Why do your stormwater drains get flooded?

The most common cause of stormwater drain flooding is blockages. Leaves, debris, sediment, and tree root intrusions build up over time and restrict water flow, which becomes a serious problem when heavy rain hits. In older properties, deteriorating pipes and collapsed sections can also cause flooding and water pooling around your home.

Your Local Tradesman uses advanced equipment, including high-pressure hydro jetting and CCTV drain inspection, to accurately locate blockages and assess the condition of your stormwater system. 

You can count on us to resolve even the most stubborn blockages, and all our stormwater drain repair services comply with Australian Standards and council regulations.

Our process for clearing your stormwater drains

We have a simple, yet effective process for clearing your blocked stormwater drains that we've perfected over the years:

  1. CCTV inspection: We insert a drain camera to locate the blockage and assess the pipe condition
  2. High-pressure jetting: We clear the blockage and flush the pipe clean
  3. Assessment: We identify any damage, root intrusion, or structural issues
  4. Repair or reline: We repair or reline the affected section where it’s needed
  5. Final check: We confirm the drain is flowing correctly before we leave

Why it’s important to clean your stormwater drains

Stormwater drains that aren't regularly maintained are more likely to block during heavy rain, which can lead to:

  • Flooding around your home or business
  • Erosion and damage to foundations and landscaping
  • Water pooling that attracts mosquitoes and creates health risks
  • Overflowing drains that back up into your property

Regular cleaning and maintenance keep your system running efficiently and help avoid expensive emergency repairs down the track.

Some of our frequently asked questions

Heavy rain has a way of exposing stormwater drain problems fast. After 15 years of clearing and repairing stormwater drains across Adelaide, these are the questions our plumbers get asked most.


What are the signs that my stormwater drain needs repair?

Signs that your stormwater drain may need repair include water pooling around your property, slow drainage after rainfall, unpleasant odours, gurgling noises from drains or visible cracks or damage in the drainage pipes

What causes stormwater drains to become blocked or damaged?

Stormwater drains can become blocked or damaged due to a variety of reasons, including the buildup of leaves, debris, and sediment, tree root intrusion, collapsed or cracked pipes, and improper installation. Heavy rainfall and flooding can also strain stormwater systems, leading to blockages or damage.

Can I prevent my stormwater drain from getting blocked or damaged?

Yes, regular maintenance can help prevent blockages and damage to your stormwater drain. Clearing gutters and downpipes of leaves and debris, installing gutter guards, and ensuring proper landscaping away from drainage areas can reduce the risk. It’s also important to have your stormwater system inspected regularly, especially after heavy storms.

What should I do if my stormwater drain is blocked during heavy rainfall?

If your stormwater drain is blocked during heavy rainfall, it’s important to act quickly to prevent flooding. Clear any visible debris from the drain and downpipes, and if possible, direct the water away from your property. Contact our professional plumbers to clear the blockage.

How do I know if my stormwater system is compliant with local regulations?

Ensuring that your stormwater system is compliant with local regulations is important to prevent flooding and environmental damage. Our team can inspect your stormwater system and make any necessary repairs or upgrades to ensure it meets current standards. We can also provide advice on best practices for stormwater management.

I had a serious tap breakage that caused my apartment to flood with water. I even called SA Water, but they were delayed. Then we had this amazing guy, Phil, who came out, quickly found the cause, turned off the water supply—which was on the roof—and repaired the tap. I just want to give Phil a huge compliment. He was absolutely amazing and a real lifesaver! He went above and beyond to help us during a very stressful situation. Truly appreciate his help and professionalism. Thank you, Phil!

We had power outage on the wet, cold & stormy Wednesday this week. After several attempts to get a reliable emergency electrician out asap I found the Local Tradesman site. They arrived early evening & quickly identified the problem. After further quote they proceeded to replace the full circuit board with safety switches. Impressive effort considering outside work in trying conditions. Great job! Thanks Jordan & Alfredo. Very pleased with the result.
Response from the owner:Thank you, Trevor, for taking the time to leave a review. We appreciate your feedback and look forward to serving you again!
