Protect the structural integrity of your foundation and the beauty of your landscape with our professional underground drainage installation service. While high-quality gutters are essential for capturing roof runoff, they are only half the solution; if water is dumped directly at the base of your home, it saturates the soil, leading to hydrostatic pressure that causes basement wall cracks and persistent flooding. Our expert team specializes in the technical design and excavation of buried drainage networks that carry water significantly away from your property.
By utilizing heavy-duty, smooth-wall piping and strategically placed emitters, we provide a permanent subterranean solution that eliminates soggy lawns and prevents the “wicking” of moisture into your home’s lower levels.
Invest in the long-term stability of your residence. We combine precision trenching with industrial-grade materials to ensure your drainage system remains clog-free and functional through every season. Whether you are dealing with a recurring basement leak or looking to preserve your expensive landscaping, our specialized underground services reinforce your property’s defense against water damage, ensuring your foundation remains dry and secure.
Unlike thin corrugated plastic that can be crushed or clogged by roots, we utilize rigid, smooth-wall PVC (Schedule 40 or SDR-35). This industrial-grade piping allows for maximum water velocity and simplifies future maintenance, ensuring your underground lines stay clear for decades.
We install low-profile pop-up emitters that stay closed when dry to keep out debris and pests, only opening under water pressure to safely disperse runoff into the yard. For properties with limited space, we design high-capacity dry wells that allow water to infiltrate back into the water table without affecting your foundation.
By moving the discharge point of your downspouts 10, 20, or even 50 feet away from the house, we significantly reduce the moisture load on your foundation. This proactive measure prevents the soil expansion and contraction that leads to structural shifting and costly basement waterproofing repairs.
When downspouts dump water directly onto the ground, they create moat conditions that eventually find a way into your basement or crawlspace. We understand the physics of soil saturation; our professional underground drainage installation service provides the engineered, out-of-sight solution your home needs to remain dry and stable.

Corrugated pipe has ridges that catch debris, shingle grit, and silt, which eventually leads to clogs that are impossible to snake out. PVC is smooth-walled, allowing water and sediment to flow freely. It is also much stronger, resisting the weight of vehicles or the intrusion of tree roots that commonly crush thinner corrugated materials.
Ideally, water should be discharged at least 10 to 15 feet away from the foundation, depending on the slope of your property. For homes with particularly flat yards or history of basement moisture, we may recommend extending the lines further or connecting them to a dry well or a municipal storm drain (where permitted).
Because we use smooth-wall PVC and debris-filtering catch basins, our systems are remarkably low-maintenance. We recommend checking the pop-up emitters once a year to ensure they aren’t blocked by grass or mulch. Because the pipes are buried, they are protected from UV damage and physical impact, lasting for 50+ years.
We take great care to minimize the impact on your landscaping. We utilize clean trenching techniques, carefully removing the sod and replacing it once the pipe is buried. Within a few weeks and a bit of watering, the grass typically knits back together, leaving your new drainage system completely invisible and functional.
Yes, as long as the pipe is sized correctly. For multiple downspouts, we typically upgrade from a 4-inch to a 6-inch main line to handle the combined volume of water during a torrential downpour. This ensures there is no backup at the gutters even when several sections of the roof are draining at once.
In our region, pipes are typically buried between 12 and 24 inches deep. This depth protects the pipe from lawnmowers, aerators, and heavy foot traffic while ensuring there is enough fall or slope for the water to move by gravity toward the exit point.
Yes, connecting your sump pump discharge to your underground gutter drains is a common and effective practice. This ensures that the water your pump is working hard to remove from your basement doesn’t just cycle right back through the soil and into the sump pit again.
A pop-up emitter is a capped exit point at the end of the underground pipe. When it isn’t raining, the cap sits flush with the lawn, preventing grass clippings, leaves, and rodents from entering the pipe. When it rains, the weight of the water pushes the cap up, allowing the runoff to flow out onto the lawn or into a garden bed.
