Standard Water Control Systems is committed to excellence in every aspect of our business. We uphold a standard of integrity bound by fairness, honesty and personal responsibility. Our distinction is the quality of service we bring to our customers. Accurate knowledge of our trade combined with ability is what makes us true professionals. Above all, we are watchful of our customers interests, and make their concerns the basis of our business.

"Before you hire any Water Control company hire a plumber to make sure you really need drain tile. After we hired this company we still had seeping water issues. After they were called twice they finally told us we had a leaking pipe. In addition, an employee stole a cellphone and a FITBIT watch from our home and damaged our egress window. They fixed the egress window. The owner was not very pleasant, made us feel like we were not telling the truth. My husband literally spent hours changing passwords and canceling credit cards since the cellphone contained sensitive information. A few days later through Google find my device we pinned the cellphone at this business location, we called the police and had to take time away from our work to retrieve our phone. We never retreived our FITBIT watch. It was a nightmare! The company apologized but the damage was done!! The job itself was OK.. Apologies are not good enough after the hell we went through!! Watch who enters your property!! "

We have been avid RV'rs for nearly 30 years and have owned several different types of RV's. Everything from a pickup with a topper and air mattress to a pop-up pickup camper, hard side pickup camper, travel trailer, 5th wheel and destination (park model) trailer. Discounts available for active or retired military, law enforcement, EMS and Fire Service personnel. It's our Everyday Heros Reward. We are committed to providing our customers with the best RV tank cleaning and system services possible. We take pride in our work and strive for excellence in everything we do. We are a family owned and operated business. Our main service involves using our specialized hydro jetting machine to clean the gray and black holding tanks in your RV. We essentially scrub the interior of your RV's holding tanks clean, getting them as clean as they were when the RV left the manufacturer, using 1500 PSI water (which does not damage your RV's tanks or plumbing system). Approximately two hours are needed for this operation, depending on the quantity of tanks and the seriousness of any issues discovered. The best thing about Minnesota RV Tank Cleaning is that in addition to cleaning and servicing your holding tanks, water heater tank, freshwater tank, waste system, and plumbing system, we also provide you with the knowledge and skills you need to maintain their condition.

Foundation Drain Installation questions, answered by experts

Leach lines are commonly made of PVC pipe, and they’re placed into trenches filled with gravel and sand, which help treat the wastewater. The PVC pipes are perforated, or drilled with small holes, so the wastewater can drain out of the pipes and into the surrounding material, which eventually leads to the aquifer.

DIY is possible for small systems like French drains. Professional installation ensures proper grading and long-term effectiveness.

Linear drainage systems are popular for patios thanks to their straightforward installation and reliable performance. Often used along the edges of brick, concrete, or paver patios, these extended, narrow drains effectively capture and channel surface water away. Gully drains come in various shapes and serve a similar purpose by collecting runoff and directing it into the central drainage system to prevent water buildup.

When installing a French drain, the holes in your pipe go down. This allows water to flow from the gravel below into the pipe to be carried away from your flood-prone area. If you’re using a corrugated pipe with slots on all sides, it doesn’t matter which direction the pipe is facing.

Your sump pump will discharge water through a discharge line or pipe. The discharge line should be placed at least 10–20 feet from the foundation to avoid any issues.
