Parkade drain cleaning
Useful for strata and commercial buildings with trench drains, ramp drains, sump areas or repeated pooling before rain.

Hydro jetting and line flushing for storm drains that keep backing up.
Hydro jetting and line flushing for blocked storm lines, perimeter drains and downstream catch basin outlets across the Lower Mainland.
Site-confirmed scope
What starts with hydro jetting—and what depends on the line.
The starting scope is based on an accessible entry point, a line suitable for jetting and the restriction found. Vacuum support, specialized tooling and CCTV are added only when site conditions call for them.
- ✓Confirm the agreed access point and the storm line or outlet to be addressed
- ✓Select a jetting approach suited to the known line and restriction
- ✓Flush the reachable section and observe how the line responds
- ✓Stop and reassess if access, line condition or resistance makes continued jetting unsuitable
Starting check
Review access, known pipe details and where water or debris can discharge
Line work
High-pressure flushing of the agreed reachable storm-line section
If material collects
Vacuum removal may be scoped at an accessible downstream basin or collection point
If roots resist
Specialized root-cutting work is discussed only when the pipe and access are suitable
If it repeats
CCTV inspection may be considered after flow is restored
Scope is confirmed for the line. Pipe material, approximate diameter, access, debris type and downstream capture needs shape the visit. Root cutting, vacuum extraction, camera work and written records are not assumed unless discussed.
Flow restored but the cause is still unclear?
Jetting can move a restriction without showing the pipe condition behind it. If the backup repeats or structural damage is suspected, CCTV inspection may help document visible roots, offsets, bellies or cracks where the camera can reach.
Cleaned but still backing up?
Use the repeat-backup guide before guessing at the blockage.
Hydro jetting may be the next tool when a cleaned basin cannot move water through a suitable, accessible downstream storm line. The cleaned-but-still-backing-up guide explains when jetting should be paired with camera inspection, especially for repeat backups, root intrusion, pipe bellies or unknown outlet routes.

Have water collecting inside a parkade or underground lot?
Parkade trench drains, ramp drains and low-point catch basins need a slightly different checklist than an open parking lot. If water is near doors, elevator lobbies, electrical rooms or storage areas, use the parkade request path.
Cleaning or jetting?
If debris removal does not restore flow, the outlet line may need hydro jetting or camera inspection.

Questions before booking this service.
When is hydro jetting needed instead of standard catch basin cleaning?
If a cleared basin still holds water or backs up again, the downstream line may be restricted. Hydro jetting can be considered when movable sediment or debris is suspected inside a suitable, accessible pipe; known or possible structural damage may make camera inspection the better first step.
Will high-pressure jetting damage older clay or concrete storm pipes?
Jetting pressure and nozzle type are selected based on pipe material and diameter. Fragile or partially collapsed pipe sections are a reason to run a camera first — jetting into a structurally compromised line can worsen the damage. If there is any uncertainty about pipe condition, we recommend inspection before jetting.
Can you jet a perimeter drain or French drain on a strata property?
Sometimes. Perimeter drains, weeping tile and French drain systems may be suitable for flushing when there is a usable entry point and the known pipe condition supports it. Access, pipe size and condition are reviewed before a jetting run is included in the scope.
