When Stormwater Stops Moving

Stormwater is the system that carries rain off your roof and yard and into the street network, and when it blocks, the water has nowhere to go but your lawn. Our plumbers clear it, repair it and get it flowing again.

Creeks, Culverts and Low Blocks

Four creeks cross this suburb: Burpengary, Sideling, Saltwater and Little Burpengary, and council mapping lays flood hazard bands along each one.

  1. Low blocks carry the storm load

    Properties set down near those creek lines are first to see water pool, because the overland flow paths council has charted across parts of the estates run through them.

  2. Culverts and pits fill fast

    The gully pits and relief points serving the newer estates take roof and driveway runoff from whole streets, and one storm cell can bury them in silt and leaf litter.

  3. Rain comes in bursts

    Redcliffe holds the nearest published rain record: 1170 millimetres a year on average, with the storm months delivering nearly all of it, so a system that copes in winter can still drown in February.

What We Clear and Repair

Our stormwater work covers the whole run from the roof gutter to the street connection:

  1. Pit and Gully Clears

    Our plumbers rod and flush blocked stormwater pits and gully traps, strip out the silt and debris that settles in them, and confirm water leaves the block at full flow.

  2. Downpipe and Ground Drains

    We clear the ground drains that carry roof water from the downpipes to the pits, because a choked one sends rain back against the slab or pooling over paths and gardens.

  3. Yard and Culvert Lines

    Longer yard drains on the bigger blocks get cleared end to end, and culverts under driveways and crossings are checked for silt bars and root growth that quietly halve their capacity.

  4. Repairs and New Connections

    Broken stormwater pipe, a collapsed pit or a downpipe discharging against the house gets repaired or re-run, with the price approved in writing before any of the work begins.

Common Stormwater Problems

  1. Water Pooling at the Pit

    Silt, mulch and leaves wash into the lowest pit and choke it, so rain backs up on the surface. Our plumbers empty the pit and clear the line, and the yard drains again.

  2. Gully Overflowing in a Storm

    When the network downstream is loaded, a gully sitting low on a creek-side block can surcharge, and water pushes up through the grate. We clear the line and check the fall.

  3. Soggy Lawn After Rain

    A leaking or crushed stormwater pipe under the lawn keeps one patch wet long after the sky clears. We trace the run, expose the break and replace the damaged section.

  4. Driveway Runoff Going Nowhere

    A choked crossing or culvert under the driveway sends stormwater back toward the garage instead of the street. We clear it and restore the fall so the water travels.

Where the Storm Load Lands

  1. Around the Valley estates

    The streets feeding toward Narangba Valley Shopping Centre on Central Green Drive carry dense roof and paved surfaces, so their pits take runoff from tightly packed housing in one hit.

  2. Near the parkland

    Blocks around Norfolk Lakes Park off MacDonald Drive sit close to mapped drainage lines and recreation ground, so a blocked pit there shows up as water sitting on paths and lawns.

  3. On the acreage fringe

    Longer pipe runs out toward the rural-residential fringe mean more ground for one storm to load, so a partly choked line out there has further to back up before it surges.

Why Fast Clearing Matters

Stormwater that cannot get away does damage quietly, and most of it is avoidable with an early clearing visit.

  1. It protects the slab and footings

    Water pooling against the house edge on the shale and alluvial soils here soaks in and keeps the ground around the slab wet for days, and reactive soil responds to that.

  2. It stops the mess reaching indoors

    A gully surcharging next to a doorway or a low-set garage sends water where it should never go, and clearing the line early keeps the storm outside.

  3. It finds the small faults early

    A visit to clear one blocked pit often turns up a crushed pipe or a missing grate before the next storm turns that small fault into a flood.

Stormwater Clearing Steps

  1. 1

    Ring and describe it

    Call (07) 3523 6428 and walk us through what's going on in Narangba. A couple of quick questions help us bring the right parts the first time.

  2. 2

  3. 3

    Clear, trace and test

    Our plumbers open the pit, clear the blocked line back toward the street, check the fall and look for breaks, then run a hose test to prove water leaves the block cleanly.

  4. 4

    Pay when it's done

    Card or EFTPOS on site once the job's finished, or ask about Fix now, pay later.

Stormwater Questions We Answer

Call (07) 3523 6428

Who owns the stormwater pipes on my Narangba block?

You do, because Unitywater's network stops at the boundary, and every stormwater pit, pipe and gully on your side of that line is yours to look after and repair when it blocks.

Do Narangba summer storms overload the stormwater pits?

They can, because the nearest published Redcliffe gauge records a long-term average of 1170 millimetres, and the storm season drops most of it on the estate pits in short, heavy bursts.

Can a low block near Saltwater Creek surcharge in a storm?

It can, since council flood mapping carries high and medium risk bands along all four local creeks, and any gully sitting low along one of those creek lines holds water back until the downstream pits clear.

Why does my gully trap fill with water after heavy rain?

Usually a choked downstream pipe or a pit full of silt and leaves, because the runoff from your roof and driveway has to get through that line to reach the street network before the trap drains.

Can stormwater back up into my sewer line in Narangba?

It can where a low gully trap sits near the creeks, because surcharging stormwater pools at the lowest opening, and our plumbers check for cross-connections while clearing the blocked line.
