Catch Basin & Drain Install & Repair
Standing water in a commercial parking lot isn’t just a nuisance — it’s accelerating your pavement’s deterioration from the moment it pools. Water that can’t drain properly infiltrates asphalt cracks, saturates the base material, and turns minor surface issues into structural failures that cost far more to repair than a properly functioning drainage system would have cost to install or maintain. For commercial properties throughout Newnan, GA, SouthEast Pavement Inc. provides catch basin installation, drain repair, and drainage system solutions that eliminate water management problems and protect your pavement investment long-term.
Signs Your Drainage System Needs Attention
Commercial parking lot drainage problems are often visible — but their consequences extend well beneath the surface. If you’re seeing any of these conditions on your property, a drainage assessment is overdue.
- Chronic Standing Water – Areas that pool after every rain event and take hours or days to drain
- Pavement Failure Near Drains – Accelerated cracking, sinking, or deterioration in areas around existing catch basins
- Clogged or Slow-Draining Basins – Catch basins that fill with debris and back up, preventing drainage during rain events
- Damaged Basin Frames or Grates – Cracked, shifted, or broken cast iron grates that create trip hazards and vehicle damage risk
- Sunken Basin Areas – Pavement settling and sinking around existing catch basins from base erosion beneath
- Overland Flow Paths – Water sheeting across lot surfaces into building entrances or adjacent properties due to inadequate inlets

Our Drainage Assessment and Repair Process

Our proposals detail exactly what’s being done, why, and what it costs, with one-click access to site photos and property maps.
- Drainage System Assessment – Evaluate all basins, inlets, drain lines, and pavement conditions across the property
- Problem Area Documentation – Site photos, maps, and condition notes for every identified drainage issue
- Prioritized Repair Scope – Work items organized by urgency and cost-effectiveness for your budget planning

Frequently Asked Questions
How do I know if my catch basins need replacement or just cleaning?
We assess this during our site evaluation. Basins that are structurally intact but clogged with sediment typically need cleaning. Basins with cracked walls, failed connections, or deteriorated frames typically require reconstruction. We’ll document the condition of every basin and give you a clear recommendation.
Can drainage issues cause pavement failure?
Yes — this is one of the most common causes of commercial asphalt failure. Water that pools on the surface infiltrates through cracks, saturates the base material, and causes the pavement above to sink, crack, and collapse. Fixing drainage is often the only way to stop recurring pavement failure in affected areas.
