Expert Underground Drainage Michigan Solutions
Many people do not realize the power of water until it’s too late. As they say, “water always wins,” and it will usually go where it wants unless you direct it otherwise. Gutters and downspouts can safely control water, but it can still damage your home afterward.
In many cases we find homes with the downspouts discharging directly next to the foundation, usually due to a downspout elbow falling off or simply because the original gutter installer didn’t know better. This water “pooling” effect next to the foundation can be a real problem, especially if the grade around the home is poor. This can lead to additional hydro-static pressure on the foundation walls.
Customized for your needs
There are a number of considerations which must be made with underground drainage Michigan. Especially concerning underground power lines or sprinkler systems as well as cement or brick paver walk ways which will determine how the trench will be dug. Every situation is different, but in general the goal is to safely take the water as far away as possible. This can sometimes be challenging, especially when neighbors get involved.
