Frequently Asked Questions
At Superior Stormwater Management, we know drainage problems can be confusing and stressful.
Here are some common questions we hear from homeowners across Marietta and North Atlanta — along with clear, honest answers to help you protect your home and yard.
About Our Company
-
We’re a local, family-run company based in Marietta, Georgia. Our team designs and installs long-term drainage solutions that stop yard flooding, erosion, and foundation damage. We specialize in custom underground PVC systems, erosion control, retaining walls, and green infrastructure that blend function with curb appeal.
-
We proudly serve Marietta, Kennesaw, Roswell, Woodstock, and surrounding areas in Cobb County and North Metro Atlanta. If you’re not sure whether you’re in our service area, just give us a call — chances are, we’ve worked near you!
-
We don’t use temporary fixes or thin corrugated pipes that collapse over time. Every system we install is made with solid PVC and designed to perform for decades. We treat each project like it’s our own home — with care, precision, and craftsmanship that lasts.
Drainage Systems & Services
-
It’s a permanent system that channels rainwater away from your home and yard using heavy-duty PVC pipes buried underground. This prevents flooding, erosion, and soggy lawns while protecting your foundation and landscaping.
-
Absolutely. Many of our customers call us after dealing with recurring issues or failed systems. We’ll inspect your property, find the root cause, and replace old or ineffective materials with a custom design that actually works.
-
Yes — we build retaining walls, dry creek beds, and erosion control features that manage runoff while improving the look of your property. Everything we build is designed to handle Georgia’s heavy rain and sloped terrain.
-
We sure do. We partner with builders and homeowners to install stormwater systems during the construction phase so that drainage issues never become a problem later.
-
We’ll visit your property, study how water moves across your yard, and identify problem areas. Then we’ll design a system that fits your home’s layout and landscape — not a one-size-fits-all plan. You’ll get a clear, itemized estimate before any work begins.
-
Most residential projects are completed in one to three days, depending on the size and weather. We work efficiently and leave your property clean and tidy when we’re done.
-
We take great care to minimize disruption. Our crews plan every trench and outlet carefully, and we restore your yard as part of the project. In a few weeks, you’ll barely notice where the work was done — except that the water problems are gone.
Our Process
Maintenance & Home Care
-
Maintenance is simple. We recommend inspecting catch basins and downspouts once or twice a year to clear leaves or debris. Our PVC systems are sealed and low-maintenance, so you won’t need frequent service calls.
-
Watch for standing water after rain, soggy or bare patches in your yard, moldy smells in your basement, or water pooling near your foundation. These are early warning signs that it’s time for a professional inspection.
-
Yes — poor drainage is one of the leading causes of foundation cracks and settling. Redirecting water away from your home early can prevent costly repairs down the road.
