Is A Landscape Water Drainage Diesign Plan A Good Investment? --
Due to the fact that the Houston landscape is so very flat, it is necessary at times to use sump pumps or sump systems to pump water out of areas that are lower than the elevation to which the water is being drained. In order to make this type of water drainage work with the Laws of Nature, we must build the sump pump in the form of a basin. This basin is made of brick or concrete and is dug deep enough into the earth to catch the water and retain it. Such a structure is vulnerable to encroachment of debris, so it must be frequently maintained to ensure proper water drainage. This includes inspection and cleaning of catch basins, cleanout of downspouts, and inspecting and replacing power connections.
