Catch Basin Repairs Syracuse NY
Anyone who owns a parking lot or similar space knows that it is challenging to drain water. Water tends to pool in low spaces. It is important to eliminate water from your parking lot as moisture is one of the leading factors of asphalt / concrete deterioration. Catch basins are used to help with the drainage of water off of the lot’s surface. Since large amounts of water traveling to the catch basins often prove harmful, catch basins are typically one of the first areas of parking lot problems.
What are Catch Basins And Why Do They Fail?
Catch basins work as a drainage system for your parking lot. They are built into an asphalt or concrete parking lot to redirect storm water.
All catch basins will settle or deteriorate over time. As water enters the basin, the joints between the frame and grate casting, blocks or mortar joints becomes weak. The water will eventually disintegrate the mortar. It's very simple.
When this happens, especially during the colder months, the water will expand and contract in the openings. This causes the mortar to “pop out”. This can cause a large issue in your parking lot.
In addition, cracks can appear around the perimeter of the catch basin and allow water to infiltrate the casting.
The technical stuff:
If either of the above happens, the catch basin may begin to settle around the perimeter. This will further allow standing water to accumulate.
If its winter, the standing water will freeze, and may become a potential liability.
At this point the asphalt around the basin may begin to see some cracking. As the cracks continue to spread outward the asphalt will begin to deteriorate.
The casting may settle as the mortar “pops out” and an asphalt lip may appear. This will cause a tripping hazard. This happened because a section of the casting or wedge blocks may have fallen out from normal parking lot traffic . Worst case, the top row of block may completely fail and allow the casting to cave in.
Catch Basin Deterioration
The average catch basin is built with a concrete box, a steel frame, a grate, riser rings, and a special reducer top. The asphalt eventually shrinks from the frames and water flows through the opened spaces. Since Florida has a heavy rainy season in microbursts, compromised asphalt at catch basins will eventually worsen if left unattended. The presence of a damaged catch basin can cause asphalt to cave in and cause concrete failure.
Catch Basin Repairs
Repair your aged or damage catch basin and prevent more costly repairs. The repair will also reduce the chance of vehicles being damaged in your parking lot.
Begin by having an experienced paving contractor like Syracuse Concrete inspect the area. This analysis will indicate the extent of the damage. The grate will be removed to permit access to the inner portion of the concrete casting. Our team will perform an inspection and take appropriate pictures.
If a repair is necessary, the outside of the catch basin will be saw cut between one and two feet from the frame. The asphalt will be extracted to the appropriate level. In some instances, the bricks can be left in place. In others, the full frame and grate must be taken out. They will be removed along with needed rows of blocks if the casting is collapsed.
Our team will install new blocks for improved elevation. We will pour new mortar that blocks the water. The interior may require mortar to seal joints and other fissures to block additional water from intruding.
The grate and frame will be put back in on the casting. The job culminates with patching the perimeter of the catch basin with concrete or asphalt.
Our catch basin repair services can be as simple as patching the asphalt around the perimeter with a quick mortar repair, or we could provide an in-depth scope and complete structure rebuild. Either way, we will get your catch basin working.
We are available 24/7 for all of you Syracuse Catch Basin repairs. Most repairs can be completed within 24-48 hours of calling. Call us today for a free evaluation. and estimate!
