Roseville Blocked Stormwater, Done Properly

Stormwater is rainwater off the roof and yard, entirely separate from anything a toilet or sink sends down.

Pit and grate clearing. Leaves, bark and silt cleared from surface pits before they push further into the line.

Ag line and downpipe clearing. Underground ag lines and connected downpipes jetted clear of silt and root growth.

Root intrusion removal. Roots cut back and the line cleared where tree growth has pushed into the pipe.

Overflow and surcharge fixes. Tracing why a pit is overflowing and clearing the actual cause, not just the symptom on the surface.

Camera confirmation. A run through on camera once it's clear, so you can see the line is actually flowing.

Where a box gutter on the roof itself is overflowing, that's a roofing job rather than a drain one, and we'll be upfront about pointing you the right way.

Roseville sits on a ridge that falls away toward Middle Harbour and Lane Cove, and that slope matters more than most homeowners realise.

Stormwater lines on a falling block need the right grade to move water fast enough, and where that fall is wrong, water sits, drops its silt, and the pit clogs.

Blocks near Bancroft Avenue sit on some of the steeper runs in the suburb, and a pipe with the wrong fall there can surcharge in a downpour that a flatter street handles without issue.

Add the leaf litter off the surrounding bushland and national park edge, and pits on these steeper runs work harder every storm season than most.

1. Locate and assess. We find the blocked section and check whether it's debris, roots or a fall problem.

2. Written quote. One number, confirmed before the jetter goes anywhere near the line.

3. Jetting and clearing. The jetter scours the pipe wall clean, taking the leaf build-up, silt and roots with it.

4. Camera check and warranty. We confirm it's flowing properly and back the work with our lifetime labour warranty.

One blocked pit is typically sorted inside an hour. Clearing the whole property after a heavy storm takes more time, especially with several pits playing up together.

Stormwater work sits under the same NSW licensing rules as any other drainage job, restricted to a properly licensed tradesperson.

Private stormwater pipes on your property are yours to maintain, while the council or public infrastructure it eventually connects to is a separate system entirely.

Roof gutters and box gutters sit with roof plumbing rather than drain clearing, and we'll point you the right way if that's the actual issue.

We clear stormwater drains across Roseville and out through Lindfield, Killara, Chatswood and Forestville, wherever the leafy canopy and sloped blocks cause the same problem.

Not sure if it's stormwater or sewer backing up? Our CCTV drain inspection settles it on camera before anyone starts digging.
