The Importance of Cleaning Your Catch Basin

A catch basin is the drain on your property that collects rainwater from your yard or the street and directs it into the towns stormwater systems. It is a concrete pit with a metal grating at the top. The catch basin can have a square, rectangular, or circular opening. Inside the catch basin receptacle, there are two openings: an inlet and an outlet.

Catch basin cleaning
is an important part of your home’s overall sewer system maintenance. In order to avoid any blockage within a storm sewer and to lessen the flow of obstructions, cleaning out your catch basin is critical. These obstructions run the risk of being discharged into your towns waterways and streams. 

A few benefits of cleaning a catch basin regularly:

Prevent flooding

Preserve your family’s health

Prevent foul odors around your home


How are catch basins cleaned?

Pumping out a catch basin involves the removal of debris and obstruction that have accumulated in the basin over the course of time. With the help of an oversized vacuum pump truck, we can easily suck out any liquids in the catch basin. Much like a regular vacuum cleaner, but on a much larger scale. In some cases, solids build up in the catch basin and we are unable to pump the solid materials out. We can either add water to the basin to try and liquify the solids or we can also go the route of a manual catch basin cleaning after we first pump out any liquids that we can.  For the deep cleaning jobs we bring in our sewer rodding or hydro-jetting services.  

If your Chicagoland catch basin gets clogged and overflows, it could flood into your basement and become costly for you. Give The Sewer Experts a call to get your catch basin flowing smoothly again.
