For years, this homeowner’s yard, driveway, garage, and foundation flooded every time it rained. After over 45 years 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.
Here’s how we did it:
• Extensive system audit – using scopes to investigate where water was flowing, backing up, and failing.
• Precision measurement and planning – laser-guided systems ensured the right pitch, flow, and connectivity.
• Concrete reconstruction – removed and re-pitched the driveway at the garage, installing dual channel drains seamlessly tying both into the system.
• Hydro-jet cleaning – flushed out years of buildup to restore capacity.
• Rebuilt and re-routed drainage lines – engineered for long-term performance across the property.
Every step was designed to work together — yard, driveway, garage, and foundation — as one functioning system. The result: a property that stays dry, no matter the storm.
