Stormwater-Smart Plumbing Near the River in Fairfield, Brisbane
A storm rolls in late on a summer afternoon, the gutters overflow within minutes, and water starts pooling against the back wall of the house instead of draining away. In Fairfield, blocked or undersized stormwater drains are a common cause of this kind of flooding, and the damage to foundations, garden beds and under-house storage can add up fast.
Fairfield is a riverside suburb with a mix of Queenslanders, post-war homes and newer townhouses. Parts of the suburb are low-lying, and streets near the river were among those hit in the 2011 and 2022 floods. Many homes have stormwater systems that are decades old, built for a different era of rainfall and often damaged by silt, roots or ground movement since. The reactive clay soils across the area swell and shrink with the seasons, which can crack and dislodge underground pipes. Leaves from mature trees regularly choke downpipes and pits, especially in autumn and before the wet season.
Fallon Solutions has plumbers who know Fairfield's drainage challenges well. Our stormwater and plumbing experts clear blocked pits and downpipes, inspect underground lines with CCTV cameras and repair or upgrade damaged stormwater systems so water heads to the kerb or legal point of discharge instead of your back door.
