Plumbers 365 — your drainage experts in Burton-upon-Trent

Plumbers 365 is a national drainage and plumbing company with engineers working across the country, including Burton-upon-Trent. 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 Burton-upon-Trent, 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.

Drain overflowing right now? Do this while we are on our way

  1. Stop using water. No flushing, taps, washing machine or dishwasher. Every litre adds to a system that cannot cope.
  2. Keep clear of standing sewage. It carries harmful bacteria. Keep children and pets away from the area.
  3. Do not lift manhole covers. Trapped gases and the risk of falling make this genuinely dangerous. Our engineers carry the equipment to do it safely.
  4. Move what you can. If the overflow is indoors and it is safe to do so, lift rugs, furniture and anything electrical clear of the water.
  5. Call us on 0800 755 5566. The sooner we are on the road, the less damage there is to put right.

Why drains block in Burton-upon-Trent

The water supplied to Burton-upon-Trent by South Staffs Water is hard.

Most slow drains trace back to fat and food waste. Where the water leaves scale, that narrowing brings the blockage forward by years.

Burton-upon-Trent’s housing is heavily Victorian brewery terraces, with clay drain runs that have been underground for more than a hundred years.

Being brittle, clay cracks as the ground moves around it. Tree roots take advantage, and what presents as a stubborn blockage is frequently a collapsed section.

How we clear a blocked drain in Burton-upon-Trent

We inspect first and quote second. A camera survey is normally the starting point, so the diagnosis is based on evidence.

Most problems are solved by rodding or jetting during that visit. If the camera finds damage, we will explain what it means, show you the footage, and quote before any repair begins.

What it costs in Burton-upon-Trent

No call-out charge. Ever.

You are charged for the work, not for the visit. There is no call-out fee.

You will know the exact cost before the engineer begins, and no extras are added once the job is done.

How much you pay depends on the problem. A routine unblock costs a fraction of a structural repair, and you will know which one you are facing beforehand.

Blocked drain in Burton-upon-Trent? We are on call now. No call-out fee, fixed prices, and an engineer who can be with you in 60 to 90 minutes. Call 0800 755 5566.

A typical surface water job in Stapenhill and Horninglow, Burton-upon-Trent

After heavy rain we get calls from Stapenhill and Horninglow about gullies overflowing and water standing where it should be draining away.Around the River Trent the survey often shows a combination of silt build-up and a run that simply cannot take the volume once the ground is saturated.We jet and vacuum the run clear, lift and clean the gullies, and check the soakaway or connection is doing its job.Drainage copes again by the time we leave. Where the problem is capacity rather than blockage we say so plainly, because more jetting will not fix it.

Frequently Asked Questions

Emergencies are usually attended inside 60 to 90 minutes, at any time. Call 0800 755 5566 for an honest answer on timing.

We do not bill for turning up, regardless of the hour. What the job costs is agreed with you in advance.

A CCTV survey identifies it. We will explain the fault, show you the footage, and give a separate quote for the repair, which you are under no pressure to accept.

Yes. Our engineers hold DBS checks and full insurance, and carry appropriate safety gear for confined spaces and traffic management.

Yes. We serve landlords, letting agents, hospitality venues and facilities managers alongside homeowners, and can arrange scheduled maintenance.

The boundary is the usual dividing line. Your side is yours, the far side is Severn Trent's, and anything in the carriageway is Staffordshire County Council's. Our engineer will establish it on site.

Burton-upon-Trent is supplied with hard water. Where a supply is harder, limescale narrows waste pipes over time; where softer, grease and wipes are the whole story. Older Victorian brewery terraces drainage suffers in both cases.
