Blocked Drains Pulborough: 24/7 Drain Unblocking

Pulborough runs along a sandstone ridge above the River Arun flood plain, and having high ground and low ground in the same village decides which drains give trouble. Below the ridge are the Pulborough Brooks and the Wild Brooks, a broad wetland that holds water for much of the year. When the Arun is high and the ground down there is already full, waste water on the lower plots has nowhere to go, and the smallest partial blockage tips a slow drain into a backed-up one.

Flooding is a normal part of the year here rather than an event. After heavy rain the surface water on the low ground sits instead of draining, and that standing water works its way into outside gullies and grids, silting them until they stop taking anything at all.

A lot of Pulborough properties are rural and sit on their own drainage away from the mains, where a blockage backs up quietly for weeks before anyone notices. In the older village core, homes share drains, so one household's problem turns into several households' problem.

• Blocked kitchen and bathroom sinks
• Blocked toilets
• Blocked outside gullies and drain grids
• Blocked shared and communal drains
• Blocked showers, baths and basins
• Slow-draining and backed-up wastes
