Gully Repairs & Drainage Gully Traps In Shrewsbury
Whatever The Type Of Surface Water Fitting At Your Home, We Can Repair It.
Drainage gully traps play an important role in the overall drainage system. Gullies are small basins that are placed in the ground that collect wastewater from across your property before it enters the main sewer network. Gully repairs are important in running an efficient drainage system.
Drain gullies can become blocked by debris, such as soil or leaves, fat deposits from the kitchen, or potentially by freezing water in winter. This can lead to leaks, odours or even a backup of wastewater into your property.
Regular drainage gully trap repair & maintenance
Regular drain gully maintenance ensures that your drains are clear of debris and that any potential issues are addressed before an emergency callout is needed. We advise that drains and gullies are checked before a wet season to ensure smooth water flow into the sewer system.

Gully repairs: types of drainage gullies & traps
Drainage gullies come in various shapes and sizes:
Yard gully
Also known as a Bottle Gully, a Compact Gully or a Universal Gully. ‘Access Gully’, if they permit rods to be inserted into the drain. Most gullies of this type are trapped, often by means of a baffle plate that is removable in some models.
P-trap and hopper
This is a simple arrangement more commonly used with rainwater pick-ups (downspouts) than for draining large areas of paving.
Rest bend and hopper
This set-up is not trapped and is therefore only suitable for connection to a surface water system, not to a foul or combined system.
A direct connection
Again, this uses a rest bend with an adaptor coupling used to connect the downspout directly to the sub-surface system.
