Hey guys I need some advice. There are three downpipes that travel under the ground and feed into the water tank. When it rains they spill and overflow from the top near the gutter. The whole side fills with water when it rains a lot so I know something needs to be done but $13,000?? I believe they quoted to clear out the downpipe closest to the tank so it can work and redirect the other two into the stormwater so that would mean digging a trench and laying pipe and connecting into the stormwater. They think it's all blocked up under the ground and that's why it's overflowing at the top.
Can I DIY this? My thoughts are that there might be some drains overthrown by grass down the side. If I find them could I direct the pipes into those drains? I've done some pipe work before so I'm pretty confident I can do it.
Any other ideas?
Thanks you.
