Thank you, that's what I would have thought

It was a glazed pot gully I think you call it back inlet gully so the pipe went into the path and into the back of the gully. It had a heavy grate that lifted off.

I don't believe the council can take action after 4 years and you could purchase an indemnity policy for your buyers in the unlikely event that they do.

But if the pipe is full of debris it will be difficult to pull out

The home insurance did it and I'm not interfering with it. I just want to know if it's going to be a problem and if so I'll get them to come and put a shoe on it.

Hi, I've just had a rainwater gulley replaced and I've noticed that the downpipe doesn't go into a hole but just presses against the grate. I'm worried that leaves and other debris will be trapped at bottom of pipe and I won't be able to clear them. Does the photo look ok to you or should I be...

The drainage engineer was sent by my home insurance company

I recently had my toilet pipe relined as there was a crack where it enters the external wall. I'm in a bungalow so there is a gulley that the bath, washbasin and rainwater pipe go into and that pipe and the toilet pipe then go into the manhole. I was told the gulley didn't need checking with...

I was concerned about the possibility of sinkholes, I've always had a fear of them and I'm on clay.

It's the house especially the living room where most of the water seemed to drain to.

The plaster on the inside wall is cracked not the brickwork but the path is cracked where the plaster crack is. I'm sorry I don't know how to post photos either.

At the time of the leak a crack appeared in the kitchen wall from floor to ceiling and on the path outside

I had a really bad water leak under the floorboards last year and I have no idea how long the pipe had been leaking for but the concrete slab was saturated the entire ground floor. Since it's been repaired the house shakes when buses go past. Does anyone know if this will stop or is the...

I have a 2m high close boarded fence that is boarded in the outside of my land but it has blown down 4 times in 10 years snapping the posts off at ground level. If I board it so I have the good side facing me will that stop the wind? Thanks for any advice you can give me

Yes the insurance company replaced the pipe as it was my pipe but they took 5 months to do so and I now have collapsed plumbing, sunken paths and cracks in the internal plaster on the walls.

Hi everyone! I've been having lots of problems with plumbing, drainage and electrics since having my leaking water supply pipe replaced 2 years ago next month. I reported the leaking supply pipe to my insurance company in the March and the pipe continued to run under my property until August...

Yes there are two clay pipes going into the manhole, one from the gulley, bath and basin the other from the toilet then there's a square hole which I assume is to the soil stack to prevent gas coming into the building which makes no difference now if the pipes have broken! There is a leaking...

I don't know until the floor is taken up. The guy from the water company said he thinks the collar may have come off and the water has been leaking out.

The toilet pipe goes under the floor so it has to be joined where it attaches to the toilet.
