Drainage Solutions Before & After Photos

Gary, troubled by increasing concerns about water pooling around his driveway and foundation, sought the assistance of LRE Foundation Repair for a solution. An LRE Design Specialist visited his home in Inverness, Florida, for a full-home inspection and devised a plan to install an effective drainage system to route water away from his home. The LRE team installed a channel drain in the driveway designed to collect excess rainwater and direct it to a pop-up relief drain located at the far end of the property. Upon completing the installation, Gary felt relieved to have an effective solution in place, safeguarding his home from potential flood damage.

Kathryn faced a persistent issue with rainwater flooding around the back door leading to the pool deck in her Ocoee, Florida, home. The channel drain that was initially installed in the pool deck was no longer functioning properly, prompting Kathryn to seek a more effective solution. She reached out to LRE Foundation Repair, where one of our Design Specialists developed a plan to install a new and highly effective drainage system. The LRE team installed a more robust channel drain and water routing system to prevent rainwater from pooling around the deck. With the flooding issue resolved, Kathryn no longer has to worry about the threat of water damage to her home's foundation.

Chris P. was struggling with the area outside of his detached garage in Hudson, Florida. Every time it rained, water would pool up on the concrete pad and seep into the garage. Frustrated, he called LRE Foundation Repair for the solution. LRE inspected the area, determined poor grading was the main cause, and designed a solution by installing a percolation trench. This trench is a common drainage system that filters water away from the affected area and disperses it back out into the yard. Once complete, everything is buried underground and the homeowner was pleased with the clean look and his flooding problems solved. 

Douglas requested assistance from LRE Foundation Repair to help design an effective drainage solution for his New Port Richey, Florida home. Persistent flooding around the home had resulted in regular water intrusion indoors, and he realized that he needed to address this issue before further damage to his foundation could occur. Following a thorough inspection of the home by an LRE Design Specialist, a plan was devised to clear much of the vegetation around the flooded area of the home and install a French Drain to collect excess rainwater and divert it away from the home. The LRE team proceeded to clear the excess plant growth and installed the French Drain, effectively resolving the persistent flooding issue around the home. Douglas can now rest assured knowing that his home is prepared to withstand Florida's heavy rainstorms without the worry of flooding.

Megan F. from Rockledge, Florida had been facing a persistent problem of water pooling around her pool deck, resulting in slippery mildew conditions. In order to solve this problem for good, she sought the help of LRE Foundation Repair. LRE conducted a whole-home inspection and found that the previous channel drain and poor construction was not enough to handle the amount of water that ended up on the deck. To tackle this issue, LRE designed a drainage solution that included a new channel drain that would connect to a catch basin located far out in the property. This new system would allow a sufficient amount of water to flow through the new drain and out into the yard. Once the project was completed, the homeowner was thrilled to see that the pooling water and mildew conditions were eliminated.
