Back door drains are an important part of your water maintenance program. Often these drains are afterthoughts and just showing the drain a little love can prevent thousands of dollars in damage. We recommend drains to be checked for dirt, debris and leaves at the very least once per month. During the spring and fall months we recommend twice a month due to major changes in both seasons. ***Scheduling tip***If you have a lawn care professional (or if you care for your lawn yourself) when your grass is getting cut, check your back door drain.
