Drainage in detail: where water really remains

In Mainz-Hechtsheim, practice shows that water accumulation almost always begins at connection zones, drains and peripheral areas. This is exactly where it is decided whether a system will function permanently.

A short on-site inspection with targeted water flow and a look at drainage points prevents problems from only becoming visible after the renovation.

Key points for drainage and gradient planning in Mainz-Hechtsheim

  • Align gradients with real land use
  • Keep drains, gutters and emergency drainage clear and accessible
  • Integrate connection details into processes in a technically clean manner
  • Check and document watercourses after heavy rain
