☀️ DON’T LET SUMMER FOOL YOU… YOUR DRAINAGE PROBLEMS HAVEN’T DISAPPEARED.
As the weather dries up, it’s easy to forget about that overflowing pit, slow drain, soggy backyard or stormwater issue you had through the wetter months.
But the problem underground may still be there — and the next decent downpour could bring it straight back.
In fact… 🌧️ FUN FACT: Melbourne actually receives more rain on average in SPRING than WINTER!
Summer is one of the best times to get drainage problems investigated and repaired. The ground is generally drier, access is easier and you can get on top of the problem before it becomes an emergency in wet weather.
🎥 BOOK A CCTV DRAIN INSPECTION WITH HOAD DRAINAGE
We can CCTV your drainage system and provide a report on its condition, identifying issues such as:
🔹 Cracked or damaged pipes
🔹 Tree root intrusion
🔹 Displaced or failed joints
🔹 Collapsed sections
🔹 Blockages and restrictions
🔹 Pipes holding water / poor falls
🔹 Other potential drainage problems before they become bigger ones
🌳 Another fun fact: Clearing tree roots from a drain doesn't necessarily fix the problem. If the roots entered through a cracked pipe or failed joint, they can grow back until the actual defect is repaired.
Don’t wait for the next big Melbourne downpour to find out your drainage problem is still there.
Get it checked while conditions are good.
📞 Book a CCTV drainage inspection with Hoad Drainage & Excavations.
Find it. See it. Fix it — before the rain does.
