Sump pits are settling and catchment basins for solids, sludge and waste, preventing this debris from reaching the main drains and sewers. It’s normal and necessary to have all catch basins on your properties, underground garages, parking lots and roads cleaned before the sediment level reaches the bottom of the outlet drain.
Consequences of neglecting sump cleaning
Techniques and equipment are making a big difference in the maintenance of sumps and sewers. Whereas traditional cleaning services require time and manpower, today a pump truck automates the entire sanitary process. The versatility of our equipment will help you avoid unfortunate consequences.
Clogged pit
If not cleaned regularly, a sump pit will continue to accumulate water and debris, and may eventually clog.
Overflow and flooding
When a sump pit is clogged, it can overflow and flood your basement with foul water.
This not only costs money to clean out the sump, but also to repair walls or floors damaged by the flooding.
Unpleasant odours
Failure to maintain the sump pit can lead to strong odors over time, and the whole basement could become a stenchy mess.
General cleaning process
Drainavac can provide you with a professional sump and sewer cleaning service.
Step 1: Inspection
We’ll examine the condition of your sump pump’s normal operation. A problem can have several causes:
- a broken pipe
- a blocked valve
- a defective or damaged pump.
Step 2: Cleaning
To properly clean your home’s sump pump, we’ll need to remove all accumulated dirt, grit and debris. By doing so, we’ll increase your system’s efficiency and extend its life considerably.
Step 3: Rehabilitation
Once your sump pit has been cleaned, our team will install corrosion-resistant parts to replace the defective elements of your sanitary installation. Equipment that is still in good condition can be cleaned and reused.
