Protect Your Property From Persistent Pooling

Schedule Stormwater Management in Crown Point

You face standing water in your yard after every spring storm, and the clay-heavy soils around Crown Point make drainage issues worse. Robert Balash Trucking & Excavating installs proven drainage solutions including French drains, swales, culverts, and retention areas that address pooling and runoff before they damage your foundation. You'll see results designed for local weather patterns, from heavy spring rains to freeze-thaw cycles that shift soil and stress poorly installed systems.

Your property in Crown Point deserves correctly sized drainage features that prevent erosion and protect hardscaping. We design stormwater management in Crown Point around the unique demands of new construction in Chesterton and Merrillville, where increased development strains existing drainage infrastructure. Each solution uses durable materials and proper grading to keep water moving away from structures, driveways, and landscaping.

Request a stormwater inspection in Crown Point to protect your yard and foundation year-round.

What to Expect When You Book

You start with an on-site assessment where we evaluate slope, soil composition, and existing drainage patterns around your Crown Point property. We identify problem zones where water collects and determine whether swales, French drains, or culverts will provide the most reliable long-term performance. You receive a clear project outline with sizing recommendations tailored to your lot.

Robert Balash Trucking & Excavating uses excavation equipment to install drainage features at the correct depth and angle. Proper backfill and compaction ensure your system won't shift or settle after installation. We account for freeze-thaw cycles that can compromise poorly constructed drainage solutions.

Your completed system includes erosion control features and grading that directs runoff away from vulnerable areas. We test water flow during final inspection to confirm the system handles heavy rainfall without backup or overflow. You walk away with drainage infrastructure built to last through decades of local weather.

Homeowners across Lake and Porter Counties rely on professional stormwater management to prevent foundation damage and maintain usable outdoor space. These questions address common concerns about drainage projects in areas with challenging soil conditions.
