FRENCH DRAINS
Pooling water can have several causes. Premium Tree & Shrub reviews where water arrives, the existing grade and a suitable discharge location before recommending a French drain or repair.
At an Alpharetta home in Wills Commons or around Avalon, a French drain needs more than a trench at the lowest visible wet spot. We account for the layout of the lot and the surrounding outdoor space when defining the scope.
Alpharetta’s stormwater program is a useful starting point when a yard project changes runoff. We review the property itself before recommending the work.
Identify whether water arrives from a downspout, pavement or uphill ground before choosing a drain route.
We review the source of the water, the available fall and a suitable outlet before choosing the drain route. When planning a visit from Windward Parkway or Haynes Bridge Road, we also confirm the final access to the yard so the working route fits the property.
The property address determines the governing jurisdiction. Discuss the project scope before work is scheduled.
Explore the service scope then request an estimate for the property.

YOUR PROPERTY AFTER THE WORK
Leaves, soil and later landscaping can change how water reaches a drain or leaves its outlet. Keep accessible openings clear and watch the area during rainfall. Explain any remaining pooling before assuming that a different wet spot has the same cause.

THE WORK INVOLVED
A French drain needs more than a trench through a wet spot. Water must enter the collection area, move through the drainage route and reach a suitable outlet. A route that cannot discharge as intended may leave the original problem unresolved.
