A leak in the street

A leak in the street: but Jake came out and sorted within the hour. Probably a simple job for him: but prevented a lot of water loss. Thank you for the speedy response

Alix came out to check on the issue today and was thorough in his explanation of the issue, I was able to show him a picture of said issue and he explained that this looks to be a drain problem for the council - however he advised that as he works in the area he will keep an eye on it after bad weather to double check next time.

Professional, smart and knowledgeable, ref 14397924
