Expert Drainage Problem Assessment in Alpharetta, GA

Drainage problem assessment is the first step to protecting your Alpharetta property from water damage. At United Poolscapes, we inspect your yard, grading, and soil conditions to find exactly where water is going wrong. Alpharetta sits on dense Georgia clay that drains slowly. Once that clay saturates, rainwater runs across the surface instead of soaking in. Add rolling terrain and aging subdivision drainage systems, and water often ends up near foundations, retaining walls, and patios. Our assessment looks at slope direction, surface pooling patterns, downspout discharge points, and signs of active soil movement. We document what we find and explain what is causing each problem in plain terms. You leave the assessment knowing what is wrong, where the risk is highest, and what fixes make sense for your specific yard. If you are seeing standing water after storms or bare soil washing away, call United Poolscapes to schedule your drainage assessment in Alpharetta today.

United Poolscapes has done a wonderful job with several projects at my home including a full deck rebuild and hardscape for drainage issues. And even a custom hatch to make the two story deck a full catio for my cats. I highly recommend this team. They are skilled builders and do amazing work.

I couldn't be happier with the incredible job United Poolscapes did renovating my pool. From start to finish, they displayed an exceptional level of craftsmanship. Every detail was handled with care and precision. The owner Chris has an eye for style. He helped me choose the perfect tiles and finishes, and the final result is absolutely stunning. As somebody who can't always imagine how the final product will turn out, I appreciated the opportunity to work with somebody who could provide design insights. What really stood out was their perfectionism. They made sure every tiny detail was perfect. They replaced rotting wood, installed drains, and addressed structural issues with thoughtful, long-lasting solutions. When unexpected complications came up (like the need to install concrete piers to support the deck slab), they explained everything clearly and handled it professionally, charging a very fair price. Even after the job was done, they were quick to follow up on a couple of small items, which speaks volumes about their commitment to customer satisfaction. I originally went with United due to their excellent reviews and amazing customer photos. I was not disappointed. Their reputation is well deserved.

Christian built our pool in 2021. He was exceptional from the design phase, to the construction phase, and even several years later, when we had a leak around the pool, he returned and fixed it without charging us a fee. We highly recommend Christian and we would use him again to build another pool, if we needed it.

Chris and his team did a wonderful job with a few projects we had. We had an outdoor covered patio built which replaced our old patio open area, outdoor kitchen installed, backyard redone, and drainage pipes and French drain done. Everything came out beautifully and the patio looks natural to the house. The best thing is that Chris will always review and address any matters we had and thoroughly explain each job with his and his teams in expertise.
