Before installing expensive drains, check your grade. The ground should slope away from your house at least 6 inches in the first 10 feet.
What is Negative Grade?
Over time, the backfill soil around a new home settles, creating a "trough" next to the foundation that collects water. This is called negative grade and is the #1 cause of basement leaks.
Our Grading Services
We add low-permeability clay soil next to the foundation and compact it to create a permanent slope that sheds water away from your home, protecting your investment.
