The pipe sticking up out of the ground should be clear of soil and debris. If it has just been pushed in to the ground, it is a bodge that needs fixing. If the weather is good over the weekend, get the spade out and start digging.

Ok, that’s great. Thanks for the reply.

P.s don't hijack other people's threads , it's bad manners , the other posters who replied to you should of told you this

Did consider that but thought it may be of some relevance or help.

Judging by the middle photo, there is a hint of a DPC in line with the concrete drive. The grass appears to be hiding it the rest of the way. Time to get digging and install a french drain and check the levels around the rest of the house.

No it's just confusing to the op whether the answers people give are for their problem or yours , this is why it's bad manners to hijack someone else's thread , you should always start your own

you are trying to get out of debt yet you are taking the word of a company that wants to relieve you of a monkey, leave it your house isn't gonna sink, you could put a 90° bend on the bottom to direct it away from your brickwork

Yes, I can see this has happened. Apologies to the OP.

Thanks for the replies. I didn't want to spend money, when i'm in debt but that's why I came for a bit of advice. I live on my own and isolating due to covid, so it's good to get access to people with the relevant knowledge. So I appreciate peoples comments. Thanks
