Catch Basins

When a yard keeps flooding every time it rains, you should consider the installation of a catch basin. This drainage solution can help drain all the excess rainwater away from your yard and prevent flooding. It is common for homes in North Billerica to have rainwater that pools in the yard and creates flooding because it has nowhere else to go. At Krefta Drainage Solutions, we can install a catch basin drain as a part of an exterior drainage system to channel rainwater away from your building to improve yard drainage. We will assess your standing water problem and create a tailored plan to get the water moving away.

What Is a Catch Basin?

A catch basin is a large-sized drain installed in low areas on a yard. its goal is to catch surface runoff water. It comprises a surface drain connected to a large underlying box which is further connected to an underground drainage system. This drainage system takes the water to downspout drains or storm sewers.

Your property may require multiple catch basin drains. The number of drains and the scale of the sub-surface drainage system depend on the volume of water that needs to be moved. The process of installing catch basins usually involves digging a trench and laying a drain and piping for moving water away to stormwater systems or local waterways. The trench is then filled in and the lawn and landscaping are repaired or replaced.

Benefits of Catch Basins

The lack of a custom-designed exterior drainage system means that your yard will be open to constant flooding, increasing the risk of major damage to your home. Some of the key benefits of choosing our catch basin installation services are as follows:

Improved Landscaping

Professionally designed and installed catch basins can add more years to your landscaping, thus helping save money, time, and effort. If you have soil that always stays soggy or there are pools of standing water after every rain, it can cause insect growth. Your plants and trees can become brown or even die off due to standing water. Mold and mildew can grow and damage the roots. Catch basins can improve drainage and prevent the washout of mulch and topsoil.

Protection For The Foundation

Excess water on your property can cause much more harm than damage to the yard. it can also damage your home’s foundation. The lack of an effective drainage system means that water is going to build up against the foundation and enter the interiors through the leakage. Such a scenario can cause significant damage to your building.

Our professional catch basin design and installation services can help move any excess water away from your yard and foundation. Thus, these drainage solutions can prevent costly damage to your property. Among other benefits, the installation of professionally designed catch basins can also prevent bacteria from building while adding value to your home.
