The Dangers Of Standing Water Around Your Home

Standing water can cause soil erosion, cracks in your foundation, flooding in the basement, and accompanying issues like mold, mildew, wood rot, and more. It's also ugly and impractical -- the list goes on and on. Furthermore, you don't want your property to be comfortable for mosquitoes and other pests, and moisture in the basement can also lead to many unwanted visitors. If you would like more insight regarding the problems associated with water, and if you're trying to decide if it's worth investing in drainage work, grading, or a basement waterproofing job, we would be happy to talk through the situation with you.

Our Yard Drainage Services in Denver

French Drain Installation

One of the most effective solutions for managing excess water around your home is the installation of French drains. These underground drainage systems include perforated pipes surrounded by gravel or rock, allowing water to flow away from your foundation and into a designated drainage area. French drains are versatile; they can be customized to suit the specific needs of your property. We can put a drain around your house, or we can create a swale that leads water into a French drain elsewhere in your yard.

Foundation or "Footing" Drain Installation

Foundation or "footing" drains are another great way to prevent water damage. We'll install this drain around the base of your home's foundation, and it will intercept groundwater and lead it away from your property. This protects your foundation and alleviates hydrostatic pressure.

Soil Grading Around Your Foundation or In Your Yard

Proper soil grading is critical for ensuring effective drainage and preventing water from accumulating around your foundation. By sloping the ground away from your home at a gradual angle, you can encourage water to flow away from your foundation instead of pooling around it. We can also grade your property in areas away from your home; perhaps there is a depression in your yard that collects water, and you want your kids to be able to play there. Wherever you have pooling water, we are happy to take a look.

Upgraded Gutters and Downspouts

Don't overlook the importance of a proper gutter and downspout system. Many homeowners dump gallons and gallons of water in the areas immediately surrounding their foundation, and this will erode the soil and cause foundation issues over time. Sometimes, it really is that simple! We've helped hundreds of clients by upgrading they water removal system.

Basement Drainage Systems

In addition to external drainage solutions, it's also important to consider the drainage systems within your basement. Sump pumps, interior French drains, and basement waterproofing can all help to keep your basement dry and free from water damage. These systems work in tandem with external drainage measures to provide comprehensive protection against water intrusion, ensuring that your basement remains a usable and comfortable space year-round.
