Photo Album: New Exterior Drain Lines Will Keep Water Away From a Home in Columbus, OH

  • This is one of the sides of the home that was experiencing drainage issues. The line already drains out at the street, but obstructions are visible.
  • While working to tie an existing line into newer pipes, our crew came across this nasty build-up inside. Older system made up of clay pipe can easily split, break or crack. But the three-inch polyethylene pipe we install is strong enough to prevent these types of failure.
  • The new, durable pipe is installed in the ground and underneath the sidewalk. It is also led out to the street to drain water and keep it away from the house.
  • The soil is replaced over the areas where the new lines were installed. The crew also re-graded the soil directly around the house to allow water to drain away from the foundation.

Album Description

Homeowners in Columbus, OH, recently moved into a 40-year-old house, and they started to notice drainage issues on the property.

They plan to make this their home for many years, so having a proper drainage system and keeping the home dry is very important to them.

After researching various companies online, they came across Ohio Basement Authority's website. After having a thorough evaluation completed by one of our certified inspectors, the homeowners were eager to have our company complete work to correct the exterior drainage problems.

One of our expert crews installed new downspout conductor lines on the property and regraded the soil around the home and where the lines were installed. This allows water to flow away from the house so it will not enter the home and create additional problems.

The homeowners were happy to have these projects completed so they will have a dry living environment for many more years to come.
