From The NDS post:
For years, this homeowner’s yard, driveway, garage, and foundation dealt with serious stormwater issues whenever it rained. After decades of solving complex drainage problems, Tommy Pollina Landscape Co. Inc. knew a simple patch wouldn’t work. This project required a complete, integrated NDS solution that tied every part of the property together.


How Tommy Pollina Landscape solved it:
- Extensive system audit: Using scopes to investigate where water was flowing, backing up, and failing.
- Precision planning: laser-guided systems ensured the right pitch, flow, and connectivity.
- Concrete reconstruction: Removed and re-pitched the driveway at the garage, installing NDS 5 in. Pro Series™ Channel Drains plus Spee-D® channel drains with metal grates—seamlessly tying both into the system.
- Hydro-jet cleaning: Flushed out years of buildup, restoring capacity.
Rebuilt and re-routed drainage lines: Engineered for long-term performance across the property.
The result: One functioning system designed to work together to keep everything dry—yard, driveway, garage, and foundation. Congrats to the pros at Tommy Pollina Landscape Co, Inc. for providing this homeowner with a property that stays dry, no matter the storm.
