common drainage problems in coquitlam
-
Perimeter drains installed when a home was built can collapse or fill with silt and roots, letting water reach the foundation.
-
Homes on slopes can receive water from higher ground, which needs to be collected and directed away from the house.
-
When a finished space takes on water, repairs become costly quickly, so early action matters.
-
Older service lines are prone to cracks, leaks and root intrusion.
