Common Stormwater Problems

Is Your Property Struggling With Stormwater Drainage?

Stormwater drainage problems rarely announce themselves until the next heavy downpour, when water that should flow safely to the legal point of discharge instead pools across your yard, driveway or under your home. Root ingress, silt build-up and ageing pipework are common culprits behind a blocked stormwater drain, and in older Gaven properties, undersized or poorly graded charged lines can surge and leak under pressure.

Left unresolved, these issues can undermine footings, erode garden beds, and create standing water that attracts mosquitoes and unpleasant odours. Some homeowners only discover an illegal stormwater-to-sewer cross connection during a pre-purchase plumbing inspection, which can trigger council compliance issues if it isn't corrected.

If your stormwater pit is bubbling, your downpipes aren't connecting properly to the underground system, or your yard stays soggy long after the rain has stopped, it's worth having a licensed stormwater plumber take a look before the next storm season arrives.

      FAQ

      Stormwater Drainage FAQs

      Stormwater drainage can be confusing, especially when it comes to figuring out what's your responsibility and what falls to council. Below, our licensed plumbers answer some of the questions we're asked most often by Gaven homeowners and business owners.

      Stormwater drainage carries rainwater runoff from roofs, driveways and paved areas away from your property to a legal discharge point, such as a kerb, channel or council stormwater main. Sewer drainage, on the other hand, carries wastewater from toilets, sinks and other fixtures to the sewer network. The two systems are meant to remain completely separate, and mixing them up, whether through an incorrect connection or ageing pipework, can lead to overflows, unpleasant odours and council compliance issues.
      Generally speaking, property owners are responsible for the stormwater drainage system within their own boundaries, including pipes, pits and connections that carry water to the legal point of discharge. Council typically manages the public stormwater network beyond your property line, such as kerb and channel systems or council-owned drains. If you're ever unsure where your responsibility ends, a licensed stormwater plumber can help clarify what's happening on your property.
      Leaves, silt, dirt and general debris are the most common causes of a blocked stormwater drain, particularly after a run of wet weather washes material into pits and grates. Tree roots can also find their way into ageing or cracked pipework, gradually restricting flow until the line blocks completely. In some cases, a collapsed or poorly graded section of pipe is to blame, which usually only becomes obvious once water starts backing up during heavy rain.
      In many cases, yes. Where the surrounding pipework is structurally sound, trenchless relining can restore a cracked or root-affected stormwater line without excavating your driveway, garden or paving. A CCTV inspection is usually the first step, as it allows our plumbers to assess the extent of the damage and confirm whether relining is a suitable option or whether a section needs to be excavated and replaced.
      Persistent yard flooding usually points to an underlying issue with your stormwater system, whether that's an undersized pipe, a blocked line, or drainage that wasn't installed to properly direct water to a legal discharge point. Rather than waiting for the problem to resolve itself, it's worth having a licensed stormwater plumber inspect the property to identify exactly where water is pooling and why, so a long-term solution can be put in place.
      Signs that your stormwater system may need an upgrade include recurring flooding after rain, water pooling in the same spots time and again, pits that overflow during storms, or a system that was never properly connected to a legal point of discharge. Older Gaven properties in particular can outgrow the drainage capacity they were originally built with, especially as paving and extensions reduce the amount of ground available to absorb runoff naturally.
