health, safety, or property. This includes sewage backing up into your home or business, a complete blockage that prevents any water from draining, a collapsed drain that is causing subsidence or structural damage, or a burst drain that is flooding your property.
What to Do in a Drainage Emergency
If you are experiencing a drainage emergency, the first step is to stop using any water in the affected area to prevent the situation from worsening. If sewage is backing up into your property, avoid contact with the contaminated water and keep children and pets away from the affected area. Then contact a drainage specialist as quickly as possible.

FAQ
Frequently Asked Questions
How quickly can an emergency drainage specialist attend?
Response times vary depending on location and availability, but experienced local specialists aim to attend emergency call-outs as quickly as possible, often within a few hours.
Is emergency drainage more expensive?
Emergency call-outs outside normal working hours may attract a higher rate. However, the cost of not acting quickly in a drainage emergency can be far greater in terms of property damage and remediation costs.
Who is responsible for a blocked drain?
Responsibility for a blocked drain depends on its location. Drains within the boundary of your property are generally your responsibility. Shared drains and public sewers are the responsibility of the local water company, Northumbrian Water.
