Plumber in Brighton-Le-Sands.
Directly on Botany Bay — the most exposed and lowest-lying part of the St George area, and the one where tides genuinely affect drainage.
What we see in Brighton-Le-Sands.
The foreshore streets sit so low that a high tide reduces what the stormwater system can discharge. Heavy rain on a high tide is when properties here flood.
Facing the bay with no shelter, external fittings, roof plumbing and hot water systems corrode noticeably faster than a kilometre inland.
The foreshore towers combine basement pump-out systems with salt exposure — a combination that shortens equipment life and makes maintenance schedules important.

Asked in Brighton-Le-Sands.
Check what the tide was doing. These streets sit barely above bay level, so when the tide is high the stormwater system has less capacity to discharge into — the same rainfall that drains away fine at low tide has nowhere to go. That's why flooding here seems inconsistent. It also means the answer usually isn't simply clearing a blockage: it's about whether your property has enough fall and, in some cases, whether a non-return valve is needed to stop water backing in.
