Catch Basin Services in Columbus OH

We Can Solve Your Swampy Columbus Property Problem

Picture this: It's a rainy day in Columbus, and you're watching water pool in your yard. Or worse, it's creeping towards your home's foundation. Scary, right? That's where catch basins come in – they're like the unsung heroes of your property, quietly keeping water where it belongs. 


At Double B Excavation, we've seen it all – from flooded basements to muddy messes. We know how frustrating and costly water problems can be. But don't worry, we're here to help you keep your property high and dry. 


What's a Catch Basin? Think of it as a drain for your yard. It catches water and sends it away from your property. Without one, you might be looking at a muddy yard, a wet basement, or even damage to your home's foundation. Yikes!

Frequently Asked Questions

  • How much does catch basin installation typically cost? What affects the cost?

    Catch basin costs can range from $1,500 to $5,000 or more. The price depends on a few things:

    • Size of your property
    • How bad your drainage problems are
    • What's underground (like roots or old pipes)
    • The type of catch basin you need 

    We'll give you a fair quote after we check out your property. No surprises, we promise!

  • Do I need a permit to install a catch basin in Columbus, OH?

    Usually, yes. Columbus has rules about drainage work. But don't worry! We know all about local permits and can help you get what you need. We'll handle the paperwork so you don't have to stress about it.

  • How often should catch basins be maintained or cleaned?

    It's a good idea to check your catch basin twice a year, especially in fall and spring. If you have lots of trees, you might need to clean it more often. We can set up a maintenance plan to keep your catch basin working great all year round.

  • What are the signs that my property needs a catch basin?

    Watch out for these warning signs:

    • Puddles that stick around long after rain
    • Wet, soggy areas in your yard
    • Water getting close to your home's foundation
    • Erosion or wash-out areas
    • Flooded basements or crawl spaces 

    If you see any of these, give us a call. We'll check it out and let you know if a catch basin can help.

  • Are there different types of catch basins, and how do I know which one I need?

    Yes, there are different types! Some common ones are:

    • Grate inlets (good for driveways and parking lots)
    • Curb inlets (great for streets and roadways)
    • Area drains (perfect for yards and landscapes) 

    Don't worry about choosing - that's our job! We'll look at your property and suggest the best type for your needs.

  • Will installing a catch basin disrupt my landscaping?

    We try to keep disruption to a minimum. Yes, we'll need to dig, but we're careful and tidy. We'll work around your plants as much as we can. When we're done, we'll clean up and help get your yard looking good again. Your new, drier landscape will be worth it!

  • How long do catch basins typically last before needing replacement?

    A well-installed catch basin can last 25 to 50 years or even longer with proper care. Regular cleaning and maintenance can help it last even longer. If it's installed right the first time (that's where we come in!), you shouldn't have to worry about replacement for a long time.

  • Does Double B Excavation offer warranties on catch basin installation?

    You bet we do! We stand behind our work. We offer a 1-year warranty on our installations. This covers any issues that might come up due to our work. We also use high-quality materials that often come with their own warranties. We'll go over all the details with you before we start the job.
