Blocked drains and pipe relining
We put a camera down the drain, show you exactly what is causing it, and fix the cause instead of clearing it again in six months. Licensed, insured, and based right here in Seaham.
What people say after the job is done
Copied word for word from the Google Business Profile. Most of them talk about turning up on time, explaining the problem and leaving the place clean.
Newbury Plumbing is absolutely brilliant. A very easy booking procedure, and they arrived on time. Completed the job in a very good time frame and it was all done as asked and they left no mess or rubbish. Price was very reasonable and I would have no hesitation to strongly recommend this service to anyone who needs plumbing work done.
I had a great experience with Beau. He arrived promptly, was friendly and professional, and quickly diagnosed and fixed the problem. He explained everything clearly and was very thorough in his work. I would highly recommend using beau for any of your plumbing needs.
Beau is professional, timely and efficient. A great communicator who keeps in touch and turns up when he says he will. Always leaves the site clean and tidy. Highly recommended.
I can highly recommend Newbury Plumbing who have done 3 separate jobs for me. Always prompt, easy to deal with and great work ethic.

I highly recommend Beau. He was reliable and very easy to work with. Beau’s honesty and fair pricing further set him apart.
What Beau actually does
Drainage is the core of it. Everything else is the ordinary plumbing and gas work a household or a builder needs done properly the first time.
Blocked Drains & CCTV
We clear the blockage, then put a camera through to find out why it happened, because a drain that blocks once usually blocks again.
- High pressure jetting to clear the line
- CCTV camera inspection with footage you can see
- Locating the blockage so nobody digs up the wrong spot
- Root cutting through the affected section
Pipe Relining
A cracked drain gets sealed from the inside with a new liner, so the roots have nothing left to grow into and the yard stays where it is.
- No excavation through driveways, paths or established garden
- Seals the cracks and joints tree roots get in through
- Patch relining for a single damaged section
- Before and after camera footage of the repair

From your first call to a drain that stays clear
A clear, straightforward process, so you always know what happens next.
Tell us what it is doing
A quick call or an enquiry with what you are seeing. Gurgling, backing up, slow, or a smell. It usually narrows things down before anyone comes out.
Camera down the drain
We run the CCTV camera through and record it. You see the same footage we do, so the quote is based on the actual problem and not a guess.
The honest option
Sometimes it is a clean and a jet. Sometimes the pipe is cracked and relining is the only thing that stops it coming back. We tell you which, and why.
Done and left clean
The work gets finished properly and the site gets left tidy. That is most of what our reviews actually talk about.
Clearing a drain is not the same as fixing it
The camera goes down first
You watch the same footage we do, so the quote is based on the actual problem instead of a guess about it.
Our own relining gear
Beau owns the CCTV camera and the patch relining equipment outright, so the diagnosis and the repair happen with the same person.
Licensed and insured
Plumbing licence 455927C, fully insured, and a member of the Newcastle Master Builders.

Based in Seaham
Local to the Hunter rather than driving out from Newcastle, which is why a Seaham or Clarence Town job is usually same day or next.

Frequently asked questions
Do you offer free quotes?
Yes. Quotes are free and there is no obligation. For drain work we would usually want to get the camera down there first, because quoting a blocked drain without seeing inside the pipe is guesswork.
Are you licensed and insured?
Yes. Newbury Plumbing holds plumbing licence 455927C and is fully insured. Beau is also a member of the Newcastle Master Builders.
What areas do you cover?
We are based in Seaham and work across Maitland, East Maitland, Rutherford, Thornton, Morpeth, Lorn, Bolwarra, Largs, Beresfield, Raymond Terrace, Clarence Town, Paterson, Dungog, Karuah, Medowie, Cessnock and Kurri Kurri.
What are your hours, and do you do after hours work?
Normal hours are Monday to Friday, 7am to 3.30pm. We do attend outside those hours, and anything outside them is charged as an emergency call-out. Give us a call and we will tell you honestly whether it can wait until morning.
What is pipe relining, and why would I need it?
Relining puts a resin liner through your existing pipe and cures it in place, creating a new pipe inside the old one. It seals the cracks and joints that tree roots get in through. It is the alternative to digging up the drain, which usually means breaking a driveway, path or garden and paying to reinstate all of it.
My drain keeps blocking. Why does it come back?
Because clearing a drain and fixing a drain are different things. If tree roots have found a crack in the pipe, a machine will clear them out and the roots will grow straight back through the same crack. That is why we run a camera through and show you the footage, so you can decide whether it needs a clean or the pipe needs sealing.
Do you do emergency work?
We attend outside normal hours as an emergency call-out. Beau is one plumber with an apprentice rather than a 24 hour call centre, so ring and we will tell you straight away whether we can get to you.
Tell us what the drain is doing
A quick description is usually enough to narrow it down. Gurgling, backing up, slow, or a smell. Beau will call you back, run the camera through and show you the footage before anyone quotes.
