Oh Yea!!. three yrs ago this coming Feb, caused by very heavy rain, the roads were flooded and water came up through the sewage drains at the back of the house. The water table at the best of times is only about one foot below ground level. Anglian Water didn’t want to know, and it took me 16 hrs,the next day, just to clear one sewage pipe, to drain the whole of the back garden, however, damage to the inside of the house was limited to the kitchen, and no, my Insurance wouldn’t pay out, as we live in the “Flat lands” which are below Sea level anyway.
