French Drain and Yard Drainage in La Porte City, IA
Waterloo Drainage Pros works in La Porte City, Iowa, a small farm town in the southeastern corner of Black Hawk County. We are a licensed and insured drainage contractor doing french drains, exterior footing drains, buried downspouts, and catch basins for homes and properties in and around town.
Many homes here have some age on them, and so does their drainage. Old downspouts still let go at the foundation, and the original grade has had decades to settle back toward the wall. We move that roof water off in solid buried pipe to a pop-up emitter and take foundation water from outside with a footing drain in washed #57 stone and geotextile fabric, so the water is stopped in the soil rather than caught after it reaches the basement.
Out here the exits are there but the runs are long. A drain may have to travel a good way across a lot to reach a ditch or a low corner, and the line has to keep dropping the whole distance. We survey the fall before we dig, because on a long country run a flat spot in the middle stops the water cold.
Our work in La Porte City covers french drains, footing drains, downspout burial, and grading. Every job starts with a free written estimate.
