Storm Drains Are Not the Sewer Line

Storm drains carry rain and snowmelt away from the property. They are a separate system from the sanitary sewer, and they clog with completely different material. Leaves, silt, gravel and sediment, never any grease or paper here.

Cleaning means clearing the catch basin, the yard drains and the line that carries water to the outlet. Debris gets pulled out and hauled off. The outlet gets checked so the water actually has somewhere to go.

Signs the Storm Drains Are Blocked

  • Water Pools After Rain

    Water pools in the yard or the driveway for hours after every rainstorm.

  • Catch Basin Full

    The catch basin sits full of leaves and standing water instead of draining.

  • Basement Takes Water

    A basement or a garage takes on water during heavy Connecticut spring rain.

  • Downspouts Overflow

    Downspouts back up and overflow at the ground instead of carrying water away.

  • Never Been Cleaned

    The storm drain has never been cleaned since the property changed hands last.

  • Ice Every Winter

    Ice builds up over the drain every winter because water sat there first.

Storm Drain Services We Handle in Connecticut

  • 01

    Catch Basin Cleaning in Connecticut

    A catch basin is the boxed inlet that collects runoff before it reaches the line. The sump at the bottom fills with leaves, silt and gravel over the seasons. Clearing it restores the flow into the pipe again.

  • 02

    Yard and Area Drain Cleaning in Connecticut

    Yard drains and area drains sit low on the property to catch water that sheets over the ground. Roots, silt and turf grow over them and choke the inlet. Cleaning reopens the grate and the line beneath it.

  • 03

    Downspout Line Cleaning in Connecticut

    Downspout lines carry roof water underground toward the yard or out to the street. Granules from the shingles, leaves and sediment build up inside of them. When that line packs, the water comes out at the foundation instead.

  • 04

    Trench and Driveway Drain Cleaning in Connecticut

    Trench drains at a garage door or a driveway apron take the most direct hit from runoff. Grit, sand and winter road material settle inside the channel. Clearing it prevents water from running back toward the whole building.

  • 05

    Seasonal Storm Drain Maintenance in Connecticut

    Connecticut properties see heavy leaf drop in fall and heavy rain in spring. A cleaning before each of those two seasons keeps the system open. Skipping it is what turns a full basin into a flooded basement floor.

  • 06

    Commercial Parking Lot Drain Cleaning in Connecticut

    Parking lots, loading docks and commercial sites carry more water and more grit than any yard does. Their basins fill faster and the consequences are much bigger. Scheduled cleaning protects the pavement and keeps the whole site open.

How Storm Drain Cleaning Works

  1. Free Estimate

    Call or send the form. The problem, the timing and the price get confirmed before work.

  2. Open And Check

    The crew opens the catch basin and the drains and checks how deep the debris sits.

  3. Pull The Debris

    Leaves, silt, gravel and sediment get pulled out and the line to the outlet is cleared.

  4. Test The Flow

    Water gets run through to confirm it reaches the outlet before the crew leaves your property.

Why Connecticut Property Owners Choose

  • Real Drain Work

    Storm drains get treated as real drain work here, not as yard cleanup done with a shovel and a bucket.

  • The Outlet Gets Checked

    The outlet gets checked, not just the basin. A clean basin draining into a blocked line solves nothing at all.

  • Free Estimates, Confirmed Pricing

    Estimates are free and the price is confirmed first. Residential and commercial jobs run on exactly the same clear terms.

Storm Drain Questions We Get Every Week

The ones on your property are yours. Catch basins, yard drains and downspout lines on private land belong to the owner. The drains out in the street belong to the town, and those go through public works instead.

Twice a year works for most Connecticut properties. Once after the leaves come down in fall, and once before the heavy rain arrives in spring. Lots with a lot of mature trees sometimes need more than just that.

No, they're separate systems built for two different things. A storm drain carries rain and snowmelt away, and a sanitary line carries waste. Nothing you flush inside the house ever goes into the storm drain outside at all.

Water that cannot get into the drain sits on the surface instead. In winter it freezes there, and that ice sits on your driveway or your walkway all season long. It also works its way into the pavement.

Usually water backing up at the foundation instead of running away from it. Downspout lines pack with shingle granules and sediment over the years. Once that line closes up, the roof water has nowhere else left to go.

Yes, and commercial sites usually need it more often than homes do. Parking lots collect more water, more grit and more winter road sand. The basins fill faster and standing water starts damaging the pavement underneath it all.
