What is a storm drain used for?

Storm drains collect and redirect rainwater away from buildings, driveways, parking areas, and landscaped spaces to help prevent flooding and water damage.

How do I know if a storm drain needs cleaning?

Standing water, slow drainage after rain, debris buildup, foul odors, or water pooling near drains are signs that professional storm drain cleaning may be needed.

What causes storm drains to clog?

Clogs are commonly caused by leaves, dirt, trash, sediment, and other debris washing into the drain during rainstorms or landscaping runoff.

Can clogged storm drains cause flooding?

Yes. Blocked storm drains can cause water to back up and flood surrounding areas, potentially damaging foundations, pavement, and landscaping.

How often should storm drains be cleaned?

Cleaning frequency depends on location, nearby trees, and rainfall patterns. Drains in high-debris areas may require more regular maintenance to prevent blockages.

Are storm drain cleaning services usually completed in one visit?

Most storm drain cleanings can be completed in a single visit, depending on the amount of debris and accessibility of the drain.
