Effective stormwater management is critical on the Far North Coast, where heavy rainfall and subtropical storms can cause significant property damage. East Point Plumbing designs and installs stormwater drainage systems that protect your property and comply with local council requirements.

Our stormwater services include:

  • Stormwater drainage design and installation
  • Downpipe connection and extension
  • Stormwater pit installation and repair
  • Ag drain (agricultural drain) systems
  • Subsoil drainage for waterlogged areas
  • Retention and detention systems
  • Rainwater tank connections

Our approach:

We start with a site assessment to understand your property's drainage patterns, soil type, and fall. We then design a system that moves water away from your home efficiently, complying with Byron Shire Council stormwater requirements.

Common Questions

Frequently Asked

Why is my yard flooding after rain?

Common causes include blocked stormwater pits, disconnected downpipes, inadequate drainage capacity, or changes to neighbouring properties that redirect water onto yours.

Do I need council approval for stormwater work?

Minor repairs typically don't require approval. New installations or significant modifications usually need to comply with Byron Shire Council's stormwater management plan. We handle the compliance requirements for you.

Can you connect my rainwater tank to the house?

Yes — we install rainwater tank plumbing including pump systems, mains water switching valves, and connections to toilets, laundry, and garden taps.
