Available 24/7, 365 days a year - with no additional fees for callouts on evenings, weekends or bank holidays
Plumbers 365 is a national drainage and plumbing company with engineers working across the country, including Basildon. We handle everything from a slow-draining kitchen sink to a collapsed sewer, and we do it around the clock — there is no separate out-of-hours company and no answering service between you and an engineer.
Our teams are fully insured and DBS-checked, and the vans carry jetting equipment, drainage cameras and repair kit as standard, so most jobs are finished on the first visit rather than booked in for a second. We are members of the NADC and the FSB, and our work is backed by our own guarantee.
Whatever the problem in Basildon, you will get a fixed price before we start and no call-out charge. Call 0800 755 5566 and we will tell you honestly how quickly we can be with you.
Our Basildon engineers cover the full town and the surrounding area, with vans positioned so that most callouts are reached inside a 60 to 90 minute window. We work around the clock, including weekends and bank holidays, and there is no call-out charge whatever time you ring.
If you are just outside the areas listed below, call us anyway on 0800 755 5566. We will tell you honestly how long we would be rather than quoting a time we cannot keep.

Water in Basildon comes from Essex and Suffolk Water and is classed as very hard on their published figures.
Kitchen fat is the usual culprit. Where the supply leaves scale behind, the pipe narrows and that fat sticks all the more readily.
A large share of Basildon’s older streets are postwar new town, served by clay drainage laid more than a hundred years ago.
Durable as it is, clay is brittle. Ground movement opens joints, roots follow the moisture in, and what looks like a recurring blockage is often a broken pipe.
Our engineer will look at the problem before giving you a price, normally beginning with a camera inspection so nothing is left to guesswork.
Rodding or high-pressure jetting resolves most blockages on the day. If the problem turns out to be a broken drain, we will show you the footage and quote for the repair before proceeding.
We do not charge a call-out fee, so you pay only for the work carried out.
Our engineer will quote a fixed price once they have seen the problem, and that is what you pay. There are no additions afterwards for time of day, parking or congestion.
How much it costs depends entirely on the fault. A basic unblock is not the same as a dig and replace, but you will always have the price first.
