Overwhelmed by overflowing stormwater systems?
Gutters and downpipes often struggle to cope with heavy rainfall, especially during Brisbane’s hot and rainy summers. Having excess surface water in your garden can lead to soil erosion, slippery areas and significant property damage if not addressed properly. If you are sick of dealing with soggy gardens or ineffective downpipes, installing a trench drain might be the next step.

What Are Trench Drains?
Trench drains, also called channel drains, are a type of drainage system that makes the most of a continuous, long area. Unlike a round floor drain that’s only effective in a small area, a trench drain runs the length of a driveway or patio, diverting water across a wide area. This makes them great for diverting large amounts of stormwater, especially for homes and properties with a lot of paved or hard surfaces like townhouses, apartments or office buildings.
How Do I Know If I Need To Install A Trench Drain?
Trench drains are vital in managing stormwater and diverting excess surface water from your home or business.
If you have noticed any of these signs, then it might be time to consider installing a trench drain.
- Stagnant or standing water
- Cracks in the foundation of your home or business
- Soil erosion
- Your garden is unhealthy and waterlogged
What Are The Risks of Having Poor Drainage?
Protecting your home or business from flooding is often at the forefront of people’s minds, especially during Brisbane’s wet season. Poor water management and inadequate drainage can lead to cracked foundations, safety and trip hazards, pooling water, soil erosion and visible damage to your garden and landscaping. Installing a trench drain will make your soggy garden a thing of the past, improving the happiness and health of your home.
What Are The Benefits of Installing A Trench Drain?
Flood Prevention
Installing a trench drain in your home or business helps to reduce the risk of flooding and property damage. Trench drains make sure that excess surface water or stormwater runoff has a place to go and doesn’t create pools and puddles in your garden.
Improved Safety
Standing water on paved surfaces like driveways, pavements and pool decks can create potential slip hazards, putting your loved ones at risk of injury. Installing a trench drain effectively removes this water, keeping these areas safe and dry. This is particularly important for busy households with small children or elderly relatives.
Increased Aesthetics and Property Value
A well-designed trench drain system is a valuable addition to your property. With a wide variety of designs and materials to choose from, it can be integrated seamlessly into your home. It also makes for a unique selling point and gives potential buyers the peace of mind that their new house is protected from flooding and soil erosion.
Prevents Soil Erosion
Heavy rain and thunderstorms carry away the topsoil of your garden, leading to soil erosion if not treated quickly. Consistent soil erosion can expose tree roots and compromise the stability of your home. A trench drain intercepts stormwater runoff, allowing it to be safely diverted away from your property and garden.
Protects Your Garden and Landscaping
Heavy rain can carry away the topsoil of your garden, leading to erosion. Waterlogged soil can also lead to root rot, mildew, disease and can kill your plants. Trench drains help to maintain a healthy amount of water in your garden so that your landscaping remains happy and healthy.
