Flood Zone
This section of the home was the most affected by flooding, with water regularly pooling around the foundation and washing away soil from the yard.
Downspout Water Flow Issues
Rainwater from the home's gutters was consistently being discharged through the downspouts directly around the foundation.
French Drain Installation
The LRE team begins installing the French drain system along the home's exterior walls to collect and divert rainwater away from the foundation.
Subsurface Downspout Connection
The home's downspouts are connected directly to the underground drainage pipe in order to prevent rainwater from discharging around the foundation.
Installing Subsurface Drainage Pipe
The drainage pipe system is installed underground beneath the home's yard, directing collected rainwater to the relief drain at the system's endpoint.
Complete French Drain Installation
The French drain has been successfully installed along the home's exterior, designed to collect and redirect rainwater away from the foundation to prevent pooling.
Complete Buried Downspout Installation
The home's downspouts are now fully connected to the underground drainage system, ensuring rainwater is directed away from the foundation.
Complete Exterior Drainage System Installation
The LRE team has completed the installation of the home's new exterior drainage system, carefully concealing it beneath the yard. The homeowner can now feel assured that rainwater will no longer pool around their home.
