Drainage Solutions
Preserve your property with erosion‑fighting trenches, swales, and re‑grading services. Our solutions redirect runoff, stabilize soil, and keep your grounds safe and attractive through heavy rains.
Because Water Problems Don’t Show Up Until It Rains
Most homeowners don’t think about drainage until there’s standing water in the yard, mulch washing out, or runoff heading toward the foundation. By the time you notice it, the issue has usually been developing for a while.
At Precision Sprinkler Systems Inc., we evaluate how water actually moves across your property and install drainage systems designed to redirect it safely and effectively — not just temporarily push it somewhere else.
Common Issues We Address:
- Water pooling in low spots
- Soggy areas that never fully dry
- Downspouts causing erosion
- Mulch and soil washout after storms
- Runoff collecting near the home
- Water seeping into crawl spaces or other structures
Our Drainage Services Include:
- French drains
- Surface drains and catch basins
- Downspout extensions
- Dry creek bed installation
- Drain line repair and replacement
Dry creek beds, in particular, offer a natural-looking way to guide runoff while adding structure and visual interest to your landscape. When designed correctly, they move water efficiently and blend into the property.
Helpful Tip Before Your Evaluation
Drainage issues often disappear once the storm passes. If you can safely take photos or videos while the problem is actively happening — especially during or immediately after heavy rain — it gives us a much clearer picture of how water is moving across your property.
Photos of pooling areas, runoff direction, erosion, or downspouts during rainfall can significantly speed up the evaluation process and help us recommend the right solution sooner.
Built for Local Soil & Conditions
North Georgia soil and terrain require thoughtful installation. We evaluate slope, flow direction, and problem areas carefully — then install systems with proper depth, placement, and restoration so they perform long-term.
Because when the next heavy rain hits, the system should already be working.
F.A.Q.S
Yes—soil sloping towards a structure directs water under the footing, leading to settlement, cracks, or mold issues. Correct grading or install perimeter drains to divert runoff away from your home.
Yes—we install swales, retention walls, or grade corrections, plus select erosion‑control fabrics and groundcover to stabilize soil. Your property stays both safe and visually appealing through heavy rains.
A perforated pipe in a gravel trench captures and redirects subsurface water. We design each system’s depth and slope to match your soil type and drainage needs, preventing soggy lawns and foundation issues.
Amend soil with organic matter for better percolation, install French drains around beds, and consider raised beds or rain gardens for highly saturated areas.
Solutions range from surface drains (channel or trench drains) and catch basins to French or subsurface drains and downspout extensions—selected based on soil type, slope, and water volume.
Clean them at least twice a year or install gutter guards; ensure downspouts discharge at least 5 ft from the foundation or tie into a buried drainage line.
Poor grading, compacted soil, or blocked surface drains can trap water. We assess flow patterns, install French or surface drains, or re‑grade soil to channel runoff safely away from your home.
