Out of Sight Shouldn't Mean Out of Mind
Most infrastructure problems start underground, where sediment, debris, and root intrusion quietly build up until systems fail.
The risk isn’t just flooding — it’s liability, environmental damage, operational downtime, and the compounding cost of deferred maintenance. When problems finally surface, they’re expensive, disruptive, and often avoidable.
Before: Incomplete cleanings, uncertainty
Thoroughness matters because partial cleaning just delays failure. Debris pushed downstream creates new blockages. Roots left behind regenerate faster. Systems that look clear on the surface continue degrading underneath.
Dual-Action Cleaning Built for Complete Results
Shenandoah’s cleaning services eliminate risks before they escalate. Our combination of high-performance jet-vac equipment, experienced field crews, and proactive maintenance programs keeps stormwater and sanitary systems flowing freely, so you avoid emergency calls, minimize liability, and protect the communities and assets you manage.
The Whole is More Than The Sum of Its Parts
Cleaning identifies problems. Inspection confirms their scope. Rehabilitation fixes them for the long term. When one team handles all three, nothing gets lost in translation—and accountability never shifts.
How We Keep Systems Flowing
Shenandoah deploys the right equipment and methodology based on system type, diameter, and debris conditions.
Clear Access Points, Prevent System-Wide Failures
Your First Line of Defense
Catch basins and storm drains are the entry points for stormwater runoff. When sediment, debris, and garbage accumulate, they block flow, cause localized flooding, and introduce pollutants into lakes and rivers.
Why It Matters
The Hidden Cost of Neglect
Neglected catch basins don’t just flood parking lots. They degrade water quality, increase liability, and shorten system lifespan. Regular cleaning prevents blockages, protects the environment, and maintains the integrity of your entire drainage system. It’s a small investment that avoids costly emergencies, extends infrastructure life, and keeps operations running without disruption.
When Cleaning Is Needed
We Specialize in Every Stage of Intervention
- Routine Maintenance: Annual or bi-annual cleaning prevents buildup, detects early damage, and maintains system integrity.
- Post-Construction: Remove sediment and construction debris left behind after site work is complete.
- Emergency Response: When flooding occurs, rapid mobilization clears blockages and restores drainage quickly.
How We Clean
High-Performance Equipment That Delivers
We combine jet-vac trucks and high-velocity water jetting with industrial vacuum systems to break up and extract debris from catch basins and storm drains. Sediment, sludge, rocks, and grease are removed and properly disposed of, leaving systems clear and ready for the next storm event.
Restore Flow, Prevent Blockages, Extend System Life
When Blockages Build Silently
Pipeline blockages from grease, roots, sediment, and construction residue restrict flow gradually, reducing capacity until systems fail under normal demand. Jet-vac technology targets these obstructions with dual-action cleaning: pressurized water jetting (up to 4,000 PSI) breaks up even hardened deposits, while vacuum systems rated for heavy debris extract material completely and deposit it in sealed tanks for proper disposal.
The Right Equipment for the Job
Fleet-Ready for Any Diameter
Shenandoah’s jet-vac fleet is purpose-built for pipeline cleaning across all diameters and conditions. High-pressure water jetting breaks up obstructions, while powerful vacuum systems extract debris and deposit it in sealed holding tanks for proper disposal.
What We Remove
No Blockage Left Behind
- Roots and Vegetation: Robotic cutter systems paired with CCTV guidance remove root masses and smooth pipe interiors without damaging infrastructure.
- Grease and Sludge: High-pressure hydro jetting liquefies buildup and flushes it into larger collection points for removal.
- Sediment and Solid Debris: Vacuum extraction pulls material back to access points, preventing downstream blockages.
- Construction Residue: Concrete, lime, and calcite deposits are broken up and cleared using targeted cutting and jetting techniques.
Visual Proof of Performance
Documentation That Drives Decisions
Every cleaning project includes CCTV video inspection before and after work is complete. Pre-inspection identifies blockage type, location, and severity. Post-inspection confirms complete removal and verifies system restoration.
This visual documentation supports compliance, capital planning, and future maintenance with proof instead of assumptions, giving clients a clear record of what was found and what was fixed.
