Catch basin cleaning services happen annually. Although that is the “normal” timeframe, depending on the amount of traffic and season of the year, you might need yours cleaned more frequently. For example, wintertime has more road salt and other debris that cars pick up. Also, construction activities lead to excessive sediment and debris. Factors like this will increase the number of times a catch basin needs to be cleaned. For questions about your particular basin, contact us. We will discuss details specific to you.

Problems With My Catch Basin
How often does a catch basin need cleaned?
What is a Catch Basin?
A catch basin is generally an underground concrete structure that catches debris from parking lots, shops, and various other applications to prevent debris from going down the city sewer. Catch basins in areas largely covered in asphalt or concrete are responsible for drainage. They also work in areas where natural drainage cannot keep up with rain events.
Catch basins have rules associated with them that you can research for your particular area.
What problems can my catch basin have?
Catch basins can have two main types of issues. Firstly, if a catch basin collects too much debris without proper cleaning, it will have issues. The inlet line can be covered with mud, salts, and other debris. This causes it not to drain properly. Secondly, a catch basin without proper working baffles can allow leaves and other floating debris to enter the pipe, often causing a clogged line, and resulting in the catch basin no longer flowing properly.
