Plumbing in Shelley

Shelley's proximity to the river matters more than people expect. Lower-lying properties near the foreshore deal with higher water tables, which makes stormwater drainage and soakwell performance a recurring subject, particularly after a heavy winter. The housing stock skews to established homes with the same ageing supply lines as neighbouring Riverton.

Soakwells & stormwater in ShelleyThe lower-lying blocks near the foreshore are where soakwells struggle after a wet winter — and digging one out is not always the fix.

Shelley plumbing questions

Do you come out to Shelley?

Yes. Shelley adjoins Rossmoyne — the middle of it is three or four kilometres from our base by road — and we're there most days. For genuine emergencies, call rather than fill in the form.

My soakwells overflow every winter. Do they just need digging out?

Not necessarily. Silt is one cause, but in the lower-lying streets near the Canning the winter water table can leave the ground already full. That calls for a different design — depth, capacity and placement — not the same pit dug out again.
