Structure-level cleaning, not just a clear grate
A catch basin collects water at the surface and holds sediment below the outlet. Clearing leaves off the grate can help water enter, but it leaves the material in the sump. Our vactor truck removes that material from the structure instead of pushing it into the next pipe run. We check the inlet, walls, sump and accessible outlet so the report explains what was cleaned and what still needs attention.
For HOA and condo boards, this is planned upkeep of common-area inlets and roadway drainage. For plazas and parking lots, it addresses the sediment, litter and landscape debris that collect around busy drive lanes. Municipalities can use the same structure-by-structure records for maintenance tracking. We coordinate access with the site contact before bringing the truck onto the property.
A record for every basin
We locate the structures, photograph their condition, vacuum the sump and check accessible flow paths. Where a short flush is appropriate, we use it to check the outlet rather than treat it as full pipe-network cleaning. The final photo report identifies the cleaned structures and any visible damage or remaining obstruction. Waste leaves the site with disposal documentation.
If the sump is clean but water still backs up, the connecting pipes may need storm drain cleaning or a camera inspection. We explain that distinction before expanding the job.
Typical pricing
Pricing moves with debris load, structure depth, and access, not with a flat menu. See what catch basin cleaning costs in South Florida for the per-structure brackets we actually quote from.
We run crews daily throughout Broward County, Palm Beach County, and Miami-Dade County. If your basins feed a permitted system, the same visit can produce the documentation your 5-year drainage recertification requires.

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.Carlos MartinezApartment community, MiramarGoogle review
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.Adel SalomonHospital campusGoogle review excerpt
Pricing was the same number they quoted. That's harder to find than it should be.Facilities DirectorOffice park, Broward
