Drainage FAQs
What’s the best way to handle stormwater drainage?The best way Cary Sod & Drainage can handle your stormwater drainage problem is with a berm or swale. A swale is a shallow depression in the ground that directs the water away from structures. A berm is a small risen area in the ground that protects structures from water flowing towards them.What is a french drain and what is it designed to do?
French drains are surface drainage systems that are designed to increase the overall filtration rate of the surrounding area and are used primarily to fix saturated yards. The french drain can be topped with gravel for effectiveness or with sod to hide it beneath the lawn. The higher the clay content in the soil, the harder it is to drain. Wet yard problems are commonly caused by high clay content in the soil, a level ground surface, and/or a high groundwater table.My basement flooded, how did this happen?
Rising groundwater tables, negative drainage conditions, or inadequate drains are often the causes flooding in basements. There are many different solutions for this and a design professional from Cary Sod & Drainage will be able to give you the best option for your particular situation.Why is Stormwater Runoff a problem?
Stormwater runoff happens when rain or snow is not absorbed by the ground. Surfaces like driveways and sidewalks prevent water from absorbing into the ground. Stormwater runoff is not treated before being sent to ponds and lakes and therefore carries pollution that can be harmful to wildlife.What Kind of Pollutants are Carried by Stormwater Runoff?
- Antifreeze
- Motor Oil
- Gasoline
- Paint
- Fertilizer
- Pesticides
- Insecticides
- Pet Waste
- Trash
- Household Chemicals
The easiest way to prevent stormwater runoff is by having Cary Sod & Drainage install proper drainage systems and vegetation to keep your sediment intact. Keeping chemicals and easily transported liquids in their containers is the best way to prevent these pollutants from getting in our water and polluting the environment.
