Exterior Drainage system installed for Property Management Company in Chantilly, VA
Challenge
A property management company responsible for a one-floor commercial building in Chantilly, VA, faced a significant challenge with water intrusion. Following rain events, water was entering the structure, creating a risk of property damage, potential tenant complaints, and the long-term threat of foundation issues. For a property manager, unresolved water problems can lead to costly repairs and operational headaches. They needed a reliable "waterproofing contractor" who could provide a definitive, long-term solution with minimal disruption to the building’s daily operations and tenants.
Solution
After the property management company contacted NV Waterproofing & Foundation Repair, our specialists conducted a thorough site assessment to identify the source of the water infiltration. The most effective approach was a comprehensive exterior drainage system installation. Our team engineered a solution that included a closed French drain installed strategically along the front of the property. This drain was routed underneath the existing sidewalk to capture surface and subsurface water before it could reach the building's foundation. The collected water was then directed into a high-capacity Flo-Well® dry well, which safely disperses the water into the ground away from the structure. This expert commercial waterproofing service provided a lasting fix to their water issues, protecting the asset and ensuring smoother operations. For property managers needing effective waterproofing in Chantilly, VA, our targeted solutions mitigate risk and protect your investment.
