I will prepare yard drainage grading and stormwater permit plans
Grading Drainage, stormwater and Earth Retention Plans
About this Gig
Standing water, runoff toward the house and uncontrolled discharge can damage foundations, landscaping and neighboring property.
I will prepare a coordinated yard-grading and drainage plan using the supplied survey, existing elevations and proposed improvements.
Plans may show existing and proposed contours, spot elevations, drainage arrows, swales, area drains, catch basins, trench drains, solid pipes, cleanouts, dry wells, infiltration areas and approved discharge points. Depending on the package, I can also prepare runoff calculations, pipe sizing, inlet schedules, detention or infiltration concepts and erosion-control notes.
This service is suitable for backyards, patios, driveways, additions, ADUs, pools and residential lots requiring drainage documentation for permit review. The final solution depends on local rainfall, soil infiltration, topography and legal discharge options.
A current topographic survey is normally required. Field testing, infiltration testing, flood studies, utility locating, plumbing design inside buildings, professional sealing and permit fees are excluded unless specifically included.
