Drainage for Commercial Buildings — Lower Mainland BC

Site drainage on commercial property covers catch basins, trench drains, storm laterals, oil-water interceptors and detention systems, not just the building perimeter.

Why commercial buildings need this work

Drainage work moves water away from the building and off the property. On Lower Mainland lots — clay soils in Surrey, delta silt in Richmond and Delta, slopes in Coquitlam and Port Moody — the right system depends entirely on where the water comes from and where it can legally go.

Water in lower levels and elevator pits

Hydrostatic pressure against below-grade walls and pit slabs is the most common commercial call in BC, usually traced back to a silted perimeter drain or a failed pit pump.

Storm connections at capacity

Large roof areas, parking surfaces and added hardscape overload storm laterals installed for a smaller original footprint.

Working around tenants

Commercial work is planned around business hours, parking access, fire lanes and traffic management — ask every bidder how they will stage the site.
