Drainage Solutions for Every Problem

French Drain Installation

A French drain is a gravel-filled trench with a perforated pipe at the bottom, installed along the path water takes across your property. It intercepts groundwater moving through the soil and reroutes it away from your home before it reaches the foundation or pools in your yard. Most residential French drains in the Piedmont are installed along the perimeter of a problem area: beside the house, across a low-lying yard, or at the base of a slope that directs runoff toward the structure.

Gutter Drainage Extensions

When gutters overflow during heavy rain or downspouts discharge within a few feet of the foundation, the water has nowhere to go except into the soil right next to your house. Underground downspout extensions carry that water away from the structure and discharge it, often 10 feet or more from the foundation. It’s a straightforward fix that eliminates one of the most common sources of preventable water damage we see in Triad homes.

Yard Drainage 

Yard drainage problems surface when water, like rain, pools because the grade is flat, the soil is compacted, or there’s no clear path to an outlet. The drainage solution depends on your property’s specific layout. We install catch basins, and channel drains to move water off your property efficiently. For larger yards with persistent low spots, a combination of surface and subsurface drainage is often the most durable approach.

Common Questions About Drainage Solutions

Will a French drain fix my basement water problem?

It depends on where the water is coming from. If basement moisture comes from surface water or groundwater moving through the soil toward the foundation, exterior drainage can significantly reduce or eliminate the problem. If water is entering through wall cracks or a compromised foundation, a French drain alone won’t be enough; you’d also need waterproofing. Our inspection covers both possibilities so you don’t end up with a partial fix.

How long does yard drainage installation take?

Most residential drainage installations can take as little as one day to complee. Your inspector will give you a specific timeline during the estimated visit based on the scope of what your property needs.

Can drainage work be combined with waterproofing?

Yes, and in many cases the two go together. When water is getting into a basement both from the surface and through the foundation wall, addressing drainage outside and waterproofing inside at the same time produces the most durable result. We assess both during the inspection and can give you a combined scope if that’s the right approach for your home.

What happens once I contact you about my home?

We’ll contact you within 5 minutes to discuss the concerns in your home and schedule a time for a Certified Field Inspector to visit.

Can I finance my drainage solutions?

Yes. We offer zero-interest financing on approved credit, so you can move forward with the repair now and pay over time without any added cost.
