Gullies
Ramadan Drain CleaningGully unclogging in Dasma
Gully unclogging in Dasma is frequent in residential apartment blocks where multiple units face each other. Each flat has one or more gullies, and water from all units passes through shared yard gullies. Silt accumulates under the grating quickly and blocks the line.
Gully signs
When the gully isthe problem.
A gully problem stays local, and these signs separate it from a blockage inside the house.
01
Water stands over the grating
You wash the yard or rain falls, and the water pools over the grating instead of dropping through. Inside the house everything drains as usual, because the gully is a run of its own.
02
Sand and silt under the bars
Lift the grating and look. A layer of sand, silt and paper means the pot has filled above the outlet, and nothing can move until the pot itself is emptied.
03
The smell is outside, not inside
A smell coming from the yard side rather than a bathroom usually means the standing water in the pot has evaporated in the heat, leaving the outlet open to the air.
This area
What setsthis area apart
Dasma is an urban residential area near the city centre with mid-rise apartment blocks and gullies in shared yards and at each entrance. Water from flats flows through outdoor gullies before reaching the main sewer line. Tight yards mean we work carefully not to disturb other residents, and these gullies handle drainage from kitchens and bathrooms of multiple units at once. If one blocks, water backs up into several flats.
Dasma sits in Kuwait governorate, an urban residential area near the city centre.
Gullies in Dasma shared yards drain bathroom and kitchen water from eight or more flats simultaneously.

How it works
Clearing a gully,pot and all.
Four steps, all from above, with nothing broken open.
We lift the grating out
The grating comes out of its frame with a hook, and we take off the paper and leaves sitting on it first, so none of it drops into the pot while we work.
We empty the pot to the base
We take out the standing water, then lift the sand and silt with a bucket and a scraper until the base shows and the outlet mouth in the side wall is visible.
We clear the outlet run
The outlet leaves the side of the pot above the water line. A rod goes in there and turns clockwise until it runs, because the branch beyond it usually holds the same deposit.
We refill the seal and test
We refill the pot with clean water so the seal is back, then pour a bucket over the grating and watch it drop away before the grating goes back in.
Common questions
Questions about Gully unclogging in Dasma
Yes, if the gully in the shared yard blocks, water from every flat connected to it backs up and will not drain. Water may come up through indoor drains or bathroom floors. We have to clear the outdoor gully quickly to restore service to all residents.
We lift each grating in turn and check if water is pooling in it. If one gully has stagnant water and the other drains normally, that one is blocked. We use short rods to pull silt from the bottom.
