Drain unblocking in Newry typically costs £80 to £200 for a standard blockage. More stubborn blockages requiring high-pressure jetting may cost £150 to £300. If a CCTV survey is needed to locate the problem, expect an additional £100 to £250.

When temperatures in Newry drop below freezing, water inside your pipes expands as it turns to ice. This expansion creates enormous pressure — enough to split copper and plastic pipes. The burst often only becomes apparent when the ice thaws and water starts flowing through the crack. Insulating exposed pipes in lofts, garages and exterior walls is the best prevention.

Insulate all exposed pipes in your loft, garage and exterior walls with foam lagging — available for under £10 from any DIY shop. Keep your heating on a low background temperature (at least 12°C) even when you are out, and open loft hatches occasionally to let warm air circulate. If you are leaving the property empty in winter, consider draining the system or asking a neighbour to check daily.

Your internal stopcock is typically located under the kitchen sink, in a downstairs cupboard, or near the front door where the mains pipe enters your property. Turn it clockwise to shut off the water. If you cannot find or turn it, use the external stop valve in the pavement outside your property — you may need a stopcock key to operate it.
