About Us
There are many businesses that have ‘values’ words on the wall, including us. But in everything we do, we try to live up to them:
- Transparency
- Reliability
- Professionalism
- Sustainability
- Innovation
We find that these values work for our clients and for us, particularly in providing confidence in an increasingly uncertain climate.

Our Approach
Stormwater Newcastle was founded with goal of providing a simple, highly professional, multi-disciplined, one-stop solutions to stormwater issues, needs and requirements. We’re dedicated to providing a complete and holistic approach to stormwater management. We’re with you every step of the way – through design and construction to repair, maintenance, and certification.
Our STORY
Our founders reasoned that far too many building owners experience issues caused by stormwater and that most struggle to find a solution.
During the past 25 years, there has been significant improvement in the way waterways are managed, largely driven by Councils and the various environmental authorities, however at the level of individual properties, there is a long way to go. That’s where our 30-years of building and onsite stormwater management services comes in.


Our PEOPLE
Our people are based in Newcastle, Hunter and on the Central Coast. They have spent their entire careers working across water and building industries, enabling them to provide sound, cost effective solutions to your stormwater issues. They include plumbers, builders, landscapers, engineers, admin staff and anyone else we could conceivably need to complete the job on time and on budget.
