Flooded Drains & Manholes for Tankerton (CT5) properties

Clay-with-flints subsoil holds water on the surface long after rain has stopped, which pushes surface water into foul drains that were never designed to take it. That matters for flooded drains & manholes in Tankerton, because the right fix depends entirely on what the ground is doing to the pipe.

Most common drainage problems in Tankerton

  • Silted and overflowing gullies after heavy rain in CT5
