French Drain & Outdoor Drain Cleaning

Standing Water? Slow Yard Drains? We Can Get Things Flowing Again.

Florida’s heavy rain, sandy soil, tree roots, leaves and landscaping debris can take a toll on outdoor drainage systems. Over time, French drains, yard drains, pool deck drains and underground drainage pipes can become packed with sediment and debris, causing slow drainage, standing water and flooding around your property.

SWFL 24 Rooter & Drain provides professional outdoor drain cleaning and hydro jetting to help restore flow and get your drainage system working again.

Why Outdoor Drains Become Clogged

Outdoor drainage systems deal with much more than water. Dirt, sand, mulch, leaves, grass, roots and other organic material can enter the system and gradually restrict the pipe.

You may have a drainage blockage if you notice:

• Water pooling in the yard after heavy rain

• French drains that no longer seem to work

• Water backing up from an outdoor drain

• Slow-draining pool decks or lanais

• Overflowing catch basins

• Soggy areas that take too long to dry

• Water collecting near your home or foundation

• Drain outlets with little or no water coming out

• Recurring outdoor flooding during Florida storms

Don’t automatically assume your drainage system needs to be replaced. The problem may simply be a clogged or heavily restricted drainage line.

Hydro Jetting for French Drains & Outdoor Drainage

When appropriate for the existing drainage system, we use professional hydro jetting equipment to send high-pressure water through the drainage line.

Unlike simply pushing through a blockage, hydro jetting can help break apart and flush accumulated:

Sand • Dirt • Mud • Sediment • Leaves • Sludge • Mulch • Organic Debris • Root Intrusion

Our technicians can use specialized jetting nozzles designed to clean the drainage pipe and move loosened material toward an accessible discharge point.

Don’t Replace It Until We Try to Clean It.

A poorly draining French drain or yard drain doesn’t necessarily mean you need to excavate your property and install an entirely new drainage system.

When the existing piping is structurally sound, professional cleaning may be able to restore substantial flow without digging up the entire system.

Cleaning first could save you hundreds or even thousands compared with unnecessary excavation and replacement.

Camera Inspection Available

When the drainage system and access allow it, we can use professional drain-camera equipment to investigate what’s happening underground.

A camera inspection may help us identify:

• Heavy sediment buildup

• Root intrusion

• Crushed or damaged piping

• Separated connections

• Standing water inside the pipe

• Severe restrictions

• Improper drainage or pipe conditions

This allows us to determine whether cleaning is the right solution or whether a section of the drainage system may require repair.

Outdoor Drain Problems Can Get Worse During Heavy Rain

A partially restricted drain may appear to work during a light shower but become overwhelmed during one of Southwest Florida’s heavy downpours.

That’s why it can be smart to address slow outdoor drainage before the next major storm.
