Septic, Drain & Sewer Cleaning Services in the US - Industry Research Report

Wasted potential: Industry revenue is expected to continue growing due to strong government support

Septic, drain and sewer cleaning services have enjoyed steady revenue growth over the past five years despite a shift in downstream markets. While construction activity slumped in 2020, limiting the expansion of demand for septic and sewer maintenance, the industry's status as a provider of essential services has kept cleaning services on an upwards trajectory. This growth has made room for new small cleaners and nonemployers to join the industry and take advantage of their proximity and tailored services to undercut incumbent companies' prices. This competition has forced companies to drop prices and absorb some profit compression. Industry-wide revenue has been climbing at a CAGR of 4.6% over the past five years and is expected to total $6.7 billion in 2023, when revenue will rise by an estimated 4.4%.

This industry provides sewer cleaning services to municipalities, private landowners and industrial and commercial clients. Companies specialize in pipe cleaning and removing obstructions and hardened deposits from sewers.
