    Sink not emptying mystery!

    Neither goes into - not through- the wall. There are no visible outlets on the whole of the house or any others. Would seem everything goes down and into the ground. Also there are no drains in the roads round here!

    Hello, well with my son holding the spanner and me with the key and jug we managed to bleed off the two noisy rads but alas they were only quiet for a few hours.

    Gully Grid wont fit?

    My Buyers Surveyor wants two downpipes (surface water) to go past the Gully grids and further into the Drain. Question is how to get the gully grids to fit after? Should I buy plastic ones and cut them to fit round the pipe? Thanks

    Wrongly discharging downpipes?

    Wrongly discharging downpipes?

    Hello, On a survey recently conducted on my property (for my buyer), the Surveyor has put that the two downpipes are wrongly discharging? From the picture attached I can only say that this is how they both look/are, going into the drain. Can anyone tell me what he is on about please?
