Blocked Drains in Shotley Gate

Heavy rain across Essex can quickly overwhelm a blocked gully or an undersized drain run, leaving standing water outside a property in Shotley Gate until the blockage is cleared. Shared drains between neighbouring properties are another common source of disputes and confusion, since a blockage on one property can back up into another further along the same run. We untangle these situations for homes and businesses in Shotley Gate, as well as New Mistley and Shotley, with a clear explanation of where the problem sits and whose drain it affects.
