What is Drain Tile?

Originally and historically, drain piping was made from red clay tile, hence the name “drain tile.” Farmers spearheaded the use of clay tile to drain their fields of excess water improving crop production. The drain tile of today is now made with PVC or polyethene pipe, and comes in various diameters and strengths. Piping with holes (perforated) typically collects excess ground water or storm run-off and carries it to a new location. Solid piping is often used to carry single-location discharge (think downspout water) away to a new, safe location - Learn More

Your Situation?

Excess water can be a nuisance. Standing water is unsightly, kills turf and promotes mosquitos. Low and shady areas are hard or impossible to mow. Many property owners have poor grading around the house, consequently, water from downspouts and sump lines don’t flow away as they should. This can cause moisture problems as water seeps into your basement resulting in a mustly smell, damaged freverse grade). Storm water will then flow towards the structure causing many of the same problems. Downspout water often crosses sidewalks which is a safety issue during cold winter months when this water turns to ice. Excess water in your landscape beds will kill shrubs and trees faster than lack of water.
