Storm Drain Sumps & Drains

The Purpose of Storm Drains

Storm drains and sumps are primarily used to collect pavement runoff water to prevent it from collecting on the surface of roads and sidewalks. The purpose of storm drains is to direct water flow away from the streets and sidewalks to a nearby water source such as a lake, river, or ocean. Storm drains both create safer road conditions and protect your yard and driveway from flooding with water during a heavy downpour.

When Damage Occurs

The most common issue behind pavement deterioration is water collection on the surface. Moisture damage caused by improper drainage decreases the strength and durability of asphalt. Asphalt left vulnerable to excessive moisture for too long can develop potholes and other deterioration. Eckles Paving also provides asphalt maintenance services for roads and parking lots that have been damaged by excessive water collection. However, proper installation of storm drains and sumps will decrease the risk of asphalt cracking and rutting.

Storm Drain Installation

Storm drains are constructed by either tying into an existing storm drain system or creating a new drain field area below grade (sump). Drains need to be placed in the correct areas of the pavement in order to achieve proper sloping into the new drain. Storm drain systems are separate from sewage systems and are not designed to remove pollutants.

With offices in Utah County, Salt Lake City, Park City, Ogden, and Logan, Eckles Paving works with home and business owners and landlords throughout Utah to determine the best use of storm drains and sumps to meet their individual needs. The professionals at Eckles Paving will ensure your drains have optimal placement to achieve effective sloping.

Eckles Paving has done a lot of work for me. I have had nothing but good service from them. They do most all of the asphalt patch work I need done around the city. They have also done full reconstruction projects with us. Their crews are courteous to the residents they come into contact with. They do excellent work. I highly recommend them.

WHAT OUR CUSTOMERS ARE SAYING

In 2016 - 2017 we have built 7 Quick Quack Car Washes along the Wasatch Front. We have had the need to do some asphalt work on the different sites. And each time the need has come up, we have called on Eckles Paving to get the job done. The job has always been completed to our high standards. I cannot say enough great things about this company. Very pleasant to deal with. I would refer them to anyone that ask.

Mark L. – Retail

To deal with a company that does what they say they will is a pleasure. What really astounded me in today's world was the quality and efficiency of their work crews, which happens as a prep/road base crew 1st and then an asphalt crew. Both crews ran like clockwork and you could watch how each man knew what to do and did it right. My job was done very well, and they cleaned up the road after. I would certainly recommend anyone to Eckles Paving anytime

My parking lot Super Hero's! Eckles paving was Fair, Fast and Friendly! never had so much fun replacing a parking lot! I'm being totally serious. Attention to detail, easy to work with and competitive in price set them apart. I shopped four other companies and I'm so happy I went with Eckles. Amazing experience! They had my 4,000+ sq. ft. parking lot demoed, regraded, paved and striped at Super Hero Speed!

I trust Eckles completely. They are honest and fair. If you’re getting quotes that are substantially different than theirs, do some research to find out why. There are a lot of shortcuts that vendors can take to shave money off, but for an asset that is this big, you need someone to be honest with you!
