Stormwater Drainage
Close to the river, New Farm ground conditions vary and low points can be slow to clear, so we plan stormwater routes that move roof and surface water away from homes and courtyards.


Drainage enquiries that consider the home, outdoor spaces and finished surfaces of your New Farm property.

Established homes and apartment buildings in New Farm often combine shaded courtyards, finished paving and garden edges that owners want to keep looking good.
