Oklahoma Drainage had a customer in Lawton with water in their floor vents.  Every time the heater would run, it would spit water out of the vents.  Water was seeping through the foundation and into the ducts.  Cold water and warm air can cause mold to develop.  After a good duct cleaning company got all the water out, we went to work.  We installed a 6 inch French Drain three feet from of the foundation across the entire width of the house.  It intercepted all the surface water running down the hill.  More importantly it caught and stopped all the sub surface water traveling underground through the sandy soil.  The floor ducts stayed dry!

Oklahoma Drainage also installs a variety of other types of Drains.  Our Drainage Systems may utilize: French Drains, Surface Drains, Channel Drains, Trench Drains, Basin Drains, and Sump Pumps.  In the past 26 years, we have installed French Drains to keep water away from home and business foundations, Surface Drains to keep water away from sidewalks and driveways,  Trench Drains, and French Drains to keep standing water out of flowerbeds and yards, and Sump Pumps to remove water from basements and outdoor low lying areas.

French Drains can be installed by themselves, or as part of a Drainage System that uses other French Drains, Surface Drains, or other Drain combinations.  Typically a French Drain is used to protect a broad area that has a lot of standing water.  A French Drain might run along side a homes foundation, or beside a driveway, or on any Drainage Project where Sub-Surface water is the primary problem.  If water is running toward your home under ground ( through sandy soil), A French Drain is the only Solution  for draining away water flowing under ground.

 

If you live in Oklahoma City and need a French Drain installed in your yard, or along your driveway, or near your foundation, give CMG a call.  If you live in Edmond or Norman and need a Surface Drain installed in the concrete in your sidewalk or driveway, we can help.  If you live in Mustang or Yukon and would like to protect your trees or flower beds from standing water with a French Drain, We specialize in just that!

 

 

For most of us our home or business is our most important investment.  Standing Water can cause damage to what is important to us.  High Water from Storm-Water Runoff deteriorates concrete and cement.  This means that our driveways, sidewalks, and foundations need protection from prolonged exposure to Standing Water.  (Not to mention damage to plants, trees, and grass) WE have have been solving Drainage Problems since 1993.  If you live in Central Oklahoma we can quickly provide a free estimate.
