Drainage
French Drains
French Drains are ditches that use gravity running from a high area to a low area to drain stagnant water and also flood-prone areas. Modern French Drains are usually built with plastic or perforated pipe depending on the situation. Each pipe is then sleeved in fabric and set into the ditch which is lined in fabric and then filled by sand or gravel to prevent dirt and debris from entering the pipe.
Catch Basins
Catch Basins are designed to allow an intake of dirtied water and with a drop before the exit funnel, thus debris and setament are collected at the bottom of the Catch Basin while the clean water on top exits back into the connecting pipe. This greatly reduces the setament in the pipes that build up over time and makes it easy to flush out drains (usually once every couple years). Catch basins are placed accordingly to various factors that the contractor takes into account.
Sump Pumps
Sump Pumps are used to drain water that build up into a Sump Pit. Sump Pits are commonly placed underneath homes, or in flooded areas where using gravity to drain water is not an option. Sump pumps are usually installed underneath a house to protect the foundation and and wood from dry-rott thus preserving the home’s value & equity. Most Sump pumps are tied into the home’s electricity designed so whenever the water level of the Sump Pit is high enough it turns on and drains the water away to a place where it is no longer a problem, usually a storm drain or into existing drainage lines – thus completly drying up the the marshy area.
Channel Drains
Channel Drains are commonly installed in pool decks, patios, traffic areas, in front of garages, and other areas to prevent water from entering or exiting a certain area. Once placed in the desired location, they are connected into a drainage system, or one of its own is installed to drain the water away.
Storm Drains
Storm Drains vary in size and design for residental or commercial projects. A storm drains purpose is to drain heavy rainfall, flooding, and costal towns that experience regular storms.
