Contributing Factors

Even with consistent drainage maintenance, various factors can still lead to blockages within the system:

Heavy Rainfall: Sudden and intense downpours can overwhelm drainage systems, causing water to back up and leading to blockages.

Accumulated Mud and Leaves: Over time, mud, leaves, and other natural debris can build up in the system, obstructing the flow of water and creating blockages that impede proper drainage.

Damaged Covers: Cracked or broken drain covers can allow larger debris to enter the system, contributing to reduce the effectiveness of the drainage system.

Tree Root Intrusion: Tree roots can infiltrate pipes, causing significant obstructions as they grow and spread within the drainage network, leading to persistent blockages and potential damage.
