Lift Station Cleaning Lewiston, ME

Lift stations are a critical part of wastewater systems in Lewiston, ME. They move sewage from lower elevations to higher elevations so it can continue to flow to a treatment facility. When a lift station is not maintained, solids and grit build up in the wet well. Grease and floatables can collect on the surface. Pumps can clog, alarms can trigger, and odors can become a problem. Clean Basins provides professional lift station cleaning in Lewiston, ME to remove buildup, restore capacity, and help your station run reliably.

Equipment Designed for Wastewater Solids and Sludge

Lift station maintenance involves heavy, waterlogged material. Solids and grit can compact at the bottom of the wet well. Grease and floatables can coat walls and components. Clean Basins uses vactor/vacuum truck cleaning and hydrovac-assisted cleaning to remove sludge, grit, and debris efficiently while keeping the work controlled.

Vactor/vacuum truck cleaning is effective for pulling dense material from the bottom of the wet well and capturing slurry during wash-down. This helps remove residue instead of leaving it behind. Hydrovac-assisted cleaning can be useful when more precise removal is needed around internal components, tighter access areas, or specific station features.

For facilities in Lewiston, ME, professional equipment supports consistent outcomes and reduces repeat clogging issues after service.
