Prevent flood damage before the rain hits.
Stormwater drain systems are vital for the flood protection of your space. When heavy rain arrives, your storm drains must absorb the excess water — and a blockage puts your property at risk. Our Melbourne team has kept countless homes and offices secure from stormwater.

Why are stormwater repairs so urgent?
Blocked stormwater drains can unleash a range of issues for your property — and costly repairs down the line. Here's why you shouldn't leave one blocked:
Keeps gardens healthy
Working drains ensure water doesn't drown plants or wash away soil.
Avoids pest presence
Clearing blockages stops water from standing still and attracting pests.
Protects your yard
Proper drainage helps prevent the ground from washing away around your home.
No flood presence
A clear system prevents anyone being exposed to the health risks of flood water.
Who is responsible for stormwater runoff?
If a stormwater block happens on private property, in most cases it's the responsibility of the property owner — with some exceptions such as land owned by the local council.
Blockages occurring in public spaces — roads, parks and the wider stormwater network — are generally the responsibility of your local water authority and council.

Stormwater repair FAQs
Common stormwater repair questions from Melbourne property owners.
What is the difference between drainage and stormwater?
In short, drainage redirects whatever flows from your property, while stormwater drains draw rain and surface moisture away from it. Both systems protect the wellbeing and safety of your space.
How long does a typical stormwater repair take?
Repair times vary based on the extent of the problem. In most cases, repairs are done within a few hours after we diagnose the issue.
How do I know if my stormwater system needs repair or just maintenance?
Signs your system might need repair include ongoing clogs, water backup, cracks and strange noises. Regular maintenance can often prevent these issues from escalating.
Are your repair methods disruptive to my property or business operations?
We aim to minimise any disruption. Depending on the extent of the damage, we offer non-invasive approaches like pipe relining, which repairs the pipe without any digging.
