Why Brisbane properties need specialist stormwater drainage
Brisbane sits on river floodplains and has many low lying catchments, intense summer storms can overload poorly designed or blocked drainage, causing water to enter homes and gardens.
Refer to local flood maps and Council guidance when planning drainage upgrades, see the information on the Brisbane City Council Website

- Water pooling near foundations or in sunken living areas (water coming in house)
