Having a good drainage system in place at your home is important in a city like El Cerrito. While most of the year it is dry, there can be quite a bit of water run off during the winter rains. Much of El Cerrito is built on hills and slopes, and the water flows downhill. Older homes with sub basements are especially vulnerable to flooding. And all houses can get flooded yards, damaged foundation and structural walls, or undermined retaining walls. Having good drainage is crucial to make sure your home is safe from extensive water damage.
El Cerrito drainage contractor Carty Perez Construction specializes in drainage in the city of El Cerrito. First, we inspect your residential or commercial property to determine the best solution to your drainage problem, whether it is too much run-off, standing water or water seeping into your basement, we will come up with a reasonable fix.
Your home depends on a solid foundation. Standing water undermines the foundation of your home and causes very expensive damages to the home. With proper drainage systems in place, water will be directed to where it can effectively be drained away. Sealing and properly waterproofing the foundation of your home is an added level of protection that we provide to keep the foundation from crumbling under your home.
Excess water is a problem for homes in El Cerrito with basements. Too much moisture leads to mold which will not only destroy the integrity of the walls, but it could also cause serious illness. Waterproofing the basement walls can help alleviate this problem. If the basement is below the water table, we will also install a sump pump and drains to remove any water that might seep in.
Keeping water away from your home is the first line of defense. Carty Perez Construction also installs French Drains, a gravel filled trench that safely drains water away from the home. By capturing water that flows onto your property and diverting it, the foundation and basement will not be exposed to excess moisture.
