What We Offer

Our Yard Drainage Solutions

Customized Yard Drainage for Every Home

At Schmitt Waterproofing, we understand that every yard is unique. That’s why we offer customized yard drainage solutions designed to address your specific water issues. Our team will work with you to ensure that your yard effectively drains water away from your home.

French Drain Installation

A French drain is a popular and effective solution for redirecting water away from your home’s foundation. We install these drains along low points to guide water to a safe area, preventing water buildup and erosion.

Surface Drainage Systems

For areas with standing water, surface drainage solutions like catch basins, channel drains, and downspout extensions can direct water away from your foundation, preventing puddles and flooding.

Yard Grading and Slope Adjustments

If your yard has a poor slope, water may flow toward your foundation. We provide grading services to relevel or slope your yard away from the home, ensuring water drains properly and doesn’t pool near your foundation.

Dry Well Installation

Dry wells are designed to absorb excess water from downspouts or drainage systems, giving water a safe place to drain away from your property. This solution helps with areas prone to constant water overflow.

Gutter and Downspout Solutions

Properly functioning gutters and downspouts are essential for managing water flow. We offer gutter installation, cleaning, and downspout extensions to ensure your system is working optimally to protect your foundation.
