Why It Matters

In Florida, a Blocked Storm Drain Can Cause Serious Damage Fast

Central Florida gets an average of over 50 inches of rain a year, and much of it comes in sudden, heavy downpours. When your storm drains are working, water moves off your property and into the drainage system as it’s designed to. When they’re blocked, it pools.

Standing water in your yard, driveway, or near your foundation isn’t just inconvenient. It can erode landscaping, damage driveways and walkways, attract mosquitoes, and, in serious cases, find its way into your home. The longer the drain stays blocked, the worse the problem gets.

That’s why keeping your storm drains clear isn’t just maintenance; it’s protection.

What We Service

Every Type of Storm Drain on Your Property

Storm drainage systems come in different forms depending on the property. We’re equipped to clean and clear all of them.

Catch Basins

The grated drains typically found at curbs, in parking areas, and at low points in your yard. They collect surface water and channel it underground. We remove accumulated debris, sediment, and blockages from the basin and the connecting pipe.

Yard and Property Drains

French drains, channel drains, and pop-up emitters that manage water flow across your property. When these clog with dirt, roots, or debris, water pools where it shouldn’t. We clear the line and restore proper flow.

Culverts and Driveway Drains

Pipes that run under driveways, roads, or pathways to carry water from one side to the other. Sediment, leaves, and debris can block these over time, causing water to back up and flood the surface above.

Curb Inlets and Street-Level Drains

Openings along curbs and streets designed to capture rainwater runoff. Leaf buildup, trash, and sediment can quickly block these, especially during storm season. We vacuum them out and make sure water can flow freely.

Our Equipment

Professional Equipment for the Job

Storm drain cleaning requires heavier equipment than standard household drain work. Our service truck is purpose-built for this.

Vacuum Truck

Our truck-mounted vacuum system generates industrial-strength suction to remove sediment, debris, leaves, gravel, and standing water from catch basins, pipes, and drains. It handles the heavy material that hand tools and standard equipment can’t.

High-Pressure Jetting

For pipes and lines clogged with compacted sediment or root growth, we use high-pressure water jetting to break up and flush the obstruction. This restores full flow through the pipe without digging or excavation.

Full Debris Removal

Everything we remove from your drains leaves with us. We don’t leave piles of sediment or debris on your property. When we’re done, your drains will be clear, and your property will be clean.

When to Schedule Storm Drain Cleaning

Signs Your Storm Drains Need Attention

Don’t wait for a flood to find out your drains aren’t working. If you notice any of the following, give us a call.

Water pools in your yard or driveway during or after rain

If water isn’t draining within a reasonable time after a storm, something is likely blocked downstream.

A storm drain grate is visibly clogged with leaves or debris

Surface debris is often a sign that there’s more buildup below the grate, inside the basin or pipe.

Water is backing up near your foundation

This is one of the more serious signs. Water that can’t drain away from your home may eventually find a way in.

You see erosion around drain areas

When water overflows instead of draining, it washes away soil and landscaping. This is a clear sign the drain isn’t doing its job.

It’s been more than a year since your storm drains were cleaned

Florida’s combination of heavy rain, sandy soil, and organic debris means storm drains can fill up faster than you’d expect. Annual cleaning keeps things flowing.

You’ve received a notice from your HOA or local municipality

If you’ve been notified about a drainage issue on your property, we can clear it quickly and help you stay in compliance.

Common Questions About Storm Drain Cleaning

USA Drain Cleaning is a locally owned residential drain service company based in Eustis, FL. We provide storm drain cleaning, residential drain cleaning, and video drain inspection throughout Lake County, including Mount Dora, Tavares, Leesburg, and Lady Lake.

Storm drains collect rainwater runoff and, over time, also accumulate leaves, dirt, sand, gravel, mulch, and other debris. In Florida, the combination of heavy seasonal rain and organic material means storm drains can clog faster than in drier climates. Tree roots can also grow into connecting pipes.

For most residential properties in Central Florida, annual storm drain cleaning is a good baseline. Properties with heavy tree cover, low-lying areas, or a history of drainage issues may benefit from cleaning twice a year, especially before and after the rainy season.

Yes. When a storm drain is blocked, rainwater has nowhere to go. It pools on the surface and can flood yards, driveways, walkways, and — in severe cases — enter your home. Clearing the drain before heavy rains is the best prevention.

Our primary focus is residential properties, but we also serve small commercial properties and HOA common areas in Lake County. Call us, and we’ll let you know if we can help with your specific situation.

We use a truck-mounted vacuum system to extract debris and sediment from catch basins and drains, and high-pressure water jetting to clear clogged pipes and lines. This is professional-grade equipment designed specifically for storm drainage work.
