Drainage emergencies don't respect the clock, and neither do we. Our Poole emergency response teams are on call around the clock, ready to tackle overflowing drains, sewage backups, and flooding anywhere in the town — from Broadstone family homes to Old Town businesses and harbour-side apartments.
Our 24/7 emergency line is always staffed. Describe the situation — flooding, sewage backup, or collapse — and we prioritise dispatch to your Poole address.
The nearest available emergency engineer heads to your property typically within 30-45 minutes, equipped with pumping, jetting, and containment gear to handle any scenario.
On arrival, we secure the affected area, isolate the drainage failure if possible, and begin removing standing water or sewage to limit property damage.
We diagnose the root cause and implement the fastest effective repair — clearing blockages, patching failures, or arranging follow-up work for structural damage.
Once the immediate emergency is resolved, we provide a written summary and, if further repairs are needed, schedule them at a time that suits you.
Call our emergency line and we will dispatch the nearest available Poole engineer to your location. They will assess the situation, implement containment measures where needed, and work to resolve the emergency quickly and safely.
Local tip: Know the location of your external manholes and stopcock before an emergency arises. This allows our engineers to begin work the moment they arrive, saving valuable time.
Our emergency teams are positioned across Poole and the surrounding Dorset area and reach Poole typically within 30-45 minutes. We operate around the clock — 24 hours a day, 7 days a week, including bank holidays — so help is available whenever you need it.
Situations requiring an emergency response include sewage backing up into your property, flooding from blocked or collapsed drains, overflowing manholes, and any drainage failure presenting a health risk. If in doubt, call us and we will advise whether an emergency visit is needed.
We offer competitive fixed pricing for emergency callouts in Poole with no hidden charges. While emergency work may cost more than routine maintenance due to the urgency and equipment required, we always confirm the price before starting.
