Stormwater Repair Questions
Have another question? Call 0448 984 771 – we’re happy to help.
Who is responsible for stormwater pipes on my property?
Responsibility depends on the pipe's location and your property's drainage arrangements. We'll help identify the affected section and advise whether you need to contact your local council or another responsible party.
Can a damaged stormwater pipe affect my home?
Yes. Persistent water pooling near your home can contribute to dampness, erosion and ground movement. Investigating drainage problems early can help prevent further damage.
Why does my downpipe overflow when it rains?
A blocked gutter, downpipe or underground drain may be restricting the flow. Damaged pipes or insufficient drainage capacity can also contribute. We'll identify the cause and explain whether clearing, repair or another solution is needed.
Should downpipes connect to the sewer?
Stormwater and sewer drainage should remain separate. An incorrect connection can contribute to sewer overflows during heavy rain. If you suspect a problem, we can inspect the connection and explain what needs correcting.
How can I reduce recurring stormwater problems?
Keep gutters and accessible drain grates clear of leaves and debris, and prevent soil or mulch from covering drainage pits. If blockages keep returning, arrange an inspection to check for underlying pipe damage or root intrusion.
