Drainage & stormwater works
Water is the reason most paving, concrete and retaining walls fail. Terraza Civil designs and builds surface drainage that moves water away from your house and hard surfaces: strip drains, agricultural drains, pits and rock drainage beds, set to proper falls.

What we build

- Agricultural drains behind retaining walls and along boundaries
- Pits and grates relevelled or installed
- Rock drainage beds along houses and side passages
- Re-grading so surfaces fall away from the house
Licensed plumbing connections
In Victoria, connecting stormwater to the legal point of discharge is plumbing work. We design and build the surface drainage and civil works; final connections are completed by licensed plumbers we coordinate, so you still deal with one team.
How much does drainage cost?
Every job is different, so every Terraza quote is fixed-price and itemised after a free measure. These are the things that move the price:
| Job | Price | What changes the price |
|---|---|---|
| Strip drain | Quote on request | Length, grate type, connection |
| Ag drain | Quote on request | Length, depth, backfill |
| Pits & regrading | Quote on request | Number of pits, area |
Questions
Drainage FAQ
Can you fix water pooling on my paving?
Yes. Depending on the cause we regrade, add a strip drain or relay the affected area with correct falls.
Do I need a plumber?
For the final stormwater connection, yes. We coordinate licensed plumbers so it's handled within our quote.
Can drainage be added under existing paving?
Often, by lifting a section, installing the drain and relaying the pavers.
