Got a question that only a tradesperson can answer? We have thousands of trades ready to answer any question you may have.
Ask your QuestionIs it possible to connect the guttering runaway to the house’s sewer system? And is this still legal to have this changed?
Currently we have a soakaway area with a hole that this gutter leads to, but this is getting blocked up regularly now.
This is an old house which has a combined sewer system which has another set of gutters which do connect to the sewer system.
"Hello
Yes, you can do this – combined sewer systems are made for house drainage and rainwater.
If you have any other concerns, you can always seek advice from a local building control officer, who can inspect your property if need be.
For your soakaway hole blockage issue, you can try and dislodge any blockages with a spade, rod or pressure washer.
This may be a simpler solution than having your guttering rerouted and one that cost nothing to tryout first!
I hope this helps! "
