Submersible Pumps Hire
Sydney

For rainwater on a slab or in a pit, a 50 mm submersible does most jobs. Big volumes step up to 100 mm. The real question is what's in the water — the moment there's mud, leaves or solids, you want a trash pump, not a clean-water pump with ambitions.

A pump built to pass solids — mud, stones, debris — without blocking. Muddy excavations, stormwater pits and anything that smells bad are trash-pump territory. Clean-water pumps die quickly in that duty.

Quoted alongside — suction hose, layflat discharge and couplings matched to the pump. Measure the run from the water to wherever it's legally going and tell us the distance and any uphill.

With a float switch, yes — the pump cuts in when water rises and off when it's done, which is how basements and pits ride out a wet week. Ask for the float when you book.

50 mm pumps run from a standard outlet (mind the RCD); bigger electrics want 15 A or three-phase; diesel pumps need nothing but fuel. No power at the hole? Generator or diesel pump — we'll quote both.

Somewhere lawful — which usually means not straight into the stormwater system if it's dirty. Sites have their own discharge rules; silty water may need settling first. We supply the gear; your site's environmental controls govern the discharge point.
