Pumps can’t cope in heavy rain
We have had Southern Water down loads of times and nothing makes any difference. The pumping station was never meant to handle the amount of homes it has to deal with now.
I have spoken to my MP and I am waiting for a reply. It seems the pumps aren’t big enough and when I suggested maybe a bigger pump was needed I was told that would only push the problem down the line.

Can anybody help sort out this problem or come up with a solution that will stop us worrying every time it rains?
