How Often Should You Clean a Gully Pit?

A residential gully pit connected to a kitchen and bathroom will need attention more often than one serving light-use outbuildings.

As a general guide, most homes benefit from a check and clean every few months, while restaurants, hotels and commercial kitchens usually need a more frequent schedule.

Water pooling around the pit cover, slow drainage from nearby fixtures, and odours rising from the pit are the clearest signs that it's time for a clean.

For busy properties, a scheduled gully cleaning plan avoids surprise blockages. Call us to work out a frequency that suits your property.
