Drainage emergencies in London require an immediate response. Sewage backing up into your home, flooding from blocked drains, or a complete drain failure — our emergency team responds to all these situations 24/7 across Greater London, typically within 60-90 minutes. As a result, the vast majority of incidents are contained and resolved before they cause any structural water damage.
Call 020 3900 0030. Our 24/7 London dispatch team takes your details and sends the nearest available emergency engineer immediately. You'll receive a call when they're 15-20 minutes away.
On arrival typically within 60-90 minutes, the engineer assesses the situation — flooding extent, blockage location, whether Thames Water involvement is needed — and plans the fastest effective response.
We contain any ongoing flooding where possible, removing standing water if needed, and isolate the drainage failure to prevent further ingress.
We clear the blockage or drain failure by the fastest effective method — high-pressure jetting, rodding, or emergency patch repair as appropriate.
Once the emergency is resolved, we provide a written summary and, if further repairs are needed, schedule them at a time that suits you.
We dispatch the nearest available emergency engineer immediately on your call.

We also advise whether Thames Water needs to be contacted about any public sewer involvement.
Local tip: If sewage is backing up into your London home, stop using all water immediately — every flush sends more sewage into the already-blocked system. Call us on 020 3900 0030. While waiting, open windows for ventilation and lay towels to contain any overflow.
