The Best Drainage Solutions in the Lowcountry
A correctly installed gutter system only solves half the problem if the water it collects has nowhere good to go once it leaves the downspout. Chronic wet spots in the yard, water pooling near the foundation, or erosion under a downspout outlet are all signs the drainage plan needs attention beyond the gutter system itself.
How Drainage Solutions Complement Your Gutter System
This work picks up exactly where our standard downspout installation leaves off — if your gutters are functioning correctly but you’re still seeing yard or foundation water issues, the problem is usually downstream of the downspout, which is what this service addresses.
Downspout Extensions & Underground Tie-Ins
Dry Wells & Catch Basins
For properties where water needs to be captured and slowly dispersed rather than routed elsewhere, dry wells and catch basins provide a controlled drainage point, particularly useful on lots with limited slope or nearby areas that can’t handle additional runoff.

Frequently Asked Questions
What does a French drain or drainage solution typically cost?
Cost depends heavily on the scope — a simple downspout extension is inexpensive, while a full French drain system or catch basin installation is a larger project. We provide a clear, itemized quote after assessing your specific drainage issue on-site.ㅤ

How do I know if I need a drainage solution instead of just a gutter repair?
If your gutters and downspouts are functioning properly but you’re still seeing standing water in the yard or near the foundation, that’s a sign the issue is downstream of the gutter system — we can assess during a site visit to confirm.
Can drainage issues damage my foundation if left unaddressed?
Yes — persistent water pooling near a foundation is a genuine long-term structural risk, not just a cosmetic yard issue, which is why we treat this as a real service rather than an optional add-on.
ㅤㅤㅤㅤㅤ
Do you handle both the gutter system and the drainage solution as one project?
Yes, we’re glad to assess and quote both together if your property needs it, or address a drainage issue independently if your existing gutter system is already sound.ㅤㅤ
