Waterproofing and Drainage

The cheapest fix is often the best one.

Soil that slopes away from the house, downspouts that carry water far away and gutters that work are the first line of defense for any foundation.

  • Timeline: A day or two
  • Slope goal: About six inches over ten feet
  • Parts: Fill soil, extensions, drains

The overview

What it is, and why it matters.

Many foundation problems start with water that pools beside the house. Soil that slopes toward the wall, short downspouts and clogged gutters put gallons against the foundation every storm.

We regrade to give a gentle slope away from the walls, extend or bury downspouts, fix gutter problems and add surface drains where needed, which often prevents expensive repairs.

Good questions

Foundation Grading and Gutter Drainage: common questions

How much slope do I need next to my house?

A common guideline is to drop about six inches over the first ten feet away from the foundation, where the lot allows.

Should I clean my gutters?

Yes. Clogged gutters overflow at the wall. Cleaning them, and adding guards if you like, is a simple way to protect the foundation.
