Problems this service addresses
Surface water collecting in a defined low spot can have different causes. The right solution depends on the slope, soil, runoff source and available discharge location.
How catch basin installation works
The inlet is positioned at the actual low point and set at an elevation water can reach. The pipe route and outlet are installed, and the surface around the basin is shaped and restored.
When it may be appropriate
A catch basin may suit localized surface pooling. It will not correct water moving through saturated soil, and a grate without a working outlet is incomplete.
What affects cost?
Basin count, pipe route, excavation, outlet work and repairs to lawn, concrete or paving affect cost.
A useful quote identifies the collection area, route, outlet, excavation, cleanup and restoration so totals can be compared on the same scope.
Catch Basin Installation FAQs
Why does water pool beside a grate?
The grate may be blocked, set too high or connected to a restricted pipe or outlet.
Does a catch basin need cleaning?
Yes. Leaves and sediment need to be removed before they obstruct collection.
Catch basin or channel drain?
A basin collects at a point; a channel intercepts water along an edge.
