Drains in Newham: what our engineers see
Newham has deep roots in London's sewer history. Bazalgette's Abbey Mills pumping station stands beside the Channelsea River near Stratford, and the Northern Outfall Sewer still crosses the borough to the treatment works at Beckton. Homes connect to that network through drains of very different ages, from Victorian clay pipes in Forest Gate, East Ham and Manor Park to modern plastic in new developments.
The older terraces in the north and east of the borough are densely packed, often converted into flats and extended at the back, with drains shared between neighbours. Further south, Canning Town, Custom House and Plaistow mix post-war estates with regeneration schemes, and Stratford and the Royal Docks have thousands of new flats in tall blocks. Shared stacks there block quickly when wet wipes, nappies and grease are flushed or poured away.
Newham is bounded by the River Lea and Bow Creek to the west and the Thames to the south, and much of it is low-lying former marsh and dockland, so heavy rain can put local drains under pressure. Green Street, East Ham High Street and Stratford are also packed with restaurants, sweet centres and takeaways, making fat, oil and grease a major cause of commercial blockages.

Newham drainage FAQs
Do you cover all of Newham, including Beckton and the Royal Docks?
Yes. We cover the whole London Borough of Newham: Stratford, Maryland, Forest Gate, Manor Park, East Ham, Upton Park, West Ham, Plaistow, Canning Town, Custom House, the Royal Docks, Silvertown, Beckton and North Woolwich. We work for households, landlords, letting agents, managing agents and commercial premises.
Who is responsible for a blocked drain in my Newham terrace?
If the blockage is in a pipe that serves only your home and lies within your boundary, it is usually your responsibility. Where the drain is shared with neighbours or runs beyond your boundary, it has generally been Thames Water's since October 2011. Tenants should usually contact their landlord and check the tenancy agreement. We can pinpoint the blockage with a camera.
Can you clear grease from a restaurant drain on Green Street?
Yes. We clear commercial kitchen drains anywhere in Newham using high-pressure water jetting, which strips fat, oil and grease from pipe walls rather than just pushing through it. We can work early in the morning or late at night to avoid disrupting service, and a CCTV survey can help you plan regular cleaning.
What should I do if sewage is coming up in my Stratford flat?
Stop using toilets, sinks and showers, keep everyone away from the affected area and call us on 0800 470 0946. We are open 24/7, including bank holidays, and will send an engineer as quickly as possible. If the blockage is in a shared stack, let your managing agent know too, as it may be affecting other flats.
