Photo Album: Eliminating Pool Deck Flooding in Osprey, Florida
Frequent flooding surrounding Theodore's pool deck at his Osprey, Florida, residence had become a recurring issue whenever there was heavy rainfall. The channel drain that was originally installed in the concrete deck had become ineffective at draining water properly, prompting the need for a more viable solution. Theodore had LRE Foundation Repair inspect the pool deck and assist in devising a plan for an improved drainage system. The LRE team installed a new, highly efficient channel drain along the pool deck. This new system is designed to effectively collect water and redirect it towards the perimeter of the property, ensuring the prevention of water pooling around the deck. With the implementation of the new drainage system, Theodore can now be free from concerns about any potential future flooding on his pool deck.
