Blocked Gullies
Gullies are the grates at ground level that take rainwater and waste from sinks and downpipes, and the trap beneath them is a natural collecting point for grit, leaves, fat and debris. When one blocks, water pools, overflows and can quickly track towards your foundations or doorway. We attend urgently, clear the gully trap by hand and with jetting, and check the run beyond it so the problem does not simply return. In wet weather this is exactly the kind of job that should not wait.

Common questions
Still not sure? Ask us anything — we're happy to help.
Usually the trap or the pipe beyond it is partly silted up, so it cannot cope with volume. Jetting clears it, and a CCTV check confirms whether anything more is needed.
If left, overflowing water can track towards foundations and walls and cause damp. That is why we treat blocked gullies as an urgent, same-day job.
A simple gully guard keeps leaves and debris out, and we will point out anything draining into it, such as a kitchen waste pipe, that needs managing.
