Drainage Solutions Before & After Photos

Facing recurring issues of pooling water and erosion around the backyard of his St. Petersburg, Florida home, Jeff T. recognized the pressing need for a drainage system. To address the problem, he decided to contact us at LRE Foundation Repair after a recommendation. We inspected the property and determined that the heavy rainfall was posing a potential threat to his home's foundation, and thus opted for the installation of a new trench drain, commonly referred to as a channel drain. Channel drains are useful in directing large amounts of water away from the home and out into the yard or street where it belongs. The relatively easy installation process left this homeowner more than pleased as his concerns were calmed and his home protected from any further damage.

Stephen H. contacted LRE Foundation Repair after growing tired of large amounts of water pooling in his backyard and seeping into his garage after heavy rains. LRE's specially trained team was able to remedy Stephen’s drainage issues by designing a customized drainage solution to divert water out of the backyard and away from his home. Stephen no longer has to worry about water intrusion damaging his home's foundation and yard any longer.

Gregory S. from Lutz, Florida, faced ongoing issues with puddles around his home's foundation. After researching local contractors, he contacted LRE Foundation Repair. Our Design Specialist assessed the problem and recommended installing a channel drain on the patio to direct water away from the foundation. This solution effectively resolved the drainage issues and protected Gregory’s home from future damage.

The channel drain in front of Eric’s garage in Tampa, Florida, was no longer functioning properly, prompting him to seek a more reliable replacement. After contacting us at LRE Foundation Repair for assistance, we sent one of our expert Design Specialists to conduct a free inspection and propose a solution. Upon thoroughly assessing the condition of the original channel drain, our specialist devised a plan to replace it with one of our upgraded models. This new system is designed to efficiently collect and redirect heavy rainwater away from the home through an underground drainage pipe leading to a relief drain, effectively preventing flooding in Eric’s garage. Our team carefully removed the old channel drain and installed our new, enhanced model, providing a reliable solution to protect Eric's garage and home from damage caused by flooding rainwater.

Chris’s pool deck at his Tampa, Florida, home experienced significant flooding during heavy rain, creating hazardous conditions for both his backyard and his house's foundation. Seeking a solution, he contacted LRE Foundation Repair to inspect the problem and design an effective drainage system. One of our expert Design Specialists visited Chris’s home and developed a tailored plan to install an EZ Flow French drain system around the pool deck’s perimeter. This system collects and diverts rainwater away from the area to a relief drain located away from the property. To provide additional support during heavy rainfall, a Liberty Sump Pump system would be installed to work alongside the French drain, helping to move water away from the pool deck at an accelerated rate. After reviewing and finalizing the plan with Chris, our team promptly installed the new drainage system. Chris’s pool deck is now equipped with an effective system to handle flooding during Florida’s torrential rainstorms.
