To the drainage below.
Downpipes link your gutters to the drainage system below. A damaged section, loose connection or blockage can interrupt that path and leave water spilling beside the building.
Jetty Plumbing repairs, replaces and installs downpipes around Coffs Harbour. We assess the affected pipe, brackets and connections, then explain which work will address the problem.
Tell us whether the pipe leaks at a joint, has visible cracks or backs up during rain. A photo of the full downpipe and the connection near the ground helps us understand the layout.

Leaks, movement & visible damageFind the failed section.
Find the failed section.
Restore the connection.
A leak may come from a failed joint or a damaged length of pipe. Loose supports can allow movement, while an obstruction can cause water to back up and escape at a connection.
We check the visible condition and discuss whether a fitting or section can be repaired. Where the pipe is worn through or damaged in several places, replacement may be more practical.
The gutter outlet needs attention as part of that assessment. If water also spills along the roof edge, our guttering service can help review the wider run.
Discuss your downpipe problemMaterials & routing / practical replacementA suitable pipe.
A suitable pipe.
A clear route for rainwater.
Replacement downpipes need to suit the existing gutter, available space and drainage connection. We discuss the proposed material, pipe route and supports before work starts.
Tell us if a downpipe has been moved, if paving has changed around its base or if it discharges in an unexpected place. Those details can help identify whether the connected drainage also needs investigation.
A new downpipe does not fix a blocked underground line on its own. We can discuss blocked drain investigation or stormwater drainage improvements where the symptoms point below ground.

FAQs
Your downpipe questions, answered.
How do I know whether a downpipe needs replacing?
Cracks, holes, rusted sections, bent pipework and repeated leaks are reasons for an assessment. A damaged joint or bracket may need a smaller repair, while worn pipework can make replacement more practical.
Why is water coming out near the bottom connection?
An obstruction in the pipe or connected stormwater line may cause water to back up. A loose or damaged connection can also leak. Tell us when it happens and whether other drains are affected.
Can you replace just one section?
Sometimes. It depends on the condition, material and available connections. We check the surrounding pipework and explain whether a section repair or a longer replacement is suitable.
Can you replace downpipes at the same time as gutters?
Yes. We can discuss the roof gutter, outlets and downpipes as one scope. That helps identify connection and access needs before the work starts.
What materials are available?
Options depend on the property, existing system, exposure and product requirements. We discuss suitable materials and the appearance of the replacement rather than assume one option suits every building.
Does an overflowing downpipe always mean the pipe is broken?
No. Leaves, debris or a blockage further along the drainage can also cause overflow. Assessment helps distinguish an obstruction from damaged pipework.
What information helps you quote the work?
Send the address, photos of the full pipe and damaged areas, and details of when it leaks. Building height, access and the connection near the ground also affect the work and price.
Which areas do you service?
Our team works across Coffs Harbour and the Coffs Coast, including Sawtell, Toormina and Woolgoolga. Share the property address when you contact us so we can confirm availability for your location.
