Garage drain cleaning
Cleaning and unclogging of garage drains
An essential maintenance service for safe and functional facilities
Cleaning and unclogging garage drains are essential to ensure efficient drainage and prevent blockages, unpleasant odors, and damage to piping. Whether for residential garages, commercial garages, underground parking facilities, or mechanical garages, Sanivac handles the cleaning, unclogging, and maintenance of your drainage systems. Over time, drains accumulate residues such as grease, oil, limescale, sand, and debris, which can cause clogs, cracks, and leaks. Thanks to our specialized equipment and recognized expertise, we provide deep cleaning that restores proper flow and protects your installations over the long term.
Prevent clogs, odors, and damage
Why maintain garage drains?
Regular maintenance of garage drains helps prevent the buildup of residues that can interfere with proper drainage system operation. Grease, oils, mineral deposits, and sediments carried in by vehicles accumulate quickly and can clog pipes, causing backups, cracks, and water infiltration.
Sanivac recommends:
- a cleaning every six months for residential garages,
- cleaning every six months for commercial garages,
- up to four times per year for mechanical garages and car washes.
This preventive approach helps maintain efficient drainage, prevent unpleasant odors, and avoid costly repairs.
Cleaning and inspection of pipes
A thorough, targeted deep cleaning
Our teams use high-pressure cleaning equipment and specialized vacuum systems to effectively remove buildup from drains and pipes. This method ensures thorough cleaning of internal walls, dislodges stubborn residues, and restores full flow capacity.
When required, we also perform camera inspections to precisely locate blockages, cracks, or problem areas. This technology enables targeted and efficient intervention, ensuring proper operation of your drainage system.
Specialists in underground garages and confined spaces
Trucks designed for limited-access areas
Cleaning drains in underground garages presents unique challenges, particularly due to height restrictions. To address this, Sanivac has invested in a fleet of low-profile trucks specifically designed to access confined spaces.
Our vehicles can operate in areas with a minimum clearance of 6 feet 2 inches, allowing on-site cleaning and pumping without compromising equipment power or quality. This unique capability enables us to efficiently service underground garages, condominiums, and parking facilities with limited access.
