Do You Have a Drainage Problem in Pennsylvania?
Standing water is a common problem that many homeowners in Pennsylvania experience, and it’s a much greater concern than many realize. If your lawn becomes waterlogged when it rains and perhaps remains that way for some time after, it’s important to deal with it as soon as possible because the problem will only worsen with time. It causes soil erosion and damage to hardscapes. It will eventually undermine your home’s foundation and can even lead to basement and crawl space flooding. We also recommend a drainage system for yard areas that contain a septic system as poor soil infiltration in these areas can lead to sewage contamination and also debris in the septic system.
The Benefits of Effective Yard Drainage
The primary benefit of installing a drainage system in your yard is to stop soil erosion, which can undermine your landscape and hardscapes, including driveways, walkways, and patios. It also prevents ponding, which leads to a soggy lawn, kills grass, creates unsafe, slippery areas, and attracts mosquitoes. Effective drainage is also crucial for protecting your home’s foundation and ensuring water stays out of your basement or crawl space.

Custom Drainage Solutions in Pennsylvania
A well-designed drainage system for your Pennsylvania yard must take into account the property’s layout and unique elements such as hardscapes and satellite structures. Our team can manage necessary landscaping changes and install a range of drainage solutions, from French drains and foundation drains to swales, culvert pipes, storm drains, and downspout extensions.
Foundation Drains
Foundation drains involve one or more pipes that are installed beside or under a home’s foundation. These pipes channel excess water away so that it doesn’t erode the soil and eventually damage the foundation and flood the basement or crawl space.
French Drains
French drains are an effective drainage system for yard issues like excess water at ground level. These drains are highly versatile and can be adapted to the particular yard in order to collect excess rainwater and channel it away so that the lawn is not oversaturated.
Storm Drainage
Storm drainage is highly customizable as well and can involve drain pipes, drain grates, trench drains, and catch basins. These systems can handle a large volume of water, including the type of rainfall that you may experience only during severe weather, and channel it away from the property efficiently.
Downspout Extensions
One of the most common problems area homeowners deal with it is downspouts that do not channel rainwater a safe distance from the foundation and their hardscapes. Downspout extensions can be customized to your gutter system to ensure that rainwater is channeled appropriately.
Swales and Culvert Pipes
A drainage swale is an effective way to provide drainage for hardscapes and to correct issues with landscape slopes. Our team can also install a culvert pipe in addition to a swale in order to allow rainwater to pass underneath driveways and other structures.
Dry Wells
If your yard is prone to flooding, an effective solution is a dry well. Our team will install a French drain that diverts rainwater into the dry well. The typical well holds up to 50 gallons, which is enough for most flooding yards, and that water will be released into the soil slowly over time.
Paver Patio Installation
Choosing pavers for your patio or hardscape is ideal because they facilitate water drainage through channels, unlike solid surfaces that can cause ponding. Our experienced team can design and install patios that integrate seamlessly with your yard’s drainage system, using a range of materials including natural stone, concrete, clay brick, and porcelain pavers.
