French Drain and Yard Drainage in Waynedale, Fort Wayne, IN
Fort Wayne Drainage Pros is a licensed and insured drainage contractor serving Waynedale, the established neighborhood on Fort Wayne's southwest side. We install french drains, bury downspout lines, run exterior footing drains, and set catch basins for the older homes throughout the area.
Waynedale is a mid-century neighborhood, and its drainage has years on it. Downspouts often still dump at the foundation, and the original grade has settled over decades. We take that roof water off in buried solid pipe and handle foundation water from outside with a footing drain in washed #57 stone and geotextile fabric. That keeps the water in the soil off the wall, rather than a bare stone trench that silts up over time.
The homes here predate the newer subdivisions farther out, so the problems are wear-and-time problems. A settled grade sends rain back at the house, an old buried line has broken or clogged, or a downspout was never carried away from the wall. The fixes are straightforward once you find what has aged out.
Our work in Waynedale runs from downspout burial and grading to exterior footing drains and french drains. Call (260) 555-0184 for a free estimate on your home.
