Drainage Solutions Before & After Photos

Jeff from Ormond Beach, Florida, was in need of a more effective drainage solution around his home after experiencing heavy flooding following severe rainstorms. He called LRE Foundation Repair and scheduled a free inspection with one of our Design Specialists to help provide a solution. After carefully evaluating the existing drainage system at Jeff's home, our specialist designed a plan to install a new system, which included French drains around the perimeter of the property. The plan also involved connecting the gutter downspouts directly to the underground drainage system to prevent the water from dispersing around the foundation. The water collected by the French drains and downspouts would then be diverted out to a pop-up relief drain away from the property through an underground drainage pipe. Once Jeff approved the plan, our team installed the system, carefully concealing it below the surface. Now, with this enhanced drainage system in place, Jeff can be confident that his home is better protected from potential flood damage.

In Port Orange, Florida, Paul’s pool deck required a more effective drainage solution after he noticed water pooling in the area following heavy rainstorms. After reaching out to us at LRE Foundation Repair to schedule a free appointment, we sent one of our expert Design Specialists to conduct a thorough inspection of his pool deck. Our specialist determined that the pre-existing channel drain embedded in the pool deck’s concrete had become damaged over time and no longer provided sufficient drainage.

A plan was created to implement a new drainage solution, which involved replacing the old channel drain with an enhanced version designed to collect and divert excess rainwater to a pop-up relief drain located away from the pool deck. After presenting this new solution to Paul, our production team quickly began the installation process, carefully removing and replacing the old channel drain with the more effective drainage system. Paul’s pool deck is now equipped with the right solution to prevent water from pooling, effectively protecting both the concrete and the foundation of his home.

Ken’s pool deck in Longwood, Florida, often flooded during heavy rainstorms, leaving large pools of water that drained slowly. Seeking a lasting solution, he contacted LRE Foundation Repair. Our Design Specialist inspected the property and found that the original channel drains had become damaged and were no longer adequate for providing proper drainage, causing persistent pooling. We proposed installing a new exterior drainage system featuring an upgraded channel drain to efficiently collect and divert rainwater away from the deck. After Ken’s approval, our team removed sections of concrete, installed the new channel drain, and connected it to a subsurface drainage pipe system. Now, Ken’s pool deck is well-protected with a superior drainage solution that prevents pooling and safeguards his home from water damage.

Connor from Longwood, FL, had just purchased his new home and wanted to install an exterior drainage system around his pool deck to eliminate the rainwater that routinely pooled in the area. He reached out to LRE Foundation Repair to learn how we could help, and our Customer Care team quickly scheduled a free appointment with one of our Design Specialists.

After inspecting the property’s layout, our specialist designed a plan to install catch basins throughout the yard that would collect and redirect rainwater through an underground drainage pipe and out through a relief drain away from the pool deck. Connor reviewed the proposal and gave our team the green light to begin the work.

Our crew removed sections of the yard around the pool deck to install the catch basins, relief drain, and underground piping. Once everything was placed and connected, the team replaced the previously removed sod, leaving the new subsurface system neatly concealed with a clean, seamless appearance.

Now, Connor’s backyard pool deck is protected from water pooling, helping prevent future damage and giving him peace of mind as he settles into his new home.

Harold from Apopka, FL, reached out to LRE Foundation Repair for help installing an effective yard drainage system to divert rainwater away from his home and protect his foundation. After completing a complimentary inspection of Harold’s property, our Design Specialist created a customized plan to install a subsurface drainage system featuring strategically placed catch basins that would collect excess rainwater and redirect it through an underground drainage pipe to a relief drain away from the home.

Once Harold approved the plan, our team began excavating a trench for the drainage pipe and setting the catch basins in place. After the installation was complete, the crew carefully restored the yard using the previously removed sod and added gravel around the catch basins to guide water into the system.

Now, Harold’s home is well-protected from water pooling around the property, providing lasting peace of mind and protection for his foundation.
