What is a dry well and how does it work?

A dry well is a subsurface structure that diverts stormwater runoff into the ground. It essentially collects rainwater and allows it to percolate into the soil, reducing water accumulation and minimizing flooding risks.

Why should I consider installing a dry well on my property?

Installing a dry well can help manage stormwater runoff efficiently, reduce erosion, and prevent water pooling. It is especially beneficial in areas prone to heavy rainfall as it helps protect the landscape and surrounding infrastructure.

How long does the installation of a dry well take?

Typically, the installation timeline for a dry well is about 1 to 2 days, depending on factors such as soil conditions, size, and weather conditions. We'll provide a detailed timeline after assessing your specific project requirements.

Do dry wells require maintenance?

Yes, periodic maintenance is needed to ensure the dry well functions effectively. This includes removing debris from the inlet and inspecting the structure to check for sediment build-up or blockages.

Is a permit required to install a dry well?

Permit requirements vary depending on local regulations. Before starting any project, we ensure all necessary permits are obtained, and we comply with local codes and ordinances.

How much does a dry well installation cost?

The cost of installing a dry well can vary based on factors such as size, complexity, and soil conditions. Request an estimate from JPL Excavation for a customized design!
