Alamo, located between the hilly terrain of Mount Diablo and the open lands of Las Trampas Ridge, is a city that is renowned to have beautiful landscapes and huge residential lots. However, the very terrain which makes this region a picturesque one is the cause of vulnerability to water runoff and pooling during the hard rain. Poor drainage may result in cracks in the foundation, muddy lawn, and erosion that may pose a threat to your house and the environment.
Our crew offers a full range of drainage services in Alamo, CA, that would control the water drainage and secure your property throughout the year. Regardless of whether it is water pooling around walkways, wet landscaping or foundation leakage, we will design and install long lasting systems which will fit your property design and the soil type of the area.

The slightest water can lead to permanent structural damage without adequate drainage. The moisture accumulates over the years around the base resulting in hydrostatic pressure causing the cracks, moulds and seepage of the basement.
We will fit drainages that will ensure that the over flowing water does not harm your property. We also have adjustments on grades, French drains, and sumps that ensure that your foundation remains dry and solid, even during downpours on the Alamo Valley.
Due to the special geography and weather conditions, Alamo has drainage problems that should be solved by homeowners at the beginning of the construction. These are just a few of the most frequent problems with which we present:
Houses that are constructed on slopes also experience a continuous down pour of water that may submerge the lower floors or the backyards.
The soil in Alamo retains water over extended durations causing foundation pressure and puddles.
The pipes used by older houses might be old and obstructed and they are unable to deal with water anymore.

We have constructed our drainage systems to manage the differences in the soil and elevation of Alamo. The most efficient systems that we use to secure homes are as follows:
The combination of these systems is strategic to offer continuous protection that keeps the water out of its place.
Each home in Alamo is different — hillside homes to flat-lot ranch homes, each home has its slope, soil and run off patterns that need to be accommodated in the drainage design.
The process of our team starts with an extensive site analysis to know where water gathers and travels through your property. We will then suggest the systems that suit your particular circumstances so as to get a long-term performance without causing disturbance to your landscaping and outdoor design.
Had a great experience working with Kyndell from Golden Bay Foundation Builders. I recently purchased the home and was looking for help with earthquake retrofitting options. He inspected my foundation carefully and determined that past bolting was likely adequate. He had suggestions about monitoring the foundation. He was very thoughtful and detailed in his approach, and worked to determine what was best for the home. In this case, that meant no need for additional work now. But if I need any additional assistance in the future, will be calling him again.
