CULVERT CLEANING

Culvert Cleaning

We don’t see them, but culverts play an important role in the transportation of water throughout our neighbourhoods, helping to keep excessive water from causing trouble. Usually situated in high-risk flood areas, they transport water under roads and underground. However, much like the drains in our homes and the pipes in our commercial properties, culverts need maintenance in order to keep them running as they should.

Unfortunately, culverts can become blocked from time to time, owing to a buildup of leaves, twigs, branches, mud and silt, as well as rubbish that has been illegally dumped. If not treated, these blockages can lead to a backup of water, which can cause said water to breach the surface and create serious issues for people and buildings around the affected area.
