Gully 790023913

Reported via mobile in the Gully/Drainage category anonymously at 19:08, Sun 7 April 2024

Sent to Cheshire East Council less than a minute later. Council ref: 5820435.

This is the fourth report I have sent with regards to my property being flooded. I acknowledge that you have attended in February following my third report and found the drain to be blocked. But there is no plan in your response to unblock the drain. My drive continues to be flooded when heavy rain occurs. Once again today I had a continuous stream running down my drive. The photos included with my report were taken 2/3 hours following a lull in the downpour. There is no point in my cleaning my drive as the flood on my drive is a reoccurring problem due to a blocked drain. It is now growing moss and weeds rapidly and the blocked paving is turning grey where the water stream flows over it. The weather is beyond your control but gully’s and drains are not! Please please empty the drain before my drive turns into a silt bed. Please do not tell me I have to wait until the next triennial inspection as it is only going to get worse.
