Civil & Drainage
in Berwick.

Berwick's hills move water fast, so drainage here is about catching the runoff and getting it away before it finds its way under a slab.

Overview

Drainage in
Berwick.

Berwick mixes established homes with premium builds on sloping ground. That means surface runoff to control, agi drains behind retaining walls, stormwater runs following a fall, and getting water to the discharge point rather than into the neighbour's yard.

We plan the run around the fall of the block, dig to line and level, then lay, backfill and compact so nothing washes out the first time it rains hard.

On a sloping Berwick block, water is the thing that undoes the job. Subsoil drainage behind a retaining wall, a cut-off drain above the pad and a properly fallen stormwater run are what keep the ground stable and the wall standing.

Berwick questions

Common questions.

Do you install agi and subsoil drains behind retaining walls in Berwick?

Yes. On sloping Berwick blocks that drainage is what stops a wall failing, so the agi line, the aggregate behind it and the outlet all go in as part of the job.

Can you fix runoff coming down onto my block?

Often, yes. A cut-off drain above the pad, sensible surface grading and a properly fallen stormwater run are the usual answer to water coming off higher ground.

Do you cover Berwick and Beaconsfield?

We do. Berwick, Beaconsfield, Harkaway and the surrounding pockets are all part of our South East Melbourne service area.
