Stormwater Drainage Systems in Georgia

Georgia’s stormwater drainage systems are under constant stress from clay-rich soils, intense rainfall, development-driven runoff, and aging infrastructure. When storm drains clog, pipes separate, catch basins fail, or outfalls become buried, water has nowhere to go—leading to flooding, erosion, sinkholes, and system-wide failure.

Ecological Improvements provides comprehensive stormwater drainage system repair, replacement, cleaning, and inspections across Georgia. We help HOAs, golf courses, commercial properties, industrial facilities, and municipalities restore safe, efficient water flow throughout their sites.

Why Stormwater Drainage Systems Fail in Georgia

Georgia’s landscape creates distinct drainage challenges:

  • Red clay soils compact poorly and shift around structures

  • Aging drainage systems from older developments

  • High-intensity storms overwhelming undersized pipes

  • Sediment migration clogging conveyances

  • Vegetation blockage at inlets and outfalls

  • Pipe separation from soil movement

  • Poor grading and improper swale design

  • Buried or damaged outfall structures

These issues lead to:

  • Flooding in yards, streets, fairways, and common areas

  • Standing water and mosquito growth

  • Erosion along banks, slopes, and channels

  • Sinkholes and structural failures

  • Inlets and drains losing hydraulic capacity

  • HOA complaints and expensive repairs
