Keep site water movement visible and manageable
Storm water systems and drainage are a practical concern when runoff from roofs, paved areas or other parts of a site is not moving as expected. Pooling water, slow drainage and water backing up around pits or inspection points can affect access, work areas and day-to-day operations. A clear description of what is happening helps a plumbing business understand the issue and the site conditions before work is considered.
For commercial and industrial properties, the task may involve pipework, pits, tanks, drains and disposal pathways. The right approach depends on the existing assets, the affected area, access arrangements and the potential disruption to the site. It may involve a new installation, repairs and maintenance, an interceptor, or a rainwater harvesting system.
Stormwater work for operating sites
Commercial and industrial plumbing often needs to account for asset criticality, site safety and operational continuity. Unlike a straightforward small-property job, work may need to fit around occupied areas, loading access, permitted working hours, inductions or planned shutdown windows.
On industrial sites, it is particularly useful to identify any process impacts, isolation requirements, environmental controls and site-specific safety controls that may apply. Where relevant, customers can also flag confined-space, working-at-heights, permit or SWMS/JSA requirements early. This gives the plumbing business a better starting point for discussing access and planning.
Services that may suit different stormwater needs
Storm water systems and drainage services can be relevant at different stages of an asset’s life: when planning new works, responding to an issue, or maintaining existing equipment. The available service pathways include:
- Installation: for new stormwater systems and drainage components.
- Repairs and maintenance: for existing stormwater assets that need attention or an ongoing maintenance approach.
- Interceptor installation: for sites considering an interceptor as part of their stormwater arrangements.
- Interceptor repairs and maintenance: for existing interceptors requiring repair or maintenance work.
- Rainwater harvesting installation: for projects incorporating rainwater harvesting.
- Rainwater harvesting repairs and maintenance: for existing rainwater harvesting assets.
Not every plumbing business will offer every type of work. Find a Master Plumber can be used to choose a plumbing business for the service required.
Useful details to have ready
Good site information can reduce uncertainty during an initial enquiry. Start with the property address, a contact person and clear access instructions. Explain the urgency, any safety concerns, whether the area is occupied and what effect the issue is having on the site.
Asset and location information
- Asset ID, plant location or a site reference for the affected equipment.
- Drawings, manuals, previous service reports and maintenance history where available.
- Photos or short videos showing the issue, surrounding area and labels on existing equipment.
- The location of pits, drains and inspection openings that may be relevant.
Access and operational information
- Site induction requirements, parking or loading details, and permitted working hours.
- The person authorised to approve work.
- Any shutdown window, access restriction or isolation requirement.
- Relevant permits, safety controls and environmental controls for the work area.
Where the site has particular liquids, cleaning chemicals or materials that could enter drainage, describe them clearly. This context can matter when the plumbing business considers the stormwater system, wider site operations and environmental controls.
When drainage concerns need a clearer conversation
Slow or blocked drainage, visible pooling, water around pits, and water backing up are useful observations to report. They identify the symptoms without assuming the cause. Include when the issue was first noticed, whether it is recurring, which areas are affected and whether it occurs during particular site activities or conditions.
For a larger or operationally sensitive property, it is also worth identifying what cannot be interrupted. That may include vehicle access, occupied work areas, a production process or another critical activity. Clear information supports better coordination between the customer and the plumbing business.
Products and supply names customers may encounter
Stormwater projects can involve a range of products and supply channels. Examples customers may encounter include Reece, Galvins, Tradelink, Iplex, Vinidex, Everhard, Reln, ACO, Humes and Polymaster. These names are associated with brands, products and supply channels relevant to this service area.
The appropriate product or component depends on the site, existing assets and the work being considered. Discuss the proposed scope and site information with the plumbing business rather than assuming that a particular name is suitable for every project.

Find a Master Plumber connects customers with Master Plumbers and plumbing businesses associated with the Master Plumbers and Gasfitters Association of Western Australia. It is backed by the Association, which has represented Western Australia’s plumbing and gasfitting industry since 1901.
Choosing a Master Plumber helps consumers make a more informed choice of plumbing business for their property or project. For commercial and industrial stormwater work, use the initial conversation to establish whether the business is suited to the required installation, repair, maintenance, interceptor or rainwater harvesting service and to explain the site’s access and continuity requirements.

- Roof Plumbing for roof-related work, including box gutters and roofing leaks.
- Grey Water Systems for installation, repairs and maintenance of grey water systems.
Frequently asked questions
What work can storm water systems and drainage services involve?
The available service pathways include installation, repairs and maintenance, interceptor installation and maintenance, and rainwater harvesting installation and maintenance. Site assets may include pipework, pits, tanks, drains and disposal pathways.
What information should I provide when reporting a stormwater issue?
Provide the site address, contact details, access instructions, urgency and safety concerns. It is also useful to share photos or videos, asset information, the location of pits or inspection openings, available drawings and maintenance records.
Why do access requirements matter for commercial stormwater work?
Commercial and industrial sites can have occupied areas, inductions, parking and loading restrictions, permitted working hours, shutdown windows and other controls. Raising these early helps the plumbing business understand the operating environment.
Can I seek help with a rainwater harvesting system?
Yes. Rainwater harvesting installation, along with repairs and maintenance of existing rainwater harvesting systems, is included in this service area.
What should I mention if water is backing up?
Describe which fixtures or areas are affected, whether the issue is internal or external, the location of relevant pits or inspection openings, and whether the backup appears to involve sewage or stormwater.
