Drainage Systems in Wilton CT

When flash storms, heavy downpours and persisting rain strike, it can take a toll on your home and yard, especially if you don’t have proper drainage systems in place. Often leaky or cracked foundations are the result of standing water around your house. The expanding soil can result in cracked foundations and water seeping into your basement or crawlspaces.

In order to prevent foundation damage, basement flooding, erosion and standing water near your home, you need to ensure that rainwater water runoff is properly routed to either permeable soil or the city storm system. When it’s not, your home and yard are at risk of being damaged.

Fortunately, the fix is simple.

There is no need to completely overhaul the systems you currently have in place. In many cases, just a few changes can yield much improved result. We offer options like gutter extension piping and buried downspouts. By installing underground downspout drains, we can extend existing systems away from the house and foundation.

A buried downspout is a great solution for a variety of reasons:

• It’s a visually pleasing alternative that won’t ruin your outdoor aesthetic.
• It’s safer, especially if you have young children or elderly residents who can trip over the exposed drainage piping.
• You can avoid soil erosion that might occur if water was routed through your landscaped areas.
• Pooling water is reduced, eliminating breeding grounds for bugs and pests.

You may need an upgrade to your drainage system if you are currently experiencing things like:

• Standing water
• Sunken concrete slabs around your yard
• Rainwater overflow
• Soggy and saturated grass areas persisting hours after rain has stopped
• Water draining from the roof and eroding the soil directly around the foundation
• Water curling back onto the house
• Damp or wet basement
