Foundation Drainage in Byram & Clinton, MS
On expansive clay, water management is foundation protection. Water pooling against the house makes the soil swell; dry spells make it shrink. Gutters, downspout extensions, grading and French drains help keep moisture steady.
Questions about foundation drainage
Can drainage alone fix my foundation?
It can slow or prevent movement, but an already-moved foundation may need repair too.
Where should downspouts drain?
Several feet away from the foundation, onto ground that slopes away.
