The beauty of Pleasanton, with the trees on the sidelines of Shadow Cliffs and the custom houses of Ruby Hill, has its problem, and that is how to handle the rain water on the surface of a high clay-covered side hill area with a high percentage of grades. The rainy season causes poor grading of the soil and compacted soil to hold water on foundations or swampy lawns which do not appear to dry out at all. When this confined water is not dealt with, it results in erosion, damage of the foundation and deterioration of the landscape.
The drainage and grading experts in Pleasanton will come up with effective and sustainable solutions to keep runoff and standing water out of your property. It could be puddles around your base or settling that is not even in the yard, no matter the case we regrade and install specific drainage systems that will work to move the water off effectively. We have constructed every single project to correspond to the particular soil and slope conditions of Pleasanton- and to keep your home and landscape dry throughout the entire year.
How Drainage Systems Protect Your Home from Water Damage
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.
Popular Grading and Drainage Errors to Play Against
The water problem is aggravated by improper grading and wrongly laid drains. These are the errors that we often make (and correct):
Water is running towards the foundation rather than away.
Downspouts or drains blocked up with debris.
No place where the surplus water can go.
It does not allow natural absorption and delays the drainage.
forms low areas where water gets trapped.
Practical Improvements to Enhance Drainage
Other than grading, complementary systems can be added to enhance water control in your property. We may suggest: Depending on your landscape and type of soil we may suggest:
- French Drains: To divert underground water.
- Swales and Berms: To direct runoff by natural means.
- Catch Basins: To gather and dissipate surface water.
- Sump Systems: To drain low area areas.
- Gutter Extensions: To force roof water safely away of the foundation.
A mixture of appropriate grading with one or all of these solutions will offer total protection, the lawn to the base of your house.
Enhancing Lawn Health by Means of Better Grading
Standing water does not only pose a threat to your home but it will also destroy your lawn. Excessive soil saturation suffocates the roots, promotes the growth of fungus and complicates mowing. Bad drainage may be a nightmare to beautiful landscaping.
We balance your soil by means of selected grading enhancements and surface water management. When you manage the slope and the runoff properly, your grass and plants are always healthy, your yard always dries even, and your place of residence is less difficult to take care of.
Verified Client Reviews
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.
