Kathryn faced a persistent issue with rainwater flooding around the back door leading to the pool deck in her Ocoee, Florida, home. The channel drain that was initially installed in the pool deck was no longer functioning properly, prompting Kathryn to seek a more effective solution.

In Groveland, Florida, Andrew sought an effective drainage solution for his home after experiencing significant flooding around the perimeter of his foundation following heavy rainstorms. He reached out to LRE Foundation Repair, and we sent one of our expert Design Specialists to assess the situation. After a thorough inspection, our specialist recommended installing an EZ Flow French drain around the home's perimeter. This system collects and diverts pooling rainwater through an underground drainage pipe to a pop-up relief drain located away from the property. Additionally, the downspouts from the roof’s gutter system will be directly connected to the underground drainage system to improve water diversion and prevent rainwater from pooling around the foundation's base. Once Andrew approved the plan, our team installed the new drainage system, effectively addressing the water pooling issue. With this system in place, Andrew can now feel confident that his foundation is protected against potential water damage.
