A drainage specialist?  Yep. We have a particular knack for directing
sewage and stormwater runoff and are
quite proud to admit it.

We see it as a game of scrabble, you have board, variable connections and everything must join and make sense to win. It keeps the mind engaged, that’s for sure!

Not following?  Well, we came across the YourHome website, Australia’s guide to environmentally sustainable homes, and they have a handy page that gets into the basics of Stormwater and why it is so important.  Here is a little excerpt:

In urban areas stormwater is generated by rain runoff from roofs, roads, driveways, footpaths and other impervious or hard surfaces. In Australia the stormwater system is separate from the sewer system. Unlike sewage, stormwater is generally not treated before being discharged to waterways and the sea.

Poorly managed stormwater can cause problems on and off site through erosion and the transportation of nutrients, chemical pollutants, litter and sediments to waterways. Well-managed stormwater can replace imported water for uses where high quality water is not required, such as garden watering.

A homeowner can take simple steps to manage stormwater and reduce its environmental impact.

Fascinating stuff huh?  Well, we think so.  But seriously, drainage is a big factor to consider and you have come to the right place to get it sorted.  Here is our list of the drainage services Kingfish Plumbing provides:
