Where Can You Place Rain Barrels?

Rain Barrels can be installed under roof downspouts. They collect the rainwater that runs off the roof. You can then use this collected water for various purposes around your house. It’s an excellent way to make use of a natural resource that would otherwise get washed into the drains. It helps us do our bit for the environment by conserving all that water and protects waterways and the bays they lead into. Also, you end up saving money on your water bills.

For rain barrels that are resilient, durable, and efficient, you need the kind of expertise and high-quality services we offer. We handle the design and installation of all types of gutters at affordable costs and can fit the rain barrels of your choice too.

Why Opt For Rain Barrels?

1. Provide Your Plants and Lawns with Water That Won’t Impact Them

Unlike regular treated water that is "softened" with various dissolved minerals, the rainwater that flows down from roofs is naturally soft. This water stored in rain barrels is ideal for watering indoor/ outdoor plants, washing hardscaping, or even your car. It also doesn’t contain any fluoride or chlorine.

2. Save Water and Money

As mentioned earlier, you save a lot of water, and that also means you save money. Instead of using water from the taps or faucets, you can use water stored in rain barrels to keep your landscaping happy and growing, while spending less on utilities.

3. Replenish the Underwater Table

Water stored in rain barrels won't rush off into the local streams. Instead, when you start using the stored water in your garden and home, it slowly seeps into the ground, replenishing the underwater table. By reducing the volume of storm runoff, your rain barrels can help moderate stream erosion, which typically results in pollutions in the waterways and bays.

Things to Consider During Rain Barrel Installation

There are two main aspects that we look at when considering rain barrels.

Whether or not the roof downspouts are already connected to a storm drain system.
Most local ordinances don't permit the disconnection of downspouts if they are connected as a component of the development.
If the downspouts aren't connected, and they discharge water onsite in the form of overland flow, then rain barrels may be the right solution for you.

We will insect the system and ascertain whether rain barrel installation is possible on your property. If it is, we will install these features correctly and will also install downspout extenders and diverters as needed.
