What's Included in This Service

You'll begin with a site evaluation where water flow patterns, slope grades, and existing drainage are reviewed. This step identifies where runoff collects and determines the best placement for storm drains, culverts, and channels in Rimrock. Flow lines are calculated to ensure water moves away from structures and toward safe discharge points.

Longfellow Excavating excavates trenches for storm-drain pipes, installs culverts under driveways or access routes, and builds ground-flow channels that direct runoff. Proper grading and compaction ensure systems function through heavy rains without shifting or clogging. Utility-trenching skill ensures systems function through heavy rains without shifting or clogging.

After installation, the site is tested during the next rain event to confirm drainage performs as designed. You'll see water flowing smoothly away from buildings, driveways, and landscaping. Systems are adjusted if flow rates or patterns reveal opportunities for improvement.

How Our Process Works

Clients often ask about system sizing, maintenance requirements, and how storm drains interact with other land-management services on rural properties.

How are storm-drain systems sized for a property?
Sizing depends on runoff volume, slope grades, and the area being drained. You'll receive a design based on your property's specific conditions and expected storm intensity in Rimrock.
Can storm drains be installed on sloped terrain?
Yes, grading adjustments and culvert placements allow drainage systems to work effectively on slopes. Channels and pipes are positioned to control flow speed and prevent erosion.
What maintenance do storm drains require?
You should inspect drains and culverts after heavy rains to clear debris and confirm water flows freely. Annual checks help catch clogs or settling before they cause problems.
Do storm drains work with erosion-control systems?
Absolutely, drainage channels and storm drains often complement erosion-prevention measures to manage water and protect soil. Combined systems offer better long-term land protection.
How long does storm-drain installation take?
Most installations are completed in two to five days, depending on trench length, culvert count, and site complexity. You'll receive a timeline during planning based on your property's layout.

Storm-drain systems give you reliable water management and protect your property from seasonal flooding and runoff damage. Lock in a drainage-system assessment to start planning your installation.
