The damaged section, photo below, has been cut out and patched with a section of new culvert pipe, completed with a bead of cement around the edges of the repair.

Contractors have started on the repair of the damaged section of culvert pipe at No 19, funded by the householder’s insurance company.

The workmen expect it to take 2 – 3 days to complete the work, which includes replacing the pipe section, encasing the repair in concrete and filling in the hole.

Fingers crossed the heavy rain stays away for the next few days!
