Gully Cleaning & Silt Removal for Lewes (BN7) properties

Older homes in Lewes were plumbed with salt-glazed clay in short sections with mortar joints — the classic entry point for roots. Newer estates use continuous UPVC, which blocks less from roots and more from wipes, fat and misuse. We factor that into every gully cleaning & silt removal job we take in BN7.

Most common drainage problems in Lewes

  • Displaced joints and misalignment caused by ground movement
  • Root ingress at clay pipe joints on tree-lined streets around Lewes
  • Shared drainage disputes between neighbouring or converted properties
  • Surface water flooding where downpipes discharge into foul drains
  • Silted and overflowing gullies after heavy rain in BN7
