Our Erosion Solutions

Slope Erosion Repair

Slope erosion repair is an issue for many midwestern homeowners. The primarily cause of slope erosion is water runoff, but other contributing factors such as decaying tree roots, lack of compaction or an underground water source can also be contributing factors. Our solutions are unique; we diagnose water sources that contribute to slope erosion and then propose plans that capture the water and pipe it away to more suitable locations in collaboration with the slope repair. Drainage Team provides a variety of slope erosion services, from commercial and residential slopes to erosion repair, monitoring and maintenance. Contact us today for a consultation.

Sinkhole Repair

Sinkholes can pose a serious risk to people and property. They usually form when the soil structure is compromised through the exposure to water, either when underground water does not have a proper drainage outlet or because stormwater has eroded dirt near a surface opening. Sinkholes typically take years to form and range in size from a foot deep to more than 100 feet deep. The width of the surface opening varies. Drainage Team is a professional sinkhole repair contractor. Schedule a free inspection and sinkhole mitigation proposal today!

Rip Rap Installation

Rip Rap is an effective solution for lining the contours of a swale, stream bank, stormwater basin, or any area where there’s heavy water flow running through an area where erosion control is desired. Moreover, Rip Rap is a cost-effective solution, relatively easy to add to when necessary, has a natural appearance, does not harm the environment, and works well in combination with soil bioengineering slope techniques. The key to a successful Rip Rap drainage swale project is preparation of the area where you’re installing the rock. Whether it’s swale creation, compacting the area first, prepping the stream bank, installing the proper underlayment, etc., make sure your contractor has all these boxes checked before your Rip Rap installation begins. We are expert rip rap installers and we will ensure your installation is a success. Schedule a free consultation today!

Creek Bank Stabilization

Due to the frequent water flow and flash flood rain events, creek banks must be maintained to control creek erosion. Drainage Team executes creek erosion repair and stabilization projects to solve your current erosion problem, and support a healthy creek ecosystem. The majority of our creek restoration projects include grading / contouring, compaction, rip rap along creek, and establishing new vegetation on the river bank sides along with the necessary aftercare to ensure plant success.

Retaining Walls

Drainage Team builds large retaining walls where stormwater is a top consideration along with extreme stability in wet locations. Retaining walls are very common, especially in metropolitan areas where usable land is at a premium. When choosing a retaining wall contractor for your erosion / land stabilization project, you want to make sure you’re hiring the contractor that can do the project 100% correctly. This includes following manufacturer installation guidelines, local building codes, minimizing site disturbance and disruption, and installing proper drainage to prevent hydrostatic pressure buildup.

Construction Site BMP’s

On construction sites or land disturbance sites, soil is extremely vulnerable to erosion and movement by both wind and water. Eroded soil endangers local water resources by affecting water quality and causing the siltation of aquatic habitat for fish and other species. Eroded soil also necessitates the maintenance of sewers and ditches and the eventual dredging of nearby lakes. Moreover, drainage Team can handle your sites Sediment Runoff Control and Stormwater Best Management Practices. Email us your plans today for a proposal, or set up an on-site consultation.
