History and Experience

The Birth of Drain Designs
In 2008, Kevin moved the company from Ohio to North Carolina. He was able to show customers who needed help with cracked, failing foundations, masonry repairs, and waterproofing that these were mainly drainage problems. However, there was no drainage specialist in our area at that time.
He began designing and installing custom, high-quality drainage systems to protect homes and landscaping. Word spread fast. Drainage calls dominated our phone lines, and Drain Designs was born.
Kevin has since been awarded 2 patents on products he calls “The American Drain System” which is far superior to outdated french drains and foundation drain systems. It is also the only true waterproofing system in the world. No other system can completely guarantee a dry basement or crawl space for life.
What Drives Us
Due to a combination of (1) the poor draining clay soil in our area, (2) new home construction methods over the last 30 years, and (3) a lack of smart drainage practice and regulation, the American Dream of having a home that is still worth something when we pay it off depends largely on smarter drainage. Sustainable drainage systems are essential to preserve our homes, neighborhoods, health, environment and economy.
