What is stormwater installation?

Stormwater pits and drainage systems are there to collect all the water from heavy rainfall events and take it away from your property and the street. A stormwater pit acts as a water collection “pit” or storage container for stormwater that holds all the runoff, before it drains away through connected drainage pipes.
