Trench Drains & Channel Drains
While French drains and submersible pumps deal with water issues that are below the surface, trench drains divert water away from a surface. Trench drains, also known as channel drains, are lined with concrete and are designed to slope away from buildings to divert the water. Trench drains are often used to manage excessive rainwater, especially where there is minimal absorption into the ground, such as around pool decks, parking lots, and driveways. This is also the case if you are using an artificial lawn. There are also many applications for trench drains for commercial properties and they even work well in multi-level structures.
French Drains
When you call us to install a drainage system on your property, you’ll be working with true landscaping professionals. We’ll schedule a convenient time to meet with you onsite and determine the unique needs of your property. After you decide to move forward with one of our contractors, we’ll take the following steps to install a French drain on your property:
First, a trench will be dug in the ideal location to relocate water
It will be positioned horizontally to the water source, whether a hill or higher ground
Within the channel, a tubular draining system will be placed, which is water permeable.
Small stones are placed inside the tube for water to flow through
Once placed, the drains are covered with a grate and turf
Submersible Pumps
Submersible pumps are simple machines that are often used to remove excess or standing water from flooded yards and basements. These pumps use pressurized energy to push water from below the ground up to the surface, where it can be properly diverted away from buildings and other structures. We specializes in installing submersible pumps in our arsenal of drainage solutions.
How We Determine The Best Solution for Your Drainage Problem
How do you decide what type of drain is most appropriate to manage water on your property? There are some calculations that go into determining the size and slope of the drain system that will work best. Our drainage professionals have over 25 years of experience with helping customers choose a drain.
First, we will inspect your property to determine how much water will need to be drained, and the source of water problems. Channel drains are excellent for keeping water from flowing into your garage, basement, or parking lot. Submersible pumps serve to remove water from below the ground. We will measure the amount of runoff and the slope of the surface.
From there, we will determine the best drainage solution to manage your runoff water and keep your property dry. We'll choose a grate that can handle the flow capacity for your project to be sure that the proper drainage system will be installed to manage your runoff.
