    Expert Drain Blockage Removal Services

    Blocked stormwater drains can lead to severe issues. Our drain service includes thorough drain blockage removal, ensuring your drains are cleaned and cleared efficiently. Stormwater drains are specifically designed to manage rainfall, but they can often become clogged or blocked due to the build-up of leaves and debris carried into the drains by roof or groundwater. When these drains become blocked, the potential for overflow arises, making drain clearing and cleaning a priority.

    Addressing this issue is crucial, and that’s where the expertise of The Clean Plumber comes into play with our comprehensive drain services.

    For all stormwater drain-related enquiries or to set up a regular maintenance plan, give us a call today and speak to our highly skilled office staff.

    Stormwater Drains FAQ's

    What is Stormwater Drainage?

    Stormwater is rainwater that picks up soil, debris and pollutants as it runs off roads, roofs and other surfaces. This untreated water flows through stormwater drains into our lakes, rivers, and oceans. Blocked stormwater drains are common, especially during storms.

    How does stormwater drainage work?

    Stormwater drainage systems channel rainwater from roofs and downpipes into discharge drains that lead to water bodies. Proper maintenance is essential to prevent soil erosion and water pollution.

    How do I manage stormwater runoff?

    To manage stormwater runoff, property owners should maintain their drains, downpipes, gutters, rubble pits, and discharge points regularly. This upkeep prevents blockages and ensures effective stormwater management.

    What is the difference between sewer and stormwater drainage?

    Household drains from sinks, toilets, and showers connect to the sewage system, carrying wastewater to a treatment plant. In contrast, stormwater drains channel rainwater directly to nearby waterways without any treatment.

    Do you need help with your stormwater drains?

    For stormwater drain service or maintenance work in Sydney, contact our experts at 02 8859 0801 or fill out our online enquiry form.

    How can I tell if my stormwater drains are blocked?

    Signs of a blocked stormwater drain include slow drainage in your yard, pooling water after rainfall, or unpleasant odours coming from the drains. Visible debris or water backing up are also clear indicators that you may need drains cleared or drains cleaned promptly.

    What are the signs of overflow from stormwater drains?

    Overflow from stormwater drains often appears as water spilling over the edges of the drain, pooling in areas like your yard or driveway, and flooding in low-lying sections of your property. These signs need immediate attention to prevent damage, which may involve professional drain service or drain blockage removal.

    What are the long-term effects of neglecting stormwater drain maintenance?

    Neglecting stormwater drain maintenance can lead to severe blockages, causing flooding on your property. This can result in infrastructure damage, higher maintenance costs, and potential health risks from stagnant water. Regular upkeep is crucial to avoid these long-term problems.

    Can I perform maintenance on my stormwater drains myself?

    Yes, you can perform some maintenance on your stormwater drains. Keep them clear by limiting chemical use, removing garden debris, and inspecting them annually. Additionally, consider harvesting rainwater for reuse and maintaining plants to reduce runoff. Regularly check your roofs and gutters for leaks or damage. For more extensive maintenance or repairs, it’s best to consult a professional plumber.

    Yes, our team at The Clean Plumber offers emergency stormwater drain services for urgent situations. We can quickly address blockages and prevent further damage.

    I recently had the pleasure of having Tanaka from The Clean Plumber handle a plumbing issue at my home, and I couldn't be happier with the service. From start to finish, Tanaka was the epitome of professionalism. He arrived on time, which I greatly appreciated, and even wore shoe covers to ensure my home stayed spotless—such a thoughtful touch!Tanaka was incredibly polite and took the time to clearly explain the work that needed to be done, outlining all the options available with transparent and very reasonable pricing. This made it easy for me to make an informed decision without feeling pressured. His work was efficient, thorough, and left everything cleaner than when he arrived.Not only did he solve the plumbing issue flawlessly, but he was also genuinely pleasant to have around, making the whole experience stress-free. I will absolutely be using The Clean Plumber again, and I highly recommend Tanaka to anyone in need of a reliable, skilled, and courteous plumber.

    Recently called the clean plumber for an urgent plumbing issue. I have never called them before but after jayden arrived to my house and completed the work I’ll never call anyone else. Jayden was on time, had great communication, explained everything he was doing to me and how things work, his work was precise and to a high standard and left the work area spotless. I will definitely be asking for Jayden again next time I need a plumber.

    My in-laws were after a reliable plumber but didn’t know anyone reputable. I did a google search for them and took a few quotes. Although The Clean Plumber wasn’t the cheapest, their quote was still very reasonable and they were by far the most professional to deal with. Happy with the job and glad we took the plunge. Workmanship 5 stars, Service 5 stars and reliability 5 stars. Job well done!!
