ABOUT FLOODWORKS
FloodWorks is a multidisciplinary engineering and environmental consultancy specialising in the planning, design, and assessment of sustainable urban and rural water systems. FloodWorks delivers practical, innovative, and cost-effective solutions to the development and infrastructure sectors.
Our core vision is to enhance the quality of rainwater from the point of contact through to its discharge into receiving waters, including rivers, estuaries, and marine environments. Through evidence-based design and application of sustainable water management principles, FloodWorks aims to reduce pollutant loads, manage flow regimes, and protect ecological function within catchments.
Increased runoff associated with land use change—such as urban development, land clearing, and agriculture—has had a significant impact on waterway health in many regions. These changes have contributed to the degradation of aquatic ecosystems through increased sedimentation, nutrient loading, and alteration of hydrological patterns.
FloodWorks applies integrated water management and control volume-based approaches to quantify and mitigate these impacts, with a focus on achieving both environmental outcomes and planning compliance. Our work supports the long-term protection of water quality, aquatic habitat, and riparian resilience, while enabling responsible development and infrastructure planning.
We are committed to supporting catchment-based initiatives and community-led restoration programs to ensure a collaborative approach to catchment health and water sustainability.
