Stormwater Tanks We Maintain

Our team provides professional maintenance for a wide range of stormwater storage and detention systems. We tailor every maintenance program to the tank design, site conditions, and operational requirements.

Stormwater Tank Sediment & Debris Removal

Sediment and debris naturally accumulate in stormwater tanks over time, reducing storage capacity and restricting water flow.

Our sediment and debris removal services include: 

Regular sediment and debris removal extends the life of your stormwater system and helps keep it operating safely and efficiently. 

Stormwater Tank Cleaning

Regular stormwater tank cleaning removes contaminants that affect system performance and water quality. 

Our stormwater tank cleaning services include:

Professional stormwater tank cleaning helps restore system efficiency, protect infrastructure, and support long-term asset performance. 

Manual Tank Cleaning

Our technicians enter the tank where safe to remove sediment, sludge, and debris using specialised cleaning equipment.

ROV Tank Cleaning (No Draining Required)

Using a remotely operated vehicle (ROV), we can inspect and clean many tanks without draining the stored water, reducing downtime and maintaining operational continuity.

High-Pressure Water Cleaning

We use high-pressure water jetting to remove stubborn deposits from internal tank surfaces, pipework, and critical components.

Our cleaning methods are tailored to your stormwater system, ensuring efficient maintenance with minimal disruption to your operations. 

Stormwater Tank Cleaning Methods

Different tanks require different cleaning methods depending on their size, condition, and accessibility. We select the safest and most effective approach for each maintenance project. 

Recommended Stormwater Tank Maintenance Schedule

Regular maintenance intervals vary depending on the asset type, site conditions, and system usage. The table below provides general maintenance recommendations for common stormwater assets. 

Maintenance TaskTypical FrequencyPurpose
Tank inspectionEvery 6–12 monthsIdentify defects and maintenance needs
Sediment removalAs requiredMaintain storage capacity
Tank cleaningEvery 1–3 yearsImprove water quality and system performance
GPT cleaningEvery 3–6 monthsPrevent blockages
Silt trap cleaningEvery 3–6 monthsRemove accumulated debris
Preventive maintenanceAnnuallyImprove long-term asset performance

Maintenance frequencies should always be based on inspection results, environmental conditions, and site-specific operational requirements. Read our stormwater tank maintenance guide to learn how to develop an effective maintenance program.

How often should a stormwater tank be maintained?

Most commercial stormwater tanks should be inspected and maintained at least annually. Higher-use sites or systems with heavy sediment loads may require more frequent servicing.

Stormwater tank maintenance typically includes inspections, sediment removal, debris cleaning, silt trap servicing, inlet and outlet checks, and detailed maintenance reporting. 

Yes. Where suitable, we use remotely operated vehicle (ROV) technology to inspect and clean tanks without draining the stored water.

Stormwater tank cleaning includes removing sediment, sludge, leaves, organic debris, and other contaminants. It may also include cleaning inlet and outlet structures and flushing accessible pipework.
