EXTERIOR DRAIN SYSTEMS
In general, in the world, there are two types of spaces: exterior and interior. Now, whilst this sounds a little bit simple, it has some bearing on the way that we get our job done. Interior systems are the ways that we can use to get rid of water that has already for inside. Exterior drain systems are descriptive of the things we can do to prevent water build up before it has the chance to enter your home and to make things a bit difficult. Here, it is very important to recognise the distinctions because it completely changes the point at which you are intercepting the water.
Explanations
Here, on this service page we would like to go through some of the things that you can do to effectively steer the water away from what we like to call the danger zones. Two ways we have already spoken about on different service pages are the sump and pump systems and the French drains.
If you would like to know more about them then feel free to head over to the relevant service page for all of the related information about those systems in particular. Now, we can go through some others. Keep on reading to find out about these other great solutions.
Guttering
Water hits the roof most of all if you are talking about the battering that houses take. Roof water can cause havoc if it is not properly dealt with. It can spill down and cause waterlogging in that vulnerable virgin soil that surrounds the house.
A good guttering system on the walls of the house makes all of the difference here. We can sell you the whole thing, we can install it for you and we can replace pieces or parts that are missing or that have been damaged by a storm or some other kind of damage. Talk to us over the phone or via email to find out more about his.
Grading
Here, we slip into landscape gardener territory a little bit. Basically, water depends upon gravity to move, it has no agency that is specific to itself.
Therefore, we think that a very easy way to keep the water away from those danger zones is to work the land to make sure that it ‘grades’ away from the edges of the house. We have the tools and the manpower to achieve this easily and we guarantee to perform a great job every single time. When it comes to grading, look no further, we have got you well and truly covered.
Footing Drains
Footing drains are things that we install around the bottom of the house or the building. They are a bit like the skirting board of a room and they are there to intercept the water before it has the chance to seep into the walls.
It is a great solution and we have been performing work in this area for a while with consistently excellent results. Get in touch today!
