Why Book a Downpipe Inspection?
Regular downpipe inspection helps identify problems early and ensures your property complies with Queensland stormwater regulations. Common issues we uncover include:
- Blocked downpipes due to leaves and debris
- Rust, cracks, or holes in pipes
- Loose or misaligned joints and fittings
- Water leaking into walls or foundations
- Downpipes discharging incorrectly onto the ground
Inspections are especially important before Brisbane’s storm season, when heavy rainfall puts your drainage system under maximum stress.

Our Downpipe Inspection Process
At LJM Plumbing, we use a structured process to ensure every downpipe inspection is thorough and accurate:
- Visual assessment of gutters, downpipes, and connections
- Water flow testing to check for leaks or blockages
- Inspection of stormwater connections and discharge points
- Identification of structural issues such as sagging or corrosion
- Recommendations for cleaning, repairs, or replacement
If needed, we can also carry out CCTV drain inspections to check underground connections for tree roots or damage.
