New homes and extensions
Stormwater layouts for residential projects where roof water, paved areas, site falls and discharge points need coordinated documentation.
Stormwater Drainage Design
Residential stormwater drainage design for Melbourne projects.
Linfinity Engineering prepares stormwater drainage documentation for new homes, extensions, duplexes, townhouses and small residential developments.
We coordinate pits, pipes, roof water, site levels, discharge points, OSD requirements, basement drainage and structural interfaces so drainage can be resolved before approval or construction.

Service Fit
Good fit when levels and discharge need engineering
Residential drainage should be considered before site levels, paving, retaining walls and basement details are fixed, especially on constrained or multi-unit sites.
Duplexes and townhouses
Drainage coordination for infill developments where shared driveways, multiple roofs, levels and authority requirements affect the design.
Council requirements
Documentation prepared around known council or authority drainage requirements, including OSD where required.
Basement and retaining interfaces
Drainage strategy where basement slabs, retaining walls, pumps, pits or below-ground interfaces need early coordination.
Deliverables
Typical drainage design outputs
- Stormwater drainage layouts with pits, pipes and discharge details
- Drainage calculations and notes where required by the project scope
- OSD and outlet-control coordination where authority requirements apply
- Basement drainage, pump or sump coordination where needed
- Coordination with architectural drawings, structural details and site levels

From site levels to coordinated drainage documentation.
01
Review survey and drawings
We review architectural drawings, feature survey, proposed levels, title information and known council drainage requirements.
02
Set the drainage path
We coordinate discharge, falls, pits, pipes, detention and interfaces with retaining walls, basements and structures.
03
Document for approval and build
The drainage package supports approval review, consultant coordination, pricing and construction.
Common Questions
Questions before you send drawings or site details.
Send the project context
Upload drawings, site photos, surveys, reports or a short note about what you need. Linfinity will review the scope and respond with the right next step.
Start an EnquiryWhen does a residential project need stormwater drainage design?
Drainage design is commonly needed for new homes, townhouses, multi-unit developments, extensions, basements and projects with council or authority stormwater requirements.
What information should I send for drainage design?
Send architectural drawings, feature survey, proposed levels, title information, council drainage requirements and any existing drainage information if available.
Can drainage be coordinated with structural design?
Yes. Linfinity can coordinate drainage with structural design so retaining walls, basement works, slab levels and drainage paths do not conflict.
