We have a problem with overflowing surface water drain inlets on our concrete patio - due to a lack of built up "lips"
Is it possible to buy pre-cast concrete surrounds to mortar in myself ?
They need to be about 6 inches square.

Lips around the Gully Inlets should not be necessary. The surface water drain should accommodate the volume of flow without overflowing. Does the drainage discharge to a sewer or soakaway or ditch.?You scullion! You rampallian! You fustilarian! I’ll tickle your catastrophe (Henry IV part 2)0
