Frequently Asked Questions
Common questions about underground drains in Albertville, AL
Typical cost runs $12-20 per linear foot installed, depending on soil and obstacles. A 30-foot run from one downspout costs $360-600. Most Albertville homes need 2-4 runs, putting total projects at $800-2,500. We give exact quotes after seeing your property.
Usually to the lowest point of your property, a drainage swale, or a pop-up emitter that releases water far from the house. We design based on your lot's grading - water should flow downhill and away from any structures.
We dig narrow trenches (typically 6-8 inches wide, 10-12 inches deep). There's disturbance, yes, but it's minimal. Lawns recover in 3-6 weeks. We're careful around landscaping and restore the surface when done.
If you have persistent water problems - wet basement, standing water after storms, foundation concerns - underground drains are almost always cheaper than the damage they prevent. Foundation repairs start at $5,000 and commonly hit $15,000+. Do the math.
We use Schedule 35 PVC or quality corrugated drain pipe - either lasts 30-50 years if installed right. No rust, no rot, no degradation. The system should outlast your time in the house.
