Project overview
Snell’s Beach School was facing an urgent situation where water accumulation under classrooms led to unpleasant odors and unsafe sanitary conditions. This not only threatened the structural integrity of the school’s foundations but also caused flooding in neighboring properties. The situation required immediate intervention to prevent further damage and ensure a safe environment for both the students and the community.
How we solved issues and successfully complete the project
Our approach to meeting the project’s demands included:
- Flooding Remediation: The water under the classrooms was efficiently managed, eliminating the unpleasant odors and addressing the unsafe sanitary conditions.
- Installation of Swale Drains: Swale drains were strategically installed to redirect water flow away from the classrooms and neighboring properties, preventing future flooding.
- Land Contouring: The land around the school was contoured to further manage water flow and enhance the overall aesthetic of the school grounds.
Project Timeline: The entire project was completed within five weeks, ensuring minimal disruption to the school’s operations and the neighboring community.
