Yes you have been and cleared the drain, we won't know if the problem has been solved until we get another downpour. This drain was first reported 4 years ago when we was told it would mean a new drain It has never been replaced

As before you did clear the drain yes . We will not know if the problem has been solved until we have a downpour. 4 years ago you pro.ised a new larger drain but that never came to fruition.
