Water issues are no problem at ACHEN ASPHALT.
Catch Basin Installation/Repair
We can install and repair any catch basin ranging from residential use to commercial road basins. Catch basins are a great way to catch ground water and properly distribute it no matter if it’s a small driveway, large parking lot or even a road.
Pipe Installation/Repair
ACHEN ASPHALT can install and repair pipe of any size for any project. We can piece together any network of pipe and offer several solutions to properly distribute water.
Curtain Drains
Curtain drains consist of using a trench, stone and pipe to control surface and ground water. It works like a barrier that can dry your property up very quickly. A trench is excavated with size depending upon the volume of water being managed. Next, stone and perforated pipe are installed. Once properly installed, the stone in the curtain drain will consume surface and ground water and drain to the pipe below. When there is a sufficient amount of water collected, the pipe will transport water to the proper destination.
Footing Drains
Footing drains are used around foundations or behind walls to drain water away from the structure and to avoid erosion. Footing drains also consist of stone and pipe and are usually completely buried.
Culverts/Swales
Culverts or swales can provide drainage for heavy volumes of water especially in areas where pipe installation may not be an option. A swale is a great way to direct water in steep applications or long stretches. We can contour the land to guide water where you want it.
Dry Wells
Dry wells can effectively manage and disperse large amounts of water in areas where it can not be piped to daylight. Water is released through stone underground.
