Sanitary / Storm Drain System Maintenance (Click Here)

Storm Drain Maintenance

These systems transport and collect runoff rain water that may contain certain pollutants from parking lots and roads. Over extended periods of time these structures become impacted and clogged which results in flooding.   

Restoring proper drainage of these structures requires maintenance. All rain water must be removed from structures to access the sand bottoms. Removal of water can be preformed with either a pump truck, trailer, or by trash pumping the water from one storm drain into an empty storm drain. Then a vactor/guzzler will remove the bottom sediment from these structures. Bank run soil is required to be placed back into structures to insure them from settling.  Proper drainage will then be restored. 

Cost for this service is inexpensive because soil removed can be disposed at a landfill.

Sanitary System Maintenance

These systems consist of septic tanks, grease traps and overflow leaching cesspools. Septic tanks and grease traps should be maintained by monthly or quarterly services which remove the solid waste. The leaching cesspools take the overflow liquids which drains into the ground through the sand bottoms of structures. Over time some of these solids make their way into the leaching cesspools. This clogs the sand bottoms and can destroy the drainage of the sanitary systems by creating system backups which require pumping.

Restoring proper drainage of these structures require maintenance. The removal of all liquids from leaching cesspools is necessary. Removal can be performed by a pump truck or trailer. Then a vactor/guzzler will remove the bottom sediment from these structures. Often, bank run soil is required to be placed back into leaching pools to insure them from settling. 

This is a more costly option than a storm drain maintenance due to the soil disposal cost. This soil is considered a non-hazardous waste and is disposed at an approved transfer facility. This service will restore drainage and save on future costs because the need for excessive pumping from backups will no longer be an issue.
