Trench drains in Phoenix solve a simple problem: water that spreads across a wide area instead of reaching a drain. At a loading dock, a wash bay, a building entrance or a production floor, that water becomes a slip hazard, a mess and a reason the slab is breaking down. Maybe the old drain is clogged with broken concrete, or there was never a drain there at all. We set trench drains into new or existing concrete, and we can walk your site the same week you call.
When You Need Trench Drains
You need a trench drain when water ponds across a flat area, runs into a building, or sits at the bottom of a dock ramp. You need a replacement when an old drain's grate is broken, the channel has cracked, or the concrete around it has broken up so the grate rocks or sits loose.
Don't wait. Standing water is a slip hazard and it soaks into the base under the slab. In Phoenix, monsoon storms from June 15 through September 30 can drop a lot of water fast, and a dock without working drainage can flood in minutes.
Trench drains are common at loading docks that slope down to the doors, at wash bays where trucks or equipment are cleaned, at building entries where rain runs in, and inside food plants where floors are washed down every shift. Each spot needs a different channel and grate, depending on whether people, carts or trucks roll over it.
Our Trench Drains Process
At the site walk we look at where the water comes from, where it needs to go and how the drain will tie into the existing line. You get a written bid within 24 hours.
On the job, we sawcut a trench through the slab, demo and haul off the concrete, and set the drain body to line and grade so it carries water to the outlet. We set the rebar, pour the concrete around the channel, finish it flush with the slab and install the grate. We've set trench drains outdoors and inside plants, where the work is scheduled around production. Most trench drain jobs take 1 to 3 days.
Trench Drains Cost in Phoenix
Cost depends on the length of the drain, the type of channel and grate, how thick the slab is, how the drain connects to an outlet, and whether the work happens inside a running building. A drain in a busy area may need a high-early mix to get back in service fast.
You get a written bid listing every step, and the price is fixed to that scope.
If a plumber is already on the job for the drain line, we work with them so the trench drain outlet and the pipe meet where they should, instead of finding out on pour day that they don't.
