Sewage Backup Fixes in Whickham
PK Plumbing — drain unblocking, jetting and CCTV surveys in Whickham and Gateshead and Blaydon. Local Gas Safe engineers, same-day when we can, fully insured.
Working in Whickham and nearby Gateshead and Blaydon, we see family homes and apartments and houses week in, week out. Mixed housing ages mean boiler sizing, drain method and access planning vary job by job. That local repetition helps on landlord repairs, certificates, and tidy work in finished rooms — we diagnose on site rather than guessing from a postcode. On sewage backup fixes jobs we rod, jet or camera the line first — repeat blockages in Whickham usually need proof, not another quick clear.
Recent drainage work in Whickham
Example 1
A homeowner booked Sewage Backup Fixes in Whickham after sewage smell in the pavement — shared drain responsibility was unclear.
The survey recorded offsets and material changes for the buyer — no drama, but evidence they could negotiate with — plus a clean bill on the section under the house.
Result: Shared-drain letters went to the right parties — no more argument about who paid for the shared length.
Example 2
We recently tackled Sewage Backup Fixes in Whickham where roots had cracked a clay lateral — slow drains after heavy rain were the giveaway.
Camera footage showed a displaced joint catching wipes; we cleared, quoted lining vs dig, and carried out a localised repair with minimal excavation.
Result: Drains ran freely on test; they were pleased we’d proved the cause instead of another “quick rod”.
Example 3
A café in Whickham needed Sewage Backup Fixes when the yard gully smelled constantly, even after a quick rod from elsewhere.
We cleared the line with high-pressure jetting using the correct nozzle, then ran CCTV to confirm the pipe was clean and structurally sound — a fatberg in the bend was the root cause.
Result: The buyer proceeded with eyes open — our report went straight to their solicitor without extra questions.
Smells and slow stacks often tie back to venting or partial blocks — we test logically. Regular sewage backup fixes work in Whickham and Gateshead, Blaydon, and Ryton means fewer “mystery” callbacks after the first visit.
Our approach
Shared drains mean boundaries — we help establish what’s yours to fix before work starts. That clarity matters for drain unblocking jobs across Whickham.

Blocked drain callouts
Fully blocked or slow draining? We clear kitchen lines, WCs and main runs with the right method — jetting, rods or mechanical — and we camera when it keeps coming back.
Drain unblocking
Slow bathroom wastes, gurgling stacks or a utility sink that won’t run off — we unblock properly and explain what caused it so you’re not stuck in a repeat cycle.
CCTV drain surveys
Buying, insuring or tired of repeat blockages? We camera the line and leave footage plus plain notes you can share — so you fix the cause, not just the symptom.
High-pressure drain jetting
Fatbergs, scale and soft root ingress often need proper jetting with the right nozzles — we match pressure to the pipe and clean up after, without wrecking fragile old clay.
