Roof plumbing is the system most homeowners forget until something fails. Box gutters on Victorian terraces, internal gutters on commercial buildings, and stormwater connections on sloping blocks all require licensed roof plumbers — not general handymen. Cascone Roofing handles roof-related plumbing and drainage as part of roofing projects or as standalone compliance work.

Repair or replace failed components to current plumbing code — including correct fall, outlet sizing, and legal discharge point.
- Install & certify
Work completed by licensed roof plumbers with compliance certificates issued for notifiable work.
Roof Plumbing FAQs
Do roof plumbers and roofers do the same work?
Roof plumbing is a specialised plumbing class covering gutters, downpipes, roof flashings, and stormwater. Cascone Roofing holds both roofing and plumbing registrations for integrated projects.
What is a box gutter and why do they fail?
Box gutters are enclosed channels built into the roof structure on terrace homes and commercial buildings. They fail when internal waterproofing deteriorates or outlets block — often causing water to enter wall cavities before any external sign appears.
Can you fix illegal stormwater connections?
Yes. We rectify stormwater illegally connected to sewer lines and issue compliance certificates for notifiable plumbing work.
Where We Provide Plumbing and Drainage
Box gutter failures and stormwater compliance work is common on Victorian terraces in Clifton Hill and Fairfield, and on renovated homes across the inner north.
