Do Your Gullies Look Like This? We've all seen it – waterlogged roads and flooded car parks turning what should be a smooth experience for staff and customers into a stressful paddling experience. Ever wondered why? It might just be time to give your gullies a closer look. Gullies in parking areas are often overlooked until it's too late. Accumulated debris, particularly at this time of year, can block drainage paths, turning your car park into a makeshift pond! Timely gully maintenance is the key to ensuring your car park remains dry and accessible, saving both you and your visitors from the hassle of wading through water! AND save you the expense of an emergency call out when the flooding happens. To find out how we can address your gullies before the spring rains arrive: 📧 [email protected] ☎ 01564 493 284 #gullymaintenance #drainagesolutions #infrastructurecare #preventfloods #teamrs #proactivemaintenance #roadsafety
