At Shire Care Plumbing, we can investigate existing sewer drainage systems and assist with repairs, pipe replacements, new sewer junctions, boundary trap repairs and underground sewer pipe alterations.

Whether you're replacing old earthenware sewer pipes, repairing damaged PVC drainage or extending sewer lines for additional plumbing fixtures, we can help determine the work required.

Sydney Water Sewer Diagrams, Applications & Drainage Connections

Planning a home extension, sewer drainage upgrade or new wastewater connection?

Shire Care Plumbing can assist with obtaining Sydney Water Sewer Service Diagrams and relevant service location plans to help identify existing sewer pipework, property drainage connections and nearby Sydney Water assets.

Depending on the proposed work, we can also help you understand the plumbing information required for Sydney Water applications, building plan approvals, sewer connection alterations and drainage upgrades.

This may include:

  • Obtaining Sydney Water Sewer Service Diagrams
  • Reviewing available sewer and service location plans
  • Investigating existing sewer connection points and boundary traps
  • Assessing private sewer drainage alterations for extensions and building works
  • Assisting with relevant Sydney Water Tap in application requirements
  • Identifying when a Water Servicing Coordinator or other accredited provider is required
  • Explaining applicable Sydney Water diagram, application and approval fees

Sydney Water approvals and connection requirements depend on the property and proposed work. Any work affecting Sydney Water assets must follow the relevant approval and accreditation requirements.

Stormwater Drainage for Home Extensions & Property Upgrades

Building an extension, new garage, outdoor entertaining area or additional bathroom?

Changes to your property may require alterations to existing stormwater or sewer drainage systems.

We can assist with underground pipe relocations, new drainage connections, stormwater pits, sewer line extensions and replacement of existing pipework affected by building works.

We can also investigate ageing or inadequate drainage systems and recommend suitable upgrades.

Backyard, Driveway & Subsoil Drainage

Poor stormwater drainage can result in pooling water around homes, driveways, courtyards, pathways and gardens.

Depending on the property's layout and site conditions, drainage solutions may include grated stormwater pits, channel drains, underground stormwater pipes, downpipe connections and suitable subsoil drainage systems.

Our aim is to help manage unwanted water and direct it to an appropriate approved discharge point.

Residential, Commercial & Strata Drainage Services

While our primary focus is residential drainage, Shire Care Plumbing also assists commercial properties and strata-managed buildings with sewer and stormwater pipe repairs, drainage upgrades, stack replacements and underground drainage alterations.
