When heavy rain, landscape runoff, or property drainage issues cause standing water, a properly installed and well-maintained catch basin system is the first line of defense. Platinum Rooter and Plumbing provides professional catch basin installation, cleaning, and repair services for residential properties throughout San Jose and surrounding Bay Area neighborhoods.



What Is a Catch Basin?

A catch basin is an outdoor drainage component designed to:

  • Collect surface water from lawns, driveways, patios, and rain gutters

  • Trap dirt, leaves, debris, and sediment

  • Direct cleaner water into your storm drain or underground drainage system


It typically includes a grate on top with a drainage box below. As water flows into the grate, debris settles at the bottom, preventing clogging of downstream pipes and helping protect your foundation, landscaping, and exterior surfaces.


Why Catch Basins Are Important for Bay Area Homes

Without proper drainage, water can pool—leading to erosion, uneven walkways, mildew, pest attraction, and even foundation movement. IF your property has poor draining clay soil, foundation grade slopes or high-water landscapinga properly functioning catch basin will help redirect water safely.
