I am moving before the end of the year, and will probably move into a flat with a sunny balcony. I want to control the water run-off from the benches. Does anyone have any helpful ideas? My current benches are a mix of finds at the tip shop, metal garage benches and desk frames with mesh on top. I could buy a specific bench, if such a thing exists.
It could go like this; Shop at somewhere like Clark Rubber to find a thin, tough, clear plastic. Lay this onto the benches, snipping the corners, propping up the edges ought to produce a shallow simple basin. Then tilting the benches via raising their feet, so the water will run in one direction. Next snip a hole and pop a bucket underneath.
Does anyone else try to recycle water run-off from benches? Coming after several flood years in a row, I'm not currently motivated by environmental goals.
Does anyone else encounter problems with water sitting on balconies, downstairs neighbours complaining etc.?
Thanks in advance
