你好,

我们有一个三卧室的维多利亚式别墅(1900年代)，在房子后面的杂物间里有一个沟渠。据我们了解，这里是所有浴室/厨房脏水和雨水的去处。没有盖子或盖子来掩盖它，所以它非常暴露。看着这个方孔是一个小铸铁网格覆盖(约30厘米下)，再往下一点似乎是一些水流过。“廉价”的杂物间很快就建成了，在这个排水沟上建了一面外墙。因此，我们不断地看到鼻涕虫、蜘蛛和木虱爬进爬出。有时我们也会遇到小老鼠!由于没有盖上，我们用塑料布把洞盖上，塑料布剪得很合适，然后用胶布把洞封起来，这样就可以暂时把洞封起来，防止不速之客从外面进来。排水沟和雨水仍然从外面流入这个排水沟。当下雨的时候，鸭子胶带真的不能保持太久，我们必须每年重新密封一次! In December 2013, this gully drain was flooded and luckily, it did not go inside the utility room as it was made a little bit higher inside which means in the event of the flood, the waste water just pours out into the rear garden. Welsh Water Officers came round and helped us out with the overspilling and explained that these drains were built like this and it was very common in older times. I asked them if I could have it moved a little bit out and they said just hire a contractor. It seems that moving the gully drain hole is not the Welsh Water Authority's responsibility.

有什么办法能让我们在不花太多钱的情况下解决这个问题吗?我们正在考虑把这个沟渠移到外面大约8英寸，创造一个分流的水流，然后用塑料盖盖住，以防止树叶进入并堵塞它。

问候,
