Between two phases of structural work, a series of showers and the outside drains clogged with leaves from the previous autumn created a torrent in the driveway that extended into the house… As a result, with the gutters saturated, the water seeped under the door of the former small dining room and into the hallway (future kitchen). When the workmen arrived, a 5cm pool was waiting for them. Our team on site sent us an alarming message about the progress of the site if the rain continues without managing the gutters.
