DRAINAGE SOLUTIONS

Proven West Michigan drainage solutions for your water challenges.

AJS Groundcare specializes in providing industry-leading holistic drainage solutions with high-quality materials. Drainage issues can be stressful, and we offer experience and attention to detail during installation to ensure the issue is fixed properly the first time. We can help you eliminate wet yards, standing water,  muddy area's, leaky basements, wash-outs and more.

French drain installation

FRENCH DRAIN

French Drains provide a natural void into which groundwater can drain. After digging an 18"-wide trench to the right depth, we line it with non-woven geotex fabric, which allows water to pass through, but not soil. After laying the drain tile, the trench is back-filled with washed stone providing excellent water evacuation, powered by gravity.
French Drains are an ideal solution for perpetually wet, muddy yards, soft or swampy ground, or other areas.

TRENCH DRAINS

Trench Drains are commonly installed where water is running (or sheeting) across a solid surface, typically concrete or asphalt driveways, etc.

A properly installed Trench Drain is pitched towards the discharge end, and the solid surface is pitched down towards the Trench Drain (usually on both sides). This effectively captures the water and directs it towards the discharge.

Water Storm Drain

STORM DRAINS

Storm drains (surface, or trench, etc.) provide a natural outlet for the water to drain, eliminating standing water.
When installed properly with a leaf/debris basket, storm drains can be cleaned out and maintained for years of reliable performance!

Downspout finished installation

DOWNSPOUT CAPTURE

Capture water from your downspout using either direct or ground drain capture and redirect the water as needed. Redirecting water from downspouts is an ideal solution to eliminating wash-outs, pooling water near the structure, leaking basements and more.

Finished culvert installation

CULVERT INSTALLATION

Whether replacing existing culverts or installing new ones, they provide a large water passageway under a natural land-bridge. Culverts are used to direct a drainage ditch under a road, provide access to an otherwise inaccessible area, offer over-flow for a body of water, and more.

Excavation

REGRADING AND EXCAVATION

Adjusting the grade away from structures, re-shaping the surface, etc. can be utilized to naturally re-direct water. Often times excavation solutions are utilized in conjunction with other drainage offerings to provide a complete solution.
