What Causes Poor Drainage

Flat spots from settling pavement, undersized or clogged catch basins, and grading that wasn't done correctly in the original construction are the most common culprits.

Water that can't drain properly speeds up pavement failure, creates ice hazards in winter, and can contribute to the kind of runoff issues the EPA's stormwater program is designed to prevent.

Signs of a Drainage Problem

  • Standing water 24+ hours after rain
  • Ice patches forming in the same spots each winter
  • Water pooling near building entrances
  • Erosion or washout along the lot's edges
