So, do you actually need our culvert maintenance services? The answer is a definite yes. If you own a property that happens to have a culvert on it, you need our culvert maintenance services. If you manage a municipality and do not have the proper equipment to do the job then you need our culvert maintenance services. As you may be aware, culverts serve an incredibly important purpose. In essence, they are tunnels that reroute flowing water, from rain storms and snow-melt runoff, under roadways, driveways, and railroad tracks.
Without culverts those roadways, driveways and railroad tracks would flood. When they do, it causes a great deal of damage, and can even completely destroy the roadways, driveways and railroad tracks. The flood water could also easily cause damage to the surrounding area including private property and city or town property. That means the flood water may very well cause tens of thousands if not hundreds of thousands of dollars or even more in damages. If the culvert that floods is located on private property, the owner is responsible to pay the costs of the damage and any fines or legal costs that are imposed.
The private property owner could also be responsible for any cleanup costs. If the culvert that floods is located on city or town property, and causes damage, the municipality is responsible for the property damage, fines, and cleanup costs. Most small towns and smaller cities across New England simply cannot afford for that to happen. They simply don’t have room in the budget. So, that money would need to come out of the school budget, or other important things like trash pickup, or road maintenance for example.
The good news is that our culvert maintenance services are affordable for both private property owners and municipalities, even if you’re on a tight budget. The bottom line is that we will clean up and clear any debris that is blocking or starting to block your culvert. However, there’s a lot more to cleaning and clearing when it comes to our culvert maintenance service. Our highly trained and experienced technicians will also inspect your culvert in order to see if there are any current problems or pending issues that will cause trouble. At that point, we can suggest the proper repairs that are needed to keep your culvert in tip-top shape.
