Stormwater drainage for redeveloped blocks

Why Glen Waverley Homes Need Drain Specialists
Glen Waverley is one of Melbourne’s most popular family suburbs, and its housing reflects decades of growth. The original 1960s-70s brick homes sit alongside extensive redevelopment, with older homes being replaced by larger houses and townhouse complexes.
The drainage across Glen Waverley is reaching a critical age. Pipes from the 1960s-70s are 50-60 years old. Early PVC and terracotta both deteriorate at this age, with joint failures and hairline cracks becoming common.
Glen Waverley has some of the biggest street trees in Melbourne’s east. Mature oaks, elms, and native gums line the streets and their root systems extend well into private property. Root intrusion into sewer lines is the most common problem we see here.
The Kingsway shopping precinct and surrounding streets have seen dense development. More dwellings, more hard surfaces, more load on stormwater and sewer systems that weren’t built for the current population density.
South East Water manages the sewerage network in Glen Waverley 3150. They handle the street-side mains. Your drains from the boundary trap to your house are your responsibility.
