Drainage Planned Around Your Property
Manage Water Before It Becomes a Bigger Problem
Effective drainage is an important part of a healthy and functional outdoor environment. When rainwater or irrigation runoff is not directed properly, it can collect in lawns, patios, planting areas and along walkways.
Coronel Landscaping evaluates how water enters, moves through and exits the property. We then develop a drainage plan based on the site's grading, soil conditions, landscape layout and existing hardscape features.
- ✓ Drainage designed around your property's natural water flow
- ✓ Solutions for lawns, patios, walkways and planting areas
- ✓ Careful consideration of grading and discharge locations
- ✓ Residential and commercial drainage installation
Our Drainage Services
Custom Water Management Solutions
We provide drainage improvements designed to move water away from problem areas and help outdoor spaces remain functional throughout changing weather conditions.
Catch Basins
Strategically placed collection points that capture surface water and connect it to an underground drainage line.
Surface Drainage
Drain inlets and surface channels that help remove water from patios, walkways, lawns and low areas.
Landscape Grading
Adjustment of surface elevations and slopes to help water move away from buildings and toward appropriate drainage areas.
Channel Drains
Linear drainage systems that collect water across driveways, patios, pool areas and other paved surfaces.
Downspout Drainage
Underground extensions that carry roof runoff away from the home and discharge it in a more appropriate location.
Drainage for Patios and Pavers
Drainage planning integrated with paved surfaces to help reduce pooling and direct runoff away from outdoor living areas.
Yard Drainage
Custom solutions for lawns and planting areas affected by standing water, poor runoff or low spots.
Drainage Corrections
Evaluation and improvement of existing drainage systems that are clogged, poorly placed or no longer performing effectively.
Complete Water Management
A Drainage System Must Work as One Connected Plan
Installing one drain does not always solve the full problem. A successful system must collect water from the correct locations, transport it through properly sloped pipes and discharge it safely.
We consider surface elevations, roof runoff, irrigation, soil conditions, paved areas and nearby structures before recommending a solution.
- ✓ Proper drain placement based on where water collects
- ✓ Correct pipe slope for dependable water movement
- ✓ Suitable discharge locations selected for the property
- ✓ Integration with landscaping, patios and walkways
Signs of a Drainage Problem
When Your Property May Need Better Drainage
Repeated water accumulation or erosion can indicate that runoff is not moving through the property correctly.
Standing Water
Water remains in lawns, planting beds or paved areas long after rainfall or irrigation.
Soil Erosion
Runoff carries soil, mulch or gravel downhill and leaves channels throughout the landscape.
Water Near Structures
Rainwater repeatedly collects near the home, retaining walls, outdoor structures or building edges.
Pooling on Patios
Water sits on pavers, concrete, driveways or walkways instead of flowing toward an outlet.
Wet or Soft Lawn Areas
Sections of lawn remain muddy, soft or difficult to use even when the rest of the yard is dry.
Shifting Hardscape
Excess water contributes to settling, movement or uneven areas around pavers and other outdoor surfaces.
Our Drainage Process
From Site Evaluation to Final Installation
We approach each drainage project by first understanding the water problem, then developing a practical system for the property.
1
Property Evaluation
We inspect where water collects, where it comes from and how it currently moves through the site.
2
Drainage Planning
We identify suitable collection points, pipe routes and potential discharge areas.
3
Site Preparation
Trenches, drain locations and surrounding grades are prepared for the planned system.
4
Installation
Drain lines, basins and surface components are installed and the work area is restored.
