A drainage system is a network of pipes and channels that collect and direct rainwater and groundwater away from the home and property to prevent flooding and water damage.
A drainage system is important to prevent water damage to your home and property. Without proper drainage, excess water can seep into the foundation of your home, causing structural damage and water intrusion.
Common types of drainage systems include French drains, catch basins, downspout extensions, and grading and sloping.
You may need a drainage system if you have standing water on your property, a damp or musty basement, or if water is seeping into your home or foundation.
To maintain your drainage system, it’s important to keep the system free of debris and inspect it regularly for any damage or clogs. It’s also recommended to have a professional drainage service provider perform annual maintenance and inspections to ensure your system is functioning properly.
