📍 Comprehensive Drainage Solutions – Brisbane Northside and the Sunshine Coast
We assess landscape drainage issues from three core perspectives:
- Overland Water Flow: Using site profiling and shaping (swales, spoon drains, or riverbeds) to direct water away from structures.
- Surface Water Management: Using stormwater pits and channel drains via kerb connections to remove runoff effectively.
- Subsurface Drainage: Including Agg drains or Capiphon™ to manage ground saturation and protect foundations.
Each solution is customised to your property’s specific drainage requirements.
Site Profiling for Landscape Drainage
Site profiling for landscape drainage is utilising site profiling and shaping to direct overland flow. Site profiling for drainage may include swales, spoon drains and riverbeds. Landscape profiling is the most effective measure of managing larger volumes of stormwater or overland flow.
Stormwater Pits & Channel Drains
These systems manage surface runoff from stormwater and are critical in moderate to high rainfall areas like Brisbane. Landscape profiling should direct stormwater or overland flow towards channel drains or stormwater pits. These pits then redirect the stormwater via underground pvc stormwater pipes to a suitable discharge point.
Note: In heavy rain, it’s crucial these systems operate independently of your home’s stormwater connection to avoid overflow or backups.
Slotted Aggregate Drain (Agg Drains / French Drains)
Ideal for sodden lawns or behind retaining walls, Agg drainage collects and disperses underground water, reducing pressure and preventing saturation.
Capiphon™ Drainage Systems – Advanced Brisbane Drainage
Capiphon™ systems use capillary and syphonic action to remove 3–4x more water than traditional methods. A flexible, long-lasting PVC-based material, it’s perfect for managing sub surface moisture in challenging Brisbane soils.
