Planning Exterior water management in Fort Wayne

First, diagnose

With Fort Wayne's flat terrain offering little natural slope, exterior water management often depends more on gutters and downspout extensions than on grading alone.

The full scope

• Grading adjusted for genuinely flat terrain
• Downspout discharge routed well clear of the house
• Window well drainage checked
• Surface swales where grading alone isn't enough
• Landscaping's effect on runoff

Worth noting locally

Fort Wayne's flat terrain means gutters and downspout routing often carry more of the load than grading alone can provide.
