Customer seems to think the propblem might be with drains at the property on the hill near her property. The drains are blocked and there is a risk of water getting into the customer's property/garage. PCustomer would appreciate if this can be looked into as matter urgency.

This weeks flooding and overflowing gullies are largely the result of extreme weather and the drainage systems all exceeding capacity, rather the drains themselves being blocked. If your road is flooded, please call the emergency hotline number.
We will continue to monitor the area in a more moderate amount of rainfall and assess at that stage if drains are blocked and if remedial works are required.Many thanks,
