Photo Album: Improving Exterior Drainage in Columbus, OH

  • The crew first excavates to expose and remove the older clay pipe that served as the drainage system on the property.
  • After the older pipe is removed, four-inch polyethylene pipe takes its place. This strong pipe will not split, break or crack like clay pipes commonly do. The crew also tunneled under the sidewalk to install the pipe.
  • The new pipes will direct water to drain out at the street.
  • The updated downspout conductor line has now been completely installed, leading out to the street.
  • The lines have been buried underground, and the dirt and stone on the property has been replaced.
  • Evidence of the downspout conductor line replacement is hardly evident as the sod is replaced.

Album Description

A homeowner in Columbus, OH, has had a dry basement for many years, but she was still concerned with the health of her house.

She contacted Ohio Basement Authority after seeing one of the company's TV commercials. She was impressed by the powerful dehumidifier, and that was installed in her basement to dry, filter and purify the air.

Some of the downspout conductor lines were also replaced on the property to improve drainage.

The homeowner was excited to have these reliable products installed in and around her house so that it will remain a healthy living environment for her family for many more years to come.
