FAQ
Everything You Need To Know
Why is water pooling in my yard?
Pooling water is often caused by poor site drainage, compacted soil, or a lack of proper fall in the landscape. Without a clear path to move water away, rain collects in low spots. Installing surface drains, channel grates or underground piping can help redirect water and prevent damage to gardens, lawns and structures.
How does stormwater drainage differ from sewer drainage?
Stormwater drainage carries rainwater from roofs, driveways and outdoor areas into pits, pipes and council systems. Sewer drainage, on the other hand, removes wastewater from bathrooms, kitchens and laundries. It’s important to keep the two systems separate, as improper connections can lead to overflow, contamination and legal issues.
Do I need council approval for new drainage?
In many areas, yes—especially for larger stormwater systems that connect to council infrastructure or affect neighbouring properties. Approvals help ensure systems meet local regulations and don’t cause runoff or erosion elsewhere. A licensed plumber can guide you through the process and handle any required documentation or compliance checks.
