Stormwater Drainage Checklist for Adelaide Homes

12 January 2026MaintenanceBy Stormwater Plus Team

Seasonal checks prevent most drainage emergencies.

Use this quick checklist before and during winter:

  • Clear leaves and sediment from gutters and grates.
  • Confirm each downpipe discharges to a legal point.
  • Check for ponding around paths, patios, and retaining walls.
  • Inspect sump pits and test pump operation.
  • Book a licensed inspection if you notice backflow or recurring blockages.

For older properties, proactive upgrades are often more affordable than repeated callouts.
