Comprehensive Drainage Repair Process

Planning & Design

We create a custom drainage and utility system to meet your needs. We evaluate the site, water movement patterns, the existing utility infrastructure, and your commercial property’s layout.

Excavation & Installation

We remove the existing pavement and soil beneath it, then dig trenches to prepare for the installation of the new drainage and utility lines.

Backfilling & Restoration

We pour new pavement materials in the trenches to uphold the new drainage and utility lines.

Types of Commercial Drainage Systems

A well-designed drainage system keeps your pavement safe, durable, and free of standing water. The right solution prevents flooding, reduces long-term repair costs, and protects both vehicles and pedestrians.
Below are the most common commercial drainage systems and how each one helps maintain a smooth, functional parking lot.

Standard Catch Basins

What They Are: Standard catch basins collect surface water runoff and direct it into underground drainage pipes.

Why They’re Used: They’re ideal for commercial parking lots with frequent pooling or low-spot drainage issues. These basins help prevent water buildup that can erode asphalt or create unsafe conditions.

Concrete-Encased Drainage Basins

What They Are: These are catch basins reinforced with concrete to increase structural strength and durability.

Why They’re Use: Perfect for high-traffic areas, heavy truck access, or locations where soil movement could otherwise shift or damage standard basins.

Permeable Pavers

What They Are: Permeable pavers allow rainwater to pass through gaps in the surface and absorb into the ground below.

Why They’re Used: They reduce runoff, help manage stormwater naturally, and minimize puddling – ideal for environmentally focused properties or areas with strict drainage regulations.

Trench Drains

What They Are: Linear drains installed along sloped pavement to capture and redirect large volumes of water.

Why They’re Used: Trench drains are best for commercial lots with heavy rainfall, steep grading, or areas where water tends to flow across large surface areas.

French Drains

What They Are: Underground drainage systems consisting of gravel and perforated piping that move water away from saturated soil.

Why They’re Used: French drains are perfect for preventing sub-surface water damage, reducing erosion, and protecting foundations or landscaped areas surrounding the parking lot.
