Drain Tile Installation for Homes in Northern California

Stronghold Foundation Repair offers professional drain tile installation services to protect your home from moisture damage and water infiltration.

What is Drain Tile?

A drain tile system collects excess groundwater through buried, perforated pipes. The water is channeled into a sump pit, where it’s released away from the foundation via a sump pump. Drain tile systems are particularly beneficial in regions that experience heavy rainfall or in areas where the water table is high.

A drain tile system can prevent flooding and extend the lifespan of your foundation. By reducing the amount of moisture that comes into contact with the concrete or masonry, the risk of cracking and deterioration is diminished.

Installing a drain tile system can also enhance the overall value of your property. Prospective buyers often seek homes that have effective waterproofing measures in place, as this suggests a lower risk of future maintenance issues. By investing in a drain tile system, you not only safeguard your home but also contribute to its long-term sustainability and marketability.

Our Waterproofing Solutions

DIY waterproofing solutions may seem like quick and cost-effective fixes, but they often only mask deeper underlying issues that can lead to more significant problems.

These methods address the root causes of water damage and drainage problems, providing lasting protection for your property. By implementing comprehensive solutions, you can ensure the integrity of your home and avoid costly repairs in the future. Don’t just cover up the symptoms—secure your foundation and enjoy peace of mind for years.

Waterproofing

Crawl space waterproofing prevents water intrusion and moisture accumulation in the crawl space beneath a building. The goal is to protect the building’s foundation, prevent mold growth, and enhance indoor air quality by maintaining a dry environment.

Crawlspace
This process involves sealing off crawl spaces from outside moisture using heavy-duty plastic sheeting. By creating a vapor or moisture barrier between the interior of the crawl space and the moist air and soil outside, encapsulation helps prevent mold growth and structural damage. It also improves overall air quality in the home by reducing the humidity level.
Waterproofing

Vapor Barrier/Moisture Barrier

A vapor barrier is a layer of material, often polyethylene, installed in areas prone to moisture, like crawl spaces or basements. Its primary function is to prevent moisture from seeping into the foundation, which can cause mold and mildew. It works by blocking moisture from the ground and the air outside, thereby maintaining a drier environment within the home. Depending on the recommendations of our waterproofing experts, it can be installed from the interior or exterior of your foundation.
Drainage

Drain Tile/French Drain

This drainage system consists of perforated pipes installed around a home’s foundation to collect and redirect water away from the foundation. The pipes are typically surrounded by gravel to enhance water flow. This solution helps prevent water accumulation around the foundation, reducing the risk of flooding and structural damage. These drainage solutions, like our moisture barriers, can be installed along your foundation’s interior or exterior perimeter.
Sump Pump

Sump Pump/Sump Pit

A sump pump is a device situated in a sump pit, a basin dug into the lowest part of a basement or crawl space. When water collects in the pit, the pump activates and pushes the water out and away from the home. It typically works with a drain tile system to prevent water damage and mold growth in areas prone to flooding or excess moisture.
Crawl Space Encapsulation

Dehumidifier

Dehumidifiers reduce humidity levels in crawl spaces and basements. They work by drawing in moist air, cooling it to remove water vapor, and releasing drier air into the environment. By maintaining optimal humidity levels, a dehumidifier helps prevent mold growth, enhances comfort, and protects the home’s structure and furnishings from moisture-related damage.
foundation Repair
Exterior waterproofing prevents water from penetrating the outer walls of a foundation. By addressing water intrusion at its source, exterior waterproofing helps to protect the integrity of the building’s foundation, reduce the risk of structural damage, and maintain a dry, healthy living environment.
Waterproofing

Foundation Perimeter Drain

This is a drainage system installed around the foundation of a home to prevent water accumulation. It typically consists of a perforated pipe buried in gravel, which collects groundwater and directs it away from the foundation, reducing the risk of water damage and mold growth.
Yard Drainage

Yard Drainage

This solution involves various methods and systems to manage surface water runoff in your yard, with French drains being our most popular option. French drains redirect excess surface water into perforated drain pipes, thus improving drainage and preventing water pooling.
Waterproofing

Downspout Extensions

These attachments extend the downspouts from your gutters a minimum of 10 feet from your home’s foundation. By channeling rainwater away from the base of the house, downspout extensions help prevent water pooling around the foundation, which can lead to erosion and structural issues.
Yard

Yard Grading/Sloping

This involves altering the yard’s slope to promote proper drainage away from your home. By grading the soil, you can create a gentle slope that directs water runoff away from the foundation, reducing the risk of water damage and improving overall landscape health.
