Bad drainage doesn’t stay a lawn problem. Left alone, water works its way under the house, into foundations and walls, and washes soil and mulch out of the garden every time it rains.
That’s why we find the actual cause before we quote anything. Then we design a fix that suits your block, install it properly, and back it with our Lifetime Labour Warranty.
We stand behind our workmanship for life, not just a few months.
We diagnose, design, install and repair, so you’re not chasing a landscaper and a plumber to sort one problem.
We can reline a cracked or root-damaged stormwater pipe from the inside instead of excavating your yard.
We get the legal point of discharge and the approvals right, so it doesn’t have to be redone.
Upfront pricing agreed before we start, with no surprise fees.

A stormwater drainage plumber designs, installs, repairs and maintains the system that carries rainwater away from your property. That’s the pipes, pits, grates, soakwells and surface drains moving water from your roof, yard and paving to a legal point of discharge. Unlike a surface-only fix, a licensed plumber can find the real cause and make the drainage compliant.
Stormwater is separate from your sewer. It carries clean rainwater off your property, usually to the street kerb or an approved drain, and it’s designed for the roof area and paved surfaces it has to handle. When it’s undersized, damaged or was never installed properly, the water has nowhere to go and it ends up in your yard or under your house.
Most drainage problems show themselves during or just after heavy rain. Call us if you notice any of these:
If it’s a one-off blockage rather than a drainage problem, we’ll tell you that and just clear it. You don’t need a new drainage system to fix a drain full of leaves, and we’d rather sort it and be honest about it. Have a look at our blocked drains service if that sounds more like your issue.
The cost of stormwater drainage depends on the size of the job. A single surface drain or one new pit is a modest job. A full drainage redesign, a soakwell system, or excavating and replacing a collapsed line costs more. A no-dig reline is often cheaper than digging out a long run of pipe.
At All Needs Plumbing you always get an upfront, fixed price approved before we start. There are no surprises on your final bill.
We handle stormwater end to end across Sydney:

New or altered stormwater drainage usually has to meet council requirements, including a legal point of discharge. That’s the approved place your stormwater is allowed to go: the street kerb, an inter-allotment drainage easement, or an on-site system like a soakwell. Which one applies depends on your block and how it sits.
In most cases you’re responsible for the stormwater pipes on your own property, right up to the point where they connect to the council’s system or your approved discharge point. The council looks after the street drainage from there.
We work out the compliant solution for your property and handle the drainage side properly, so you’re not left with work that has to be pulled up and redone.
Drainage problems only get more expensive the longer they’re left, because the water keeps working on your soil, your paving and your foundations.

A Grays Point homeowner called us because every decent rain was washing the ground away down the side of his property. There was nowhere for the surface water to go, so it was running across the block and taking the soil with it.
We installed a strip drain and a pit down that side, piped the full run and connected it into the existing downpipes, so the roof water and the surface water both had somewhere to go. Then we backfilled the trench along the side of the house.
We came back to finish the backfill in the back yard, cleared out the leftover bricks and debris, and hosed the whole area down before we left. A drainage job isn’t finished when the pipe’s in the ground. It’s finished when the yard looks like we were never there.

“What can I say about the wonderful Kurt that turned up at our home at Hurstville Grove and fixed a blocked kitchen sink. He was kind,professional and knowledgeable. He answered my questions (some were stupid I have no idea about blocked drains).Kurt did his work outside in the pouring rain. What a legend. Thank you Kurt.”
– Vicki S.
“Highly recommend! Josh showed up on time, sorted my leaking rainwater tank pump and unblocked the drain. Fair price, friendly service, very polite – definitely a top‑notch plumber I’d call again.”
– Marek M.
“Kurt was very professional and gave sound advice in sorting out our blocked drain. Great communication throughout the job and left the bathroom clean and tidy. Highly recommended.”

We provide stormwater drainage all across Sydney’s South and Inner West, plus the Illawarra. Whether you’re based in St George, the Sutherland Shire or the Inner West, we’re here to sort out your drainage.
We design, install, repair and maintain the system that carries rainwater away from your property. That covers the pipes, pits, grates, soakwells and surface drains that move water from your roof and yard to a legal point of discharge. As licensed plumbers we find the actual cause of a drainage problem rather than treating the symptom.
Usually because the drainage is undersized, blocked, damaged, laid at the wrong fall, or there’s simply nowhere for the water to go. We inspect the site, camera the lines where we need to, and tell you which one it is before quoting anything.
You’re generally responsible for the stormwater pipes on your own property, up to the point where they connect to the council’s system or your approved discharge point. The council looks after the street drainage beyond that. If you’re not sure where the boundary sits on your block, we can work it out when we come and quote.
New or altered stormwater drainage usually has to meet council requirements, including a legal point of discharge. Requirements vary between councils, so we check what applies to your property and make sure the drainage side is done compliantly the first time.
Often, yes. Where a line is cracked or damaged by tree roots, pipe relining repairs it from the inside with little or no excavation. It’s faster and far tidier than digging the pipe out, and it usually costs less on a long run.
It depends on the size of the job. A single surface drain or pit is modest, while a full redesign or replacing a collapsed line costs more. You’ll always get an upfront, fixed price to approve before we start, plus free call-outs from 7:00am to 4:00pm, Monday to Friday, $50 off your first service and a 10% seniors’ discount.
Yes. If it’s a blockage rather than a drainage design problem, we’ll clear it and camera the line to check there’s no damage behind it. See our blocked drains service. You don’t need new drainage to fix a drain full of leaves, and we’ll tell you if that’s all it is.
