Channel and Trench Drains in University City, MO

Driveways and patios that slope toward the house can send storm runoff directly into a garage or under a door. A channel drain with a grate catches that sheet flow before it reaches the building. We use durable polymer or concrete channels from brands like NDS and set them flush with the surface. The channel ties into solid pipe that carries the water to a safe outlet.

Kitchen, Bath and Laundry Drain Clearing in University City

Slow sinks, gurgling tubs and overflowing laundry standpipes usually come from grease, hair, soap scum and mineral scale. Water in much of Missouri is moderately hard to hard, so scale gradually builds in water heaters, faucets and fixtures. Hard water leaves calcium deposits that narrow pipes and catch debris faster than soft water does. We clear lines with the right size cable for each fixture and avoid harsh chemicals that damage pipes. If clogs keep coming back, we camera the line to find the reason.

French Drain Installation in University City

A French drain is a gravel-filled trench with perforated pipe that collects water and carries it away from problem areas. It works well along foundations, behind retaining walls and in low spots that hold water after heavy rain. We wrap the gravel in filter fabric so fine soil does not clog the system. The drain is sloped to an outlet, dry well or permitted discharge point.
