Gullies
Ramadan Drain CleaningGully unclogging in Mahboula
Gully unclogging in Mahboula typically starts with tenants reporting water pooling in communal yards. Mahboula is an older residential area on Beach Road, and its apartment blocks have multiple gullies in shared courtyards. The silt pot under each gully collects silt, leaves and gravel.
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
Mahboula apartment blocks are older and densely built, with gullies spread across front yards, back courtyards and side entrances. The shared space is tight, so we wait for tenants to move items around the gully before we start. The pot sits deep and stays wet, so we clean it with rod and tanker together. The line underneath may be old with a poor fall, so we work the rod carefully and check whether the pipe itself has a blockage.
Mahboula sits in Ahmadi governorate, an older residential neighbourhood on Beach Road where gullies drain multi-storey apartment blocks.
Mahboula gullies drain water from several blocks at once, so a single blockage affects multiple units 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 Mahboula
We tell the building management to ask tenants to move them before we arrive. We need to open the cover and reach below, so we cannot work with a car blocking the way.
Usually if one blocks, a second one nearby may share the same line. We open both and see where the silt sits thickest, then pull from there. Sometimes we clean both to ensure the whole drainage works.
