Sandton notes on drainage, sewage & dewatering
Deep basements around Sandton Central collect groundwater and storm water, and <a href="/sump-pumps/">sump pumps</a> with floats, duty and standby units and alarms keep the lower levels dry. New towers often hire dewatering pumps while the excavation is open. Along the Jukskei near Alexandra and the Braamfontein Spruit in Bryanston, low lying gardens flood after cloudbursts. Pool pump repairs are steady work in the leafy suburbs.
Who pumps what in Sandton
Sandton's pumping problems are often underground. The office towers and apartment blocks around the CBD, Rivonia Road and Grayston Drive have several levels of basement parking, and groundwater seeping in plus storm water running down the ramps has to be pumped out by sump pumps that must not fail. Tall buildings need booster sets to push water to the top floors, with tanks on site for water cuts. In the gardens of Bryanston, Hyde Park and Morningside, boreholes in granite feed irrigation and pools. The Braamfontein Spruit and the Jukskei, which runs past Alexandra, rise fast in summer storms. Maintenance contractors and pump specialists come in from Wynberg, Kramerville and Marlboro.
Typical slurry pumps requests in the area come from:
- Offices, shops, hotels and lodges: car wash silt traps and sand traps at large sites emptied
- Homeowners: rarely needed at home, perhaps to clear silt from a large ornamental dam
- Complexes, estates and body corporates: silted lakes and storm water ponds cleaned out during maintenance
