Blocked gullies, Blocked downpipes, mainly are caused due to soil washing into gully, or moss collecting in gutters and washing down into downpipes and gully. Regular
gutter cleaning, will help prevent blocked downpipes, prevent blocked gutters and help against blocked gullies. Install gully grids to prevent large items falling in like a tennis ball removed from a gully clearance in Southborough
Gutters, We are continuously removing added items installed to gutters. Covers may prevent large moss entering, however the soil still enters and grass grows through cover and blocking gutter. Brushes catch leaves etc so do not enter gutters, in some cases like a property in heathfield, brushes cause a build up of leaves backing up on roof.
Downpipes cones are often the cause of blockages, moss collects around top causing gutters to block. Drains and gutters believe all downpipes should enter a gully, which is easily maintained before entering underground to a drain. The second most common cause of blockages is screwing joints together, as the screw enters downpipe causing large debris to catch and block
