Not sure what the actual name for these things are.
I will call them 'thing' if unsure!
The 'thing' outside my house that all my water goes into.
Well I have my washer,sinks and bathwaste and also rain water from gutter going to it.
Well the water is constantly above the metal grid (is that the right word for that too?)
Then when bath,washer etc are emptied it is going up higher and over and is flowing onto my flagstones.
Not noticed this before as its been winter since moved in and ground has been either covered in rain or snow plus I didnt venture into the back garden either.
Thought it would be the obvious like a blockage of leaves etc above the metal grid.
Got the gloves on and used a garden trowel to poke about!
Did come across a fully grown dead frog-but that was not the problem!!!
After the initial fright I have got the frog out plus many frogspawn.
Must have thought it was a pond!
Took the metal grid off too and poked about deeper.
Looks like the blockage is further as there was nothing there.
I have a large triangular metal 'thing' further down the garden and I imagine that could be somewhere to check if water is flowing freely or not.
Any help with this please???
Plus I rent the house from friends.....if there is a problem that needs 'a man that can' then who is responsible to pay for it?!
