Thum Co. Contractors repaired a storm drain basin and reinstalled pavers at Riverwalk Plaza, a major commercial plaza in Boynton Beach near Two Georges. We identified the failing area around the catch basin, reinstalled the road base, and reset the pavers — putting the parking lot back in service.

When the base under a basin washes out, the pavers around it settle and the grate drops — a trip hazard and a drainage problem in one. We pulled the settled pavers, rebuilt and compacted the road base, and reinstalled the pavers flush with the grate.

Storm Drain Repair at Riverwalk Plaza, Boynton Beach

We know Boynton Beach’s commercial corridors. The paver lots along this stretch take a beating — delivery trucks, constant turning traffic, and South Florida’s rainy season pushing water and base material out from under the surface. On this project we kept the plaza open while we worked, staged the repair tight, and got the lot back to full use fast. Property managers call us because we handle the whole job — diagnosis, base work, and a finished surface — without disrupting their tenants.

Storm Drain Repair FAQs — Boynton Beach, FL

Why do pavers sink around a storm drain basin?

Usually the road base under the pavers has washed out or settled — water finds its way in, fine material migrates out, and heavy traffic does the rest. The fix isn’t just resetting pavers; you have to pull them, rebuild and compact the base, then reinstall the pavers flush with the grate. That’s exactly what we did at Riverwalk Plaza.

Can you repair a storm drain without shutting down our parking lot?

Yes. We stage the work to keep lanes and entrances open and move fast — this plaza stayed open to customers and tenants the entire time. Commercial property managers across Palm Beach County call us for exactly this reason.

Do you handle commercial storm drainage work?

Yes — catch basins, basin repairs, exfiltration systems, and full storm drain installations for plazas, parking lots, and commercial properties throughout Palm Beach County. Call (561) 366-2050 for a site visit.

How do I know if a catch basin on my property needs repair?

Look for pavers settling or dipping around the grate, standing water after rain, or visible erosion along the edges. Catch it early and it’s a repair; ignore it and you’re looking at a much bigger rebuild. We’ll come take a look — (561) 366-2050.
