Subsoil Drainage Job In Mosman

Subsoil Drainage Job In Mosman

Subfloor Drainage Solutions Mosman

The Challenge

Our Mosman customer was experiencing significant damp and moisture issues in the subfloor of their home. If not taken care of properly, this problem threatens the structural integrity and increases the risk of mould and mildew.

Our Solution

Using a Cat 301.8 excavator and our team's hard work, we excavated 20 tonnes of sand and dirt along the front and side passages of the rock layer.

Our specialised drainage installation included:

Subsoil Drainage System: Our plumbers combined the power of a Siphonic Belt with an agricultural (French drain) line and PVC pipework to ensure maximum water diversion.

Advanced Filtration: After we finished the agricultural line and other pipework, we installed 20 tonnes of coarse river sand around the drainage lines to allow superior flow and drainage.

Surface Protection: We integrated a strip drain against the house's perimeter to intercept surface runoff and stormwater protection.

After our team completed this job, we left the property clean and tidy. If you are experiencing a similar drainage problem, give our professional and dedicated team a call on 1300 520 898 or fill out our online booking form.

Alexandria Mandible st - fire hydrant supply repair

 

 

 

Job Summary – Mandible Street, Alexandria

 

Our client contacted Everyday Plumbing regarding a significant water leak located beneath Mandible Street, Alexandria. Sydney Water had advised that the leak was likely from a fire service pipe supplying water for firefighting purposes. The leak was positioned in the centre of the road and occurring at a considerable rate. The client had also received a Notice to Comply from Council.

 

We were engaged to investigate and confirm that the leaking pipe was the client’s fire service, determine responsibility, and assess repair options. The system had been shut down to prevent further damage to the roadway.

 

Due to the road’s busy nature and limited access (single lane each direction in a mixed industrial and residential area), Council did not permit daytime works. As a result, all works were carried out at night to ensure safety and traffic management compliance.

 

Initial works involved tracing the pipe to accurately locate the source of the leak prior to excavation. Saw cutting, excavation, and non-destructive digging (vacuum excavation) were carried out to expose the pipe.

 

Upon inspection, the pipe was identified as an old steel line with significant corrosion, making repair unfeasible. A full replacement was required.

 

We replaced approximately 25 metres of pipe from the connection point on the opposite side of the road to the building. At the client’s request, the new pipe was upsized to allow for future capacity upgrades.

 

Works were completed over multiple nights and included installation of new copper pipework, backfilling, and full restoration of the roadway. New hydrant infrastructure and backflow prevention devices were also installed in accordance with current regulations.

Central Hot Water Failure

 

 

 

 

 

Residential unit block 15 units has a central hot water unit, the existing gas infrastructure was old and inadequate resulting in insufficient gas pressure to the central hot water water causing it to go into "fault mode" ultimately leading to no hot water for residents. It also leads to service calls by hour company to reset and reignite the system as the "raypak hot water heater" thinks there are unsafe conditions thus does not automatically reignite.

we identified the cause to be low supply pressure and be undersized gas pipe work from the authorities gas mains to the Raypak heater, during high demand periods (generally evenings) when cooking, heating and showering is undertaken the gas pressure within the private pipwork drops due to demand exceeding supply which then causes the low gas pressure sensor to activate and shutdown the hot water unit.

we replaced te pipe work from the authorities connection point- (path valve) to the building multiple gas meters and to the hot water system with a larger diameter pipe 65mm. This has resolved the issues 

Drainage Subsoil, Stormwater and Sewer Reconstruction In Kyle Bay

Drainage Subsoil, Stormwater and Sewer Reconstruction In Kyle Bay

Drainage and Moisture Control in Kyle Bay

This customer in Kyle Bay called us about a chronically wet concrete slab along the side of their house. This was causing a significant mould problem inside their home and bedrooms as well as making their carpets wet. In addition to this, there were also some underlying issues with the existing stormwater and sewer systems, including blockages, poor pipework and tree root intrusion.

For this project, our team used excavation, drainage and moisture control techniques to protect this home's concrete slab and walls from long-term water damage.

Why Does This Happen?

This type of drainage issue is common in Sydney properties that are built on dense clay soils. Clay naturally holds onto water rather than letting it drain away. When combined with a poorly designed drainage system or old infrastructure, excess water becomes trapped in and around the building. 

How We Diagnosed It

Our plumbers assessed the water flow, checked the performance of the drains and identified faults in the existing system.

On jobs like these, we typically use CCTV Drain Inspection techniques and testing to locate blockages, tree root intrusion and structural pipe issues.

Our Drainage Strategy

Our strategy was to install a subsoil and surface drain at the back and western side of the home to prevent further damage to the structural integrity of this Kyle Bay property.

This system was designed to:

  • Move water away from the foundation quickly
  • Allow the concrete slab and walls to breathe and stay dry
  • Prevent excess water damage and stagnation during heavy rain and storms
  • Separate the stormwater and subsoil drainage systems

Our Work

This drainage project in Kyle Bay included:

  • Excavating trenches and removing the dense clay soil
  • Installing a breathable drainage cell against the walls and slabs of the home to allow for airflow
  • Installing a subsoil drainage system (aggi drain, syphonic pipe system) and a dedicated PVC line for new surface drains
  • Backfilling the trenches with a mixture of sand and gravel for fast-acting drainage
  • Repairing stormwater and sewer issues, including root removal
  • Removed troublesome tree and replaced pavers with concrete paths to reduce water penetration

The Results

This new drainage system keeps this Kyle Bay home safe and dry, effectively draining away surface water while preventing future blockages from occurring.
