Our basement floor drain backed up on a Sunday. PlusFlow called back quickly, cleared the line and showed us on camera what caused it. Clear explanation, no pressure, and they left everything clean.

Service · Calgary
Calgary's spring melt and summer storms put real pressure on storm drainage. We clean and inspect catch basins, storm lines and weeping tile connections so water is carried away from your property instead of pooling around it.
Overview
Storm drainage carries rain and snowmelt away from your building through catch basins, area drains, downspout connections and storm lines. When those fill with sediment and debris, water pools — on parking lots, against foundations and in low spots.
We clean catch basins, jet storm lines and inspect them on camera so stormwater keeps moving, especially through Calgary's spring melt and summer storm season.

No clear, no clearing charge
On eligible standard blockages.
Spot Problems Early
Problems build up gradually. Watch for these warning signs before a small issue becomes a backup.
Water sitting on lots, driveways or yards.
Grates that take a long time to drain.
Leaves, gravel and litter covering inlets.
Standing water that freezes into hazards in winter.
Moisture against walls or seeping into basements.
Can signal a broken storm line below.
Root Causes
Understanding the cause is how we stop a problem from coming back — not just clear it for today.
01Winter sanding washes straight into catch basins.
02Fall leaves pack inlets and lines.
03Storm lines are just as vulnerable to roots as sewers.
04Frost heave and heavy traffic crack older storm lines.
