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.

Local Knowledge

Why Skaneateles chooses Backwell.

Local soils, local stormwater rules, local crew.

Site Conditions (Onondaga County)

Skaneateles sits at the north end of Skaneateles Lake in southwestern Onondaga County, on classic Finger Lakes terrain with steep lakefront slopes falling to a narrow lake-head flat. Soils across the village and surrounding commercial parcels are dominated by Honeoye silt loam and Lansing silt loam on the uplands, with Mardin channery silt loam on the higher and steeper ground and Wayland silt loam in the lake-outlet floodplain.

What That Means for Drainage

Skaneateles Lake is the unfiltered drinking-water supply for the City of Syracuse, which imposes some of the strictest watershed-protection standards in New York on any earthwork in or near the watershed. Commercial site work in Skaneateles regularly involves enhanced stormwater treatment, erosion and sediment controls above standard NYSDEC requirements, and careful grading design on the lakefront slopes. Shallow shale and siltstone bedrock can appear on the steeper valley walls. Frost-susceptible silt loams and the watershed overlay push pavement, slab, and utility details well beyond typical Onondaga County commercial standards. Projects in the watershed must coordinate with the Skaneateles Lake Watershed Agricultural Program staff in addition to standard Onondaga County MS4 review.
