Manhole cleaning & structure vacuuming

We vacuum out storm and sanitary manholes across South Florida — removing sediment, grit, grease shelf, and debris that restrict flow and hide structural defects. Every clean-out is photo-documented with a before/after depth measurement and a licensed-hauler disposal manifest, so the record satisfies MS4, DERM, and O&M audits.
