Invictus HYDROVAC
Catch Basin Cleaning in Surrey, BC
Full-depth sump cleaning and condition reporting for commercial and industrial catch basins across Surrey.
Large Lots, Few Basins, No Margin for Error
Schedule a property assessment before surface failures become liability issues. Downtown Seattle properties on our preservation program get priority scheduling and proactive service throughout the year.
What Fills a Surrey Catch Basin
Surrey basins fill with heavier material than downtown basins do, and they fill faster.
Yard traffic tracks sand, gravel and soil across industrial lots in Newton, Port Kells and Bridgeview. Retail sites in Guildford and Newton collect grit from constant vehicle movement across very large parking fields. Where a neighbouring site is under construction, silt arrives in volume with every rainfall.
Signs a Surrey basin is overdue:
- Standing water across a wide area of the lot after moderate rain
- Sediment within six inches of the lowest pipe in the sump
- Gravel and soil visible in the inlet throat
- A frame that has settled below the surrounding asphalt
- Repeat pooling in the same low corner every season
We vacuum the full sump depth on every basin on the property in one visit, not just the one that flooded. With the sump empty we report cracked walls, failed grout, settled frames and damaged pipe connections.
Why Surrey Sites Trust Our Basin Work
Thirty years maintaining commercial property in the Pacific Northwest, with ISO 9001 and SN 9001 certification behind the work.
Proven Track Record
On large Surrey sites the basin that floods is rarely the only one that is full. We work the whole network on a single visit so the property is cleared as a system, which is cheaper than three call-outs across one wet season.
Consistent Quality Standards
Recovered sediment and water leave the site in the vacuum tank and go to an authorized receiving facility. Every visit closes with a record of the structures serviced, their condition, and the disposal of the material.
Certified Operations
Invictus is the first and only company in the Pacific Northwest to hold ISO 9001 and SN 9001 certification for property services. Our crews are ASCA and SIMA trained and certified.
Equipment Built for Commercial Systems
High-production hydrovac units with pressure matched to the pipe material and the condition of the structure. Large systems are cleared in a single visit rather than over several return trips.
How Our Hydrovac Service Works
01.
Site Assessment
We walk the property, lift grates, measure sediment depth in every basin and trace the lines between them. You get the condition of the whole system before any work is quoted.
02.
Jetting and Vacuum Recovery
High-pressure water cuts through sediment, sludge and root intrusion while the vacuum unit recovers everything it loosens. Nothing is pushed further down the system to settle somewhere else.
03.
Inspection, Disposal and Report
With the structures empty we record their condition, then the recovered material leaves the site for an authorized disposal facility. You receive a record of what was serviced and where the waste went.

Frequently Asked Questions
How many basins does a typical Surrey site have?
Large retail and industrial lots often run twenty or more. We check sediment depth in all of them and tell you which are due, rather than cleaning only the one that flooded.
Construction next door keeps silting our basins. What can we do?
Shorten the cycle while the work is ongoing. Construction silt arrives in volume with every rainfall and will fill a sump in weeks rather than months.
What is the difference between this and having the lot swept?
Sweeping removes material from the surface. It does not touch what has already settled in the sump, which is where the blockage forms.
How long does a large Surrey property take?
Usually a full crew day for a site with twenty or more basins. We confirm the count and the schedule at the site evaluation.
