High-pressure water jetting that clears sediment, roots and other obstructions from accessible stormwater and drainage pipes.
If a detention pond on your property is draining slow after a storm, or water is backing up at an inlet instead of moving through, you are the one who has to answer for it, whether that means a call from a resident, a notice from the city, or a line item your board did not budget for. Corral Bros handles drainage pipe jetting in Universal City for the pipes and outlet structures that feed those basins, clearing what is actually stopping the flow.
Northeast Bexar County sits on thin clay over bedrock, and near Randolph AFB that ground does not take water the way looser soil does. Rain runs off fast instead of soaking in, and it carries sediment straight into the nearest pipe or forebay. In older sections of Forest Crest and Northview, that often shows up as a silted forebay, a pipe run choked by roots from trees planted decades ago, or an outlet structure holding water long after the storm has passed. Newer construction around Olympia Hills can have the same problem sooner than expected if the pond was never cleared after buildout.
We walk the property with whoever is responsible for it, whether that is a property manager, an HOA board, or a general contractor closing out a site, and we look at what the pipes are actually doing before we touch anything. Jetting clears the sediment, roots and blockages, and we check flow before and after so you know the work held. You get a contractor who has done this enough times to know what a bad outlet looks like before it fails.
We're a local, family-built company that treats your Universal City property like our own, tidy crews, clear pricing, and drainage pipe jetting that holds up to Bexar County conditions. Available as a one-time project or part of an ongoing plan.
We schedule a free on-site visit, usually within 48 hours of your call, and walk the pipe runs with whoever manages the property, often a board member or community association manager. We check accessible inlets and outlets near the basin or along the pipe route, note where sediment or roots are backing up flow, and give you a straight estimate before any jetting starts.
Most of these established sections see buildup every two to four years, sometimes sooner if a line runs under mature trees. Established neighborhoods near Randolph often have older pipe runs with root intrusion from trees planted decades ago, and that root mass can choke a line faster than new sediment does. Slow drawdown after a storm or standing water at an inlet is usually the sign it is due.
We work around your schedule and keep equipment staged away from active parking and walkways whenever the pipe layout allows it. Most residential and commercial access points sit in common areas or easements, not driveways, so disruption is minimal. If a line runs through a tighter site, we coordinate timing with property management ahead of the work.
Thin clay over bedrock near Randolph AFB does not absorb water quickly, so runoff moves fast and carries sediment straight into pipes and forebays. That means grit settles at low points and bends sooner than it would in sandier soil, and outlet structures clog faster after a hard rain. It is part of why jetting on a routine cycle matters more here than in looser ground.
Pipe length, diameter and how many access points we can reach without digging all affect cost, along with how much root intrusion or compacted sediment we find once we get a camera or jetter head into the line. A straightforward run with clear access costs less than a long line with multiple bends and heavy root cutting. We confirm scope and price during the site walk before work begins.
