Where stormwater pits fit around your home

A stormwater pit is used where surface water needs to be collected before it can continue through the underground drainage. The right location depends on the layout of the property and the system the pit is connecting into.

On an existing home, a new pit may be added where drainage needs to be improved around part of the property. On a new build, pits are installed where they form part of the stormwater system required for the home.

Downpipe and drainage connections around a pit

Stormwater pit installation and connections

Installing the pit is only part of the job. It also needs to connect into the stormwater pipework so the collected water has somewhere to go after it enters the pit. We complete the excavation, pit installation and drainage connections required for the job, then backfill around the work once the underground components are in place.

Stormwater sump pits

A sump pit provides a low collection point where water can gather before it is moved on through the drainage system. Where a sump pit is required, we can install the pit and connect the surrounding stormwater pipework.

Stormwater pit pumps

Some pit and sump arrangements include a pump. Where one forms part of the system, we can install the plumbing and connections required around it.

Adding a pit to an existing stormwater system

Existing properties sometimes need another collection point when surface water is not getting into the drainage effectively. Where the existing layout allows it, a new pit can be connected into the stormwater system to give that water a clearer way in. Before work starts, we look at the drainage already in place and how the new pit needs to connect.

Stormwater pits for new homes

If a stormwater pit or sump pit forms part of your new-home stormwater system, we can include it as part of the installation. Send through the project information you have, including any relevant plans, and we can quote the work required for the pit along with the rest of the system.
