No. Backwell is a commercial site-work contractor, not a plumbing drain cleaner. We do not snake sewers or clear sink backups. If the problem needs excavation, grading, catch basins, asphalt, or concrete restoration, that is our lane.
Yes. Send the address, photos if you have them, and what happens when it rains. You get a free site review and a written scope with a number you can plan against. No obligation.
Local soils, local stormwater rules, local crew.
Geneva sits at the north end of Seneca Lake on the border between Ontario and Seneca counties, on terrain dominated by the Finger Lakes drumlin field. Soils along the city's commercial corridors are predominantly Honeoye silt loam and Lima silt loam on the drumlin flanks, with Ovid silt loam on the lower slopes and Canandaigua silty clay loam on the lakebed flats close to the Seneca Lake shoreline.
Drainage flows into Seneca Lake directly - one of the deepest lakes in the country - which means any earthwork near the shore falls under tighter watershed protection standards tied to the Seneca Lake watershed. Commercial site work in Geneva regularly deals with cobbly, stony till on the drumlin crests, perched water on the lower silt loam slopes, and trenching constraints in the fine-textured lakefront soils. The downtown grid sits on a mix of historic fill and native till, so subsurface characterization is routine on redevelopment parcels. Shallow bedrock shows up occasionally on the higher drumlin summits.
Equipment crews mobilize across Onondaga, Oswego, Oneida, Madison, Cayuga, Seneca, Wayne, and Cortland counties.
