Excess rainwater and stormwater runoff can cause serious problems if not managed properly-flooding, erosion, pavement damage, and even foundation issues. A catch pit (sometimes called a stormwater pit or sump pit) is designed to trap debris, silt, and sediment before water flows into the drainage system. At Blueline, we specialize in catch pit installation services that keep your drainage system efficient and long-lasting.
A catch pit is an underground chamber that collects stormwater runoff while allowing heavier materials - like sand, gravel, and debris - to settle at the bottom. Clean water then flows into connected drainage pipes or stormwater systems.
