Doing nothing is the most expensive option on this page.

Broward mails the renewal notice to the address on file. That's usually the original developer or a former management company. The license lapses, nobody knows, and the exposure sits with the board.

What an expired license costs you

$15,000per offense. Civil penalties under Florida Statutes §403.121. An expired Surface Water Management license is a code violation.

Flooded parking lots, tenant complaints, and slip-and-fall exposure every time it rains hard
Emergency call-outs priced at emergency rates instead of a planned flat fee
Two vendors, two invoices, and an engineer who won't certify the other guy's cleaning
Hurricane season runs through November 30. Every storm tests drains that haven't been cleaned.

What renewing with us costs you

One flat feefrom $3,500 per license. Cleaning up to 10 structures, PE certification, drainage sketch and county filing included. County fees and repairs separate. Locked in writing before we start.

Renewed five-year license in your hands in 2–4 weeks

Why boards switch to us

You've had two bad options. Here's the third.

Our apartment parking lot in Miramar kept flooding, and my kids and I would get soaked trying to reach the car before school. SF Storm Drain came out in less than a day and cleaned out the drains. It rained hard last week, and the parking lot did not flood at all. We got to school dry and without any problems. Great service.

I'm a nurse and the hospital parking lot would flood every time we got heavy rain. I would end up walking into work with wet shoes and soaked pants. SF Storm Drain came out, cleaned the drains, and fixed the problem.

Pricing was the same number they quoted. That's harder to find than it should be.

Facilities DirectorOffice park, Broward

★★★★★

Their proposal made sense to a board that isn't full of engineers. Photos and PE sign-off arrived on time.

HOA Board PresidentPalm Beach

★★★★★

Showed up when they said, sent a clean report the same week, invoiced the way we needed.

★★★★★

The CCTV files were properly indexed and the PACP coding was right. Easy team to subcontract.

Is this for you?

We only work with properties where this actually matters.

This is for you if you manage or own

An HOA or condominium association with a drainage system
Retail, office, or industrial property with catch basins or retention
A management company portfolio across Broward, Miami-Dade, or Palm Beach
Schools, houses of worship, hospitals, or municipal sites
Engineering or GC work that needs a reliable stormwater sub with PACP-coded CCTV

This is not for you if

You need a residential plumber for a single-family home
You want the cheapest hourly rate rather than a fixed, documented result
You'd rather coordinate an engineer and a cleaning crew yourself

Commercial and community properties only. That focus is why the process works.

Storm drain cleaning across South Florida

Recertification is one job we do. The other one, the one most properties call about first, is commercial storm drain cleaning: vacuuming catch basins down to the invert, hydro-jetting the pipe runs between them, and camera-verifying that flow is actually restored. We work for HOAs, condo associations, property managers, retail centers, industrial sites, and municipalities across Palm Beach, Broward, and Miami-Dade.

Routine catch basin cleaning has a $1,500 job minimum covering up to 5 structures. Larger jobs are $130 to $275 per structure, subject to the minimum; heavy or treatment structures add $150 each. hydro-jetting $1,750 half day or $3,200 full day, and CCTV inspection $1,750 diagnostic up to 300 ft, then $15 per additional foot. Every job comes back with per-structure photos, debris volume, and a disposal manifest, the documentation that keeps your compliance file defensible. See the full 2026 cost guide.

No hidden fees

Real prices, published. Because you're going to ask anyway.

Volume lowers your per-unit price: cleaning 30 basins in one visit costs far less each than cleaning 3. Photos, manifests, and service reports are included with every job.

FAQ

"But what if…"

What is a drainage inspection for an HOA?

A drainage inspection is a documented walkthrough of every catch basin, pipe, outfall, and control structure on the property. Our crew opens each structure, photographs conditions, and notes deficiencies. For HOAs it creates the baseline an engineer needs to certify a recertification — and the board packet that proves the system was maintained.

How much does catch basin cleaning cost in Broward County?

Most commercial properties pay per structure, with the total driven by basin count, sediment volume, and disposal requirements. We quote a fixed fee in writing within 48 hours after a free site walk — no hourly billing and no change orders. Annual plans for HOAs typically cost less per visit than one-off emergency cleanings.

How often should a commercial property clean its catch basins?

At least once a year for most commercial sites in South Florida. Properties with heavy tree canopy, lake frontage, or industrial sediment loading need twice-yearly service plus a pre-hurricane-season pass. Skipping cleanings is the most common reason systems fail inspection when a recertification comes due.

Do you work with property management companies?

Yes. We set up portfolio-wide maintenance plans with consolidated reporting, board-friendly photo packets, and vendor-compliant invoicing across Miami-Dade, Broward, and Palm Beach. One mobilization can sweep an entire master-planned HOA, and we coordinate directly with on-site managers on scheduling and access.

…our license expired two years ago. Is it too late?

No. An expired license can still be renewed. The process is the same; the only difference is the exposure you carry until it is filed. Start with the free license check and we'll tell you exactly where you stand.

…our current vendor already cleaned the drains?

Their cleaning only counts if the engineer inspects the system after it and is willing to certify it. In practice we clean and certify in the same visit so nothing falls between vendors.

…the county rejects the filing?

For any work within our scope, we fix it and refile at no cost. That guarantee is in writing on every contract. Across 73 Broward recertifications, we have never had a denial.

…the price goes up once you're on site?

It can't. The flat fee is quoted after a free site walk and locked in writing before we start. No hourly billing, no change orders for the certification, no separate engineering invoice.

…we have more than one license on the property?

Common on larger sites. Peppertree Plaza had three. We quote per license and handle all of them in one mobilization.

…the board wants to see documentation first?

Send them this page, then the free license check result. When the job is done they get the renewed license, the sealed certification, the inspection report, the photo log of every structure, and a copy of the county filing.

…we're in Miami-Dade or Palm Beach, not Broward?

We serve all three counties. Miami-Dade properties get DERM stormwater compliance support; Palm Beach properties get SFWMD ERP inspection and O&M work. Same crew, same documentation.

…it's a single-family home?

Then we're not the right fit. We serve commercial and community properties only: HOAs, condominiums, retail, office, industrial, institutional, schools, houses of worship, and municipal sites.
