Emergency Plumbing for Howard County Properties

Howard County is home to Columbia, one of the country's first large-scale planned communities, and to historic Ellicott City, where Main Street sits at the point where the Tiber and Hudson branches funnel into the Patapsco River. That stretch of Main Street has flooded repeatedly, including the widely documented 2011, 2016, and 2018 flash floods. Columbia's planned villages and newer developments in Elkridge, Clarksville, and Fulton bring their own stormwater and slab-leak issues, while rural stretches near Marriottsville, Cooksville, and West Friendship still rely on wells and septic systems. Clean Sweep dispatches crews across Howard County 24/7, from Old Town Ellicott City's stone foundations to Columbia's newest neighborhoods.
