What affects a catch-basin cleaning quote?
The number, size and depth of basins, sediment volume, blockages, truck access and disposal requirements all matter. Provide a site plan and identify basins that are difficult to reach or have known drainage problems.
Does cleaning a basin include flushing connected pipes?
Not by default. Basin vacuuming, pipe flushing, blockage investigation and structural repairs are different tasks. Specify which drainage problems need assessment so the quote separates them clearly.
How should a property prepare for the visit?
Identify and mark the basins, arrange vehicle access and clear parked cars from the work area. Agree traffic management and access timing with the site contact before the service window.
