Plumbers 365 is a national drainage and plumbing company with engineers working across the country, including Dover. 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 Dover, 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.

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.

Our Dover 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.

The mains supply in Dover, run by Affinity Water, is classified hard.

Kitchen waste does most of the damage. Limescale, if the supply produces it, means less room for the waste to pass.

Older housing across Dover tends to be Victorian terraced, drained by clay pipework laid generations ago.

Clay copes badly with movement. Joints shift, cracks appear, roots exploit them, and a returning blockage is usually a damaged pipe rather than a dirty one.

The engineer will inspect the drainage first, generally with a camera, so the quote reflects what is really happening underground.

Rodding or jetting handles most blockages then and there. Where damage is found instead, we will show you the evidence and give you a separate price before continuing.

We charge for the work and nothing else, with no call-out fee attached.

A fixed price is agreed before any work starts, and it does not change. Overtime, parking and congestion charges are never added on.

Prices differ according to what we find. Rodding a blocked sink is not comparable to replacing a collapsed run, but either way the number comes before the work.

Blocked drain in Dover? 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.

Terraced streets around Buckland and Tower Hamlets often produce a call from two or three neighbours at once, all reporting slow drainage on the same afternoon.A shared run is the usual culprit, and the survey normally finds the blockage sitting past the point where the properties connect rather than under any one house.We jet the shared run clear and show each household where the fault actually sat, which saves a good deal of argument about who pays.All the properties drain normally again the same day, and because the blockage was in the shared section we explain who is responsible for it going forward.
