Common Drainage Problems

  • Improper Grading: If your yard slopes towards your home, water can collect around the foundation and cause damage to your home's structure and basement.
  • Poor Soil Composition: Some soil types need to allow water to drain correctly and can create a buildup of standing water in your yard.
  • Rain Gutter and Downspout Issues: If your rain gutters and downspouts are clogged, they can cause water to overflow and collect in your yard.
  • Natural Springs: When your property resides on a natural spring, excess water buildup may occur.
  • Excessive Rainfall: Heavy rainfall can overwhelm your drainage system and cause standing water in your yard.
