Drainage Problems? Welcome to North Carolina.

If you live in North Carolina, especially around the Four Oaks area, you’ve probably noticed that water can stick around after a heavy rain. A big reason for that is our clay-heavy soil, which doesn’t absorb water very quickly. Instead of soaking in, rainwater often sits on the surface, creating puddles in low spots around the yard. If your property is fairly flat or slopes toward your home, that water can start to collect near the foundation or turn parts of your lawn into a soggy mess. Another thing you’re dealing with here in North Carolina is the kind of rain we get. Summer thunderstorms and occasional tropical systems can dump a lot of water in a short amount of time. If your gutters overflow, downspouts release water too close to the house, or your yard doesn’t slope away from the foundation, all that water has nowhere to go. Soil that’s been compacted during construction can make things worse by preventing proper drainage. In many cases, simple improvements like adjusting the grading, extending downspouts, or adding drainage solutions such as French drains can go a long way toward keeping your yard drier and protecting your home.
