Stormwater & Roof Drainage
Repairs and maintenance for stormwater drainage and roof run-off.
Wilkinson Plumbing & Gas Fitters provides practical solutions for stormwater drainage across the Fleurieu Peninsula and Southern Adelaide. If stormwater is causing pooling, overflow or drainage issues, we can help ensure rainwater run-off is captured and directed appropriately to protect your property, especially ahead of heavy rain.
Stormwater relates to rainwater run-off (not sewer wastewater).
Stormwater problems we can help with
- Blocked or overflowing stormwater drains
- Downpipe blockages and drainage issues at the base
- Stormwater pits filling up or overflowing
- Water pooling near walls, paths or driveways
- Poor fall or ground conditions causing pooling and run-off issues
- Damaged or collapsed stormwater pipework
- Repeat stormwater blockages after rainfall
Stormwater repairs and drainage solutions
We diagnose the cause of the issue and recommend the most practical fix — from clearing blockages to repairing stormwater pipework and improving run-off direction.
Services we provide:
- Clearing stormwater blockages
- Downpipe drainage issues at ground level (connections and flow)
- Stormwater pit inspections and maintenance
- Repairing or replacing damaged stormwater pipe sections
- Advice on drainage improvements to reduce pooling and overflow
Our Process
Step 1
Explain the issue
Tell us what’s happening (overflow, pooling, pits backing up). We’ll assess urgency and book you in.
Step 2
Inspect and clear/repair
We’ll locate the issue and clear the blockage or repair the stormwater line using the right equipment for the job.
Step 3
Help prevent it coming back
If we find a recurring cause (roots, damage, poor fall), we’ll explain the best options to reduce repeat problems.
Winter Maintenance Tips
Simple tips to help prevent stormwater issues
- Keep surface grates and pits clear of leaves and debris
- If water pools after rain, it may indicate a partial blockage or poor fall
- If downpipes overflow at ground level, book an inspection early
- Don’t ignore repeat pooling near the house — it can lead to damp issues over time
