Horizontal drain pipe cut flush with foundation
Hi. I've noticed that my patio trench drainage does not drain water. It turned out that when someone made some repairs, they allowed concrete to enter through the grates and blocked the outlet, leaving just a small hole. Also, there was a pvc pipe inserted into the outlet (and not glued which works in my favor) so dirt was collecting at the pipes edge. Unfortunately the outlet pipe is cut flush with the foundation edge. Is there an easy way of repairing it? Or would I need to chisel out the concrete around the pipe? submitted by /u/magnumpl [link] [comments]
