Reliable Wastewater Solutions You Can Trust

A properly installed sewer system is essential for the hygiene, safety, and performance of any property. In Auckland — where new developments, older suburbs, and unique ground conditions can place stress on underground pipework — faulty or outdated sewer lines can lead to leaks, blockages, contamination, and costly remediation.

A sewer line carries wastewater from your home or building to the public network. If it’s damaged, undersized, or incorrectly installed, it can cause slow drainage, odours, pipe collapse, or flooding. Ensuring your sewer system is built correctly and connected safely to Auckland’s network is critical for both compliance and day-to-day reliability. 

AH Drainage specialises in the installation, repair, and replacement of sewer systems across Auckland’s residential neighbourhoods, commercial sites, subdivisions, and public infrastructure. We manage every stage — trenching, alignment, pipework, connection, testing, and certification — ensuring your system operates efficiently and meets all Watercare and council standards.
