Catch basin repairs can range in magnitude but addressing the issue as soon as it’s noticed will reduce liability and repair costs.

What Causes Catch Basins to Collapse?
Over time blocks and bricks used to construct your catch basins will begin to fail and deteriorate. This is mainly due to erosion. If there’s damaged asphalt or cracked concrete surrounding your catch basin, it may be time to call our commercial asphalt maintenance contractors for catch basin repair.
In order to prevent a costly repair, we recommend that you get the problem fixed as soon as you see signs of failure. Once the blocks and bricks are deteriorated, the main structure is no longer secured. Cars driving, parking over them, or even snowplows hitting them will create more stress on the steel grates which will make the entire top structure sink, creating more liability.
Signs You Need Catch Basin Repair
Catch basins play a critical role in managing stormwater on commercial properties, but when they start to fail, they can create safety hazards and accelerate asphalt damage. If the structure surrounding your catch basin is deteriorating or misaligned, it’s time to act. Early signs of failure are often visible and should be addressed before they lead to more expensive repairs or drainage issues.
You might want to schedule repairs if your catch basin has:
- Sunken or settling areas around the basin
- Grates higher than the pavement
- Visible cracks or holes in or around the basin
- Standing water after rain
- Rust, corrosion, or loose grates
If you’ve noticed any of these warning signs, it’s best to have the area(s) inspected and repaired by our local catch basin repair contractors. Ignoring the problem can lead to bigger drainage failures, compromised pavement, and liability concerns for your business. Should an older catch basin be beyond repair, we can completely dig out and rebuild the area.
