Channel Drains

Channel Drain Service

A channel drain is a linear drain that moves water through an underground drainage system. It collects and disperses the runoff over a large area, often along a driveway or patio for water to exit and discharge to an existing drainage system.

Channel drains are constructed along driveways, patios and other outdoor areas. When excessive water gets accumulated in these outdoor areas, they make way for water to exit these areas and discharge into the existent main drainage system.

This is why they serve as the right choice for outdoor spaces prone to rainwater accumulation. The drain may be made using concrete, polymers or metals.
