Last autumn / winter we experienced flooding in our garden. After speaking with neighbours I found out this has happened before. This was resolved previously by the clearance of local soakaway drains. The issue has been continually getting worse each year until this year the water was so high our shed flooded ruining numerous personal items. The soakaway drains are supposed to be cleaned annually, however, have not been cleaned for many years. Please arrange for them to be cleaned before autumn sets in.
