Standing water, pumped out for good.
Perimeter drains, sump basins and quality pumps remove liquid water from crawl spaces, so the soil dries and the barrier and dehumidifier can do their jobs.
- Timeline: One to two days
- Parts: Drain pipe, basin, pump, discharge
- Backup: Battery option
What it is, and why it matters.
If a crawl space floods after rain, no liner or dehumidifier will keep it dry. Liquid water has to go somewhere. A drain along the footing collects it and sends it to a sump basin, where a pump moves it away from the house.
We trace the water source, fix grading and gutters where we can, install the drain and pump and add a battery backup where outages are a risk.

Crawl Space Drainage and Sump Pumps: common questions
How do I know if I need a sump pump?
If water stands in the crawl space or basement after rain, or the soil stays soggy, a sump system is the right fix.
Where does the pumped water go?
It is discharged away from the foundation to a lawn or drain, following local rules, so it does not come back.
