A real person answers, day or night
Get stormwater sorted properly
Call (02) 9072 0517 and walk through what actually happens on the property during rain, that alone typically gives a licensed plumber a solid starting theory.
Feels more like a sewer problem than surface water? Blocked sewer covers that instead.
What points to a genuine fault
- Ground taking noticeably longer than usual to actually dry out
- Gutters and downpipes overrun on every heavy rain event
- Water gathering toward the house instead of draining away
- A pit visibly clogged with leaf litter or built-up silt
The foreshore fights a different battle
Streets down near Gwawley Bay and the Georges River sit close enough to sea level that tidal pressure genuinely factors into how a system performs, something a block up near Sylvania Southgate never has to account for
A persistent flooding spot after every downpour more often traces back to grading that was wrong from the start than any single blockage
Established trees test older lines harder
Sylvania's mature street canopy sends root systems actively hunting for moisture, and stormwater pits and joints on an ageing line are an obvious target once things start to crack or shift.
Extending a home compounds that pressure too, extra roof and paving all needs somewhere to drain, usually into pipework that was only ever sized for what used to be there.
How it works
The process, start to finish
- 01
Call and tell us
Ring (02) 9072 0517 and describe what's happening, and a licensed plumber, not an answering machine, will tell you what it likely means, what to stop using, and when we can realistically be there.
- 02
Quote before work
Your plumber inspects the job properly, runs whatever diagnosis it genuinely needs, and hands you a single fixed written price covering the complete fix, with a $0 call out fee and nothing added afterwards.
- 03
Sized for the site, not a guess
Capacity and fall get confirmed against the actual block, never taken from a generic plan.

Backed for life
Everything we complete is covered by our Lifetime Labour Warranty, the promise that outlasts the job itself: if it's not right, we come back. No questions. No cost.
Why choose Your Plumber Sylvania
Fixed prices, kept
Every job is priced upfront in plain writing before any work starts, the invoice always matches that number, and weekend or late-evening timing changes nothing, because overtime rates simply don't exist here.
Licensed and insured
Your Plumber Sylvania works under licence #275278C with full insurance behind every job, and the compliance certificates that protect your home's paperwork trail arrive with the invoice, without you ever needing to ask for them.
Lifetime Labour Warranty
Workmanship here is guaranteed for life under our Lifetime Labour Warranty rather than for a warranty card's fine-print window, which says more about how the work is done in the first place than any advertisement could.
Genuinely local response
We work these streets constantly rather than commuting in from across Sydney, so the van reaching you has usually just left a job nearby, stocked for the faults the local houses actually develop.
Where we work
Areas we service
The same stormwater standard extends across Miranda, Sylvania Waters, Kangaroo Point, Oyster Bay, Yowie Bay and Caringbah.

Good questions, straight answers
Stormwater questions locals ask
After heavy rain, does ground taking a day or two to dry out actually point to a genuine stormwater fault?
Sometimes, particularly on the lower foreshore streets, an undersized or partially blocked line can genuinely fall behind during a heavy Sydney downpour, and that shows up exactly as lingering waterlogged ground.
Does living near Gwawley Bay genuinely complicate stormwater design compared to an elevated inland block?
It does, tidal pressure and how close the block sits to sea level change how a system copes with volume compared to ground well above that, and that gets factored in from the design stage.
Adding a deck, patio or an extension, does that meaningfully add load to the existing stormwater system?
It absolutely does, every extra square metre of roof or paving channels more volume into a line that was never upsized to match, and that math needs doing before building starts, not after a downpour exposes the gap.
Is maintaining stormwater infrastructure the homeowner's responsibility or council's?
It splits along the boundary line, whatever sits on private property is the homeowner's to look after, while anything beyond that connection point becomes council's responsibility under an entirely different framework.
