Does Water Pool Around the House After Rain?
If water is pooling against the house, parts of the yard never dry out, or the downpipes and pits overflow every time it rains heavily, your stormwater isn't carrying the water away.
Water sitting against the house soaks in next to the footings, and on a sloping block or against a slab, that is the last place you want it.

We'll Get the Water Away From Your House
We find out where the water is going now, checking the downpipes and running a camera through the existing line to see where it is blocked, broken or was never connected.
From there we lay new stormwater line, install pits where they're needed, and connect it into the legal point of discharge.
We also install stormwater detention tanks where a property needs them, across Melbourne's eastern suburbs. Contact us today for a free quote.

Frequently Asked Questions
Usually because roof water is not being carried away. Either the downpipe discharges onto the ground, or the stormwater line it feeds is blocked, undersized or has no fall. We follow the path from the gutter to the discharge point to find which it is.
It is the point the authority requires your stormwater to be connected to, usually at the street or an easement. Stormwater has to end up there rather than simply being run to a low spot on the property. We will confirm what applies at your address.
Only some properties do, and it depends on the requirements that apply to the site, usually when hard surfaces are being added. It is not something we would add unless it is required or the site genuinely needs it. We will tell you either way.
Yes, and it is one of the more worthwhile jobs on an older property. Downpipes discharging onto the ground beside the house is a slow, expensive problem, and connecting them properly is straightforward work.
There is trenching involved, so yes to a degree. We keep the runs as direct as the levels allow and reinstate the ground afterwards. Where the route has to cross paving or concrete, that will be in the quote up front.
