Sump hole surprise



Just as things were going so well...
The Dam (raised threshold is now in)
The sump hole needs to be 600 x 600 x 600
but a main Drain is in the way
now the hole can only be
500 long x 300 wide x 450 deep
by Monday a solution will appear
but will the weather be better or even worse?
