Drainage systems face different challenges with each season. Here’s what Perth homeowners should do to maintain healthy drainage year-round.

Winter: Managing Increased Rainfall

Clear gutters and downpipes of leaves to prevent clogs during heavy rains.

Ensure ground drainage directs water away from your home’s foundation.

Spring: Dealing with Debris Buildup

Inspect drains and remove accumulated debris that may block water flow.

Perform pressure cleaning of drainage pipes if needed to restore function.

Summer: Preventing Soil Shifts and Roots

Tree roots can invade drainage lines during dry periods seeking moisture.

Professional root inspection and pruning extend drainage system longevity.

Autumn: Preparing for Cooler Conditions

Test drainage flow and repair any damage noticed after summer.

Schedule comprehensive inspections before winter sets in.
