Outdoor drains are an essential part of any landscape design, playing a crucial role in managing rainwater, excess moisture, and other forms of water accumulation. But while these drainage systems generally serve the same function, they come in various types suited for specific needs and conditions. Discount Drain Cleaning LV, the trusted local team for drain cleaning in Henderson, NV, discusses the different outdoor drainage options and their uses.
Surface Drains
Surface drains are one of the most common options to remove water from paved areas, driveways, and patios. These drains typically consist of grates or channels that collect water runoff and direct it to an underground drainage system. They are ideal for areas that experience heavy water flow on flat or minimally sloped surfaces. Regular drain cleaning services are necessary to ensure these drains remain debris-free and function effectively.
French Drains
A French drain consists of a perforated pipe buried in a gravel-filled trench. It helps redirect groundwater and surface water away from a property. This is commonly used in areas where water tends to collect or where soil retains too much moisture. The gravel allows water to flow into the pipe, filtering out debris that may cause a clogged drain. French drains are effective for managing water near foundations and preventing basement flooding. In addition, they are discreet and can be covered with grass or landscaping for a seamless appearance.
Channel Drains
Trench drains, also called channel drains, are long, narrow channels that capture water along its length and transport it to a designated discharge point. They are installed flush with the ground, making them an unobtrusive yet effective solution for water management. These systems are designed for durability and can handle high volumes of water efficiently.
While trench drains can be considered low-maintenance and may only require occasional cleaning, scheduling regular inspections with your local drain cleaning company can help prevent potential issues.
Dry Wells
A dry well is an underground structure that collects and slowly disperses water into the surrounding soil. It helps manage excess water from gutters, downspouts, and drainage pipes. Dry wells prevent standing water and reduce pressure on municipal drainage systems. They are commonly used in areas where water drainage is difficult due to soil conditions.

I had the cartridge in my shower go bad and couldn't shut off my water. I called Walter at 6:00 am. He told me to shut off the water main and waited for him to get to my house and he fixed it in a matter of minutes, about 10-15 to be exact. I highly recommend them for any plumbing issues one might have.

We received a call from one of our tenants at a commercial retail center that all their toilets and sinks were backing up. We manage the property from out of town and rarely have plumbing issues, but now needed a plumber in a hurry. The tenant runs a childcare center and small children need access to bathrooms! After calling several companies who were too busy, one of them recommended Walter at Discount Drain. Lucky for us! Walter answered his phone immediately. He was friendly and committed to helping us out. He arrived at the property at the promised time and resolved our issue, keeping our tenants happy. His invoice arrived overnight with great detail and the price was reasonable. We won't hesitate to call upon Walter again.

Outstanding service. Was on time, price quoted was price charged, drains open and working in 30 minutes !! No mess to clean up, and was explained everything. Forget the ripoff plumbers in this city, that sell with the fear factor, and work you don't need. This is the only company to call.
