Catch Basin Cleaning Highlight Trucking Repair Shop in Vaughan

Highlight Trucking, a busy truck repair shop in Vaughan, was experiencing drainage issues in their service bays and parking area. Heavy oil and grease buildup had clogged both their trench drains and outdoor catch basins.

The Problem

Truck repair shops generate significant oil, grease, and chemical runoff. Highlight Trucking’s trench drains inside the service bays were draining slowly, and the outdoor catch basins had a thick layer of solidified oil restricting water flow. Standing water in the work area created a safety hazard for mechanics.

Our Approach

This job required hydrovac jetting to break up the hardened oil and grease deposits that a standard vacuum could not remove. We systematically cleaned every trench drain and catch basin on the property, using high-pressure heated water to dissolve oil deposits before extracting all material.

The Result

Drainage was fully restored in both the indoor service bays and outdoor areas. All waste — including the oil and grease — was transported to a licensed disposal facility. We recommended quarterly service given the heavy oil exposure, and Highlight Trucking signed up for a maintenance contract.
