YOUR DRAINAGE, OUR EXPERTISE
Our area experiences a lot of rainfall throughout the year, so you’ll want to ensure that your property has the right drainage solutions to handle all that rain. At CLC Landscaping, we offer three types of drainage solutions to prevent water from pooling up on your property. The types of drainage solutions we offer include:

French Drains
A French Drain Basement is one of the best ways to divert water at the ground level. We only use durable, four-inch rigid pipes in our French drain installations and double-wrap them with two different socks to prevent clogging by dirt and debris.

Catch Drain Basins
We install catch drain basins in low-lying areas that do not drain well or see directed water output from downspouts or rain runoff. The rain enters the catch basin and then travels the length of the pipe to a designated area.

Downspouts
We can install a downspout that will direct the water from your gutters away from your home’s foundation.

Sump Pumps
As the name does not subtly suggest, this type of drainage uses a pump to move the water from one area to another. Unlike the French or Catch Basin drain, sump pumps can push water uphill and away from the flooded area.
BENEFITS OF FRENCH DRAINS AND DOWNSPOUTS
At CLC Landscaping, we prioritize long-lasting drainage solutions for your property. That’s why we incorporate cleanout valves in both our French drain and downspout installations. Here’s how cleanout valves benefit your drainage system:
Preventative Maintenance
Over time, debris like leaves, dirt, or even small objects can find their way into your drains and cause clogs. Cleanout valves provide easy access points to inspect & clear clogs before they become a major issue.
Proactive Approach
We strategically install cleanout valves at regular intervals in your downspouts and every 100 feet of buried French drain pipe. This proactive approach allows for targeted cleaning without disrupting the entire drainage system, saving you time and money.
Protects Your Foundation
Proper drainage diverts water away from your home’s foundation, preventing cracks, leaks, and moisture problems in your basement. French drains collect and channel groundwater away from your foundation walls, while downspouts efficiently move rainwater from your roof. This reduces the risk of foundation damage, which can be a costly repair.
Promotes Healthy Plant Life
Standing water in your yard can suffocate plant roots and lead to disease. French drains help prevent this by collecting excess water and directing it away from plant beds. This creates a healthier environment for your valuable landscaping, promoting vibrant plant growth.
Peace of Mind
Cleanout valves offer peace of mind knowing your drainage system has built-in access points for future maintenance. Whether it’s a routine cleaning or addressing an unexpected clog, our installations ensure your drains remain functional for years to come.
Reduces Erosion
Heavy rainfall can cause significant erosion problems, washing away soil and damaging your property. French drains and downspouts work together to control water flow, preventing erosion around your foundation, walkways, and patios. This not only protects your landscaping but also maintains the overall aesthetics of your property.
