How to drain water away from your house foundation effectively?

Install Rain Gutter system  

To get the water from your house effectively you should install a drainage system on the rooftop. The pipe should be connected to drain down the rainwater. Water can seep through the walls if rainwater stands on the rooftop for a prolonged period. So, a proper sewer system can help prevent damaging the rooftop,

  Create a barrier

The soil outside the house carries water which again can be the culprit behind damaged walls. So, a trench drain or a french drain can be created to direct the water out of the house. A trench drain reduces clogging and helps the water flow in a specific direction. On the other hand French drains are perfect for controlling floods in the basements.

  Site Grading

You can change the landscape of the water to let the water flow in the desired direction that is away from the house, Grading techniques take care of many types of drainage issues.

  Dry Wells and Reservoirs

You can install an underground dry well or reservoir to get rid of excess water since the dry well or reservoir expands the ability to hold fluid and transfer it back to the groundwater supply.
