Drainage Solutions

A French drain system is one of the most effective ways to prevent water from entering your basement and damaging your foundation. These systems can be installed around the outside of your home or inside your basement, depending on where the water problem originates.

Installed outdoors, these drains consist of a gravel-filled trench with a perforated pipe that redirects excess surface water and groundwater away from your foundation.

• Ideal for homes with poor yard drainage, sloped landscapes, or saturated soil
• Especially beneficial during spring snowmelt and heavy rainfalls in NJ
• Helps prevent foundation cracks, yard pooling, and moisture intrusion

Installed inside the basement, typically beneath the concrete slab along the perimeter, this system collects water entering through the foundation walls or floor and channels it into a sump pump system for removal.

• Effective for wet or flooded basements
• Stops ongoing leaks and moisture issues from underground water
• Discreet, long-term solution to protect your finished or unfinished basement

Our experts will evaluate your home and recommend the right French drain configuration—interior, exterior, or both—based on your property’s layout and drainage needs.

An effective sump pump system is your first line of defense against interior basement water issues. Installed in a sump pit at the lowest point of your basement, the pump activates automatically to remove water and discharge it safely away from your home.

Our sump pump solutions include:

• Primary sump pump installation (reliable, energy-efficient models)
• Battery backup systems to keep your pump running during power outages
• Ongoing maintenance and repair services

Sump pumps are essential in flood-prone areas of Northern NJ, especially during spring thaw, summer downpours, and tropical storm activity that can lead to flash flooding. Don’t wait for the next heavy rain—protect your basement today.
