Storm & French Drains

Storm Solutions You Can Trust

Storm and French Drain Installation in El Sobrante

For many homeowners, soggy lawns and damp basements following a storm is an experience that would be better avoided. At American Eagle Plumbing & Construction, we understand the climate of the region, and this knowledge of the conditions allows us to recommend the best solutions in the industry.

Storm Drains

Storm drains and French drains are both designed to capture excess water but are installed in different positions to be the most effective and save customers money. Storm drains catch surface-level water and redirect it. Normally positioned along curbsides in streets in neighborhoods or along highways, storm drains can capture excess water during heavy rainstorms and keep it from flooding nearby communities and homes.

Storm drains can be installed in various sizes to capture the maximum amount of water. We take the time to install storm drains carefully and also clean these drains as needed. Due to their position, storm drains can commonly catch litter and debris from people and the environment, which can inhibit their ability to remove excess water. At American Eagle Plumbing & Construction, we are experts in determining the best solution for keeping storm drains working smoothly throughout El Sobrante, CA, and surrounding areas.

Protecting Homes, Preserving Comfort

French Drains

French drains are installed inside of trenches and covered with gravel, while the perforated pipe transports water. French drains are designed to catch water that has seeped into the soil deep underground, unlike storm drains which capture surface-level water. They can be installed in homes or positioned in communities to capture large quantities of water and move it accordingly.

For communities where the public water supply is limited or unavailable, French drains can serve as an effective means of distributing water to wells or gardens. French drains are installed in trenches with pipes that redirect the water, and we will not only install these drains but also perform routine maintenance as needed as part of our service plan.

To install these drains, it’s required to dig a trench, but we make sure to keep the digging minimal and strategic to avoid property damage and inconvenience. Our drains can not only transport excess rainwater, but we can also install equipment to capture rainwater for homeowners to rely on through a process called rainwater harvesting, an eco-friendly solution for naturally preserving rainwater while simultaneously reducing the risks and damage that can be caused by flooding.
