Catch Basin Installation done right.
Where water collects in a depression, a catch basin gives it an entry point to a drain line. Its sump captures leaves and silt, and its grate keeps people and pets safe.
We set basins at the true low point, connect them to solid pipe and send the water to a safe outlet. Where several basins are needed, we plan them as one system.
What you get.

The basin sits at the lowest point so water has nowhere else to go.

How many catch basins does my yard need?
As many as the layout needs, often one per low area. We map the flows before deciding.
Where does the water go?
To a safe outlet that we plan before digging. It must not just move the problem next door.
Do basins need cleaning?
Occasionally. Leaves and silt collect in the sump.
