Local water challenges
Every property is different — but New Smyrna Beach homeowners keep calling us about the same water problems. Here's what we solve most often in Volusia County.
(386) 259-0023High coastal water table
Runoff eroding landscaping and soft soils
Flooded driveways and crawlspaces
Sand intrusion clogging poorly built DIY drains
The Proven Solution
From Coronado and Venetian Bay to Sugar Mill and Turnbull Bay, NSB properties sit on coastal sands with a high water table and frequent storm surge-adjacent rainfall (not the same as surge flooding into the home, but enough to saturate yards for days). Filter fabric is essential to keep sand out of perforated pipe. We also plan durable pumps and discharge that won’t undermine dunes or landscaping. Beachside access can be tight; we stage work to minimize disruption and restore finished grade cleanly.
A properly installed French drain + sump pump system actively lowers the water table around your foundation and removes water before it can damage your home, crawl space, or slab.
A French drain + sump pump system is like giving your house an active drainage system that fights back against Florida’s high water table and heavy rains. It won’t stop a direct hurricane flood, but it dramatically reduces the risk of foundation damage, crawl space flooding, and moisture problems that are very common in our area. Professional installation with proper sizing, filter fabric, check valves, and battery backup makes a big difference. French drains, sump pumps, and 2026 cost guide.
Without proper filter fabric and clean gravel, fine sand clogs pipe quickly. We use fabric-wrapped systems sized for coastal soils.
Yes. FloGuard serves New Smyrna Beach neighborhoods including Coronado, Venetian Bay, Sugar Mill, and Turnbull Bay.
No. Our systems manage yard groundwater and storm soak — not ocean storm surge entering the structure.
Strongly recommended. Power outages often coincide with the wettest weather.
Our system in New Smyrna Beach
Rain and runoff collect in problem areas around the home.
A trench with clean gravel and filter fabric intercepts water before it reaches the foundation.
4" perforated pipe in the trench captures water and carries it by gravity to the sump pit.
Waterproof basin at the lowest point collects water. Automatic pump activates via float switch.
Pump pushes water far from the foundation (10–20+ ft) to a swale, storm drain, or approved location.
What we install in New Smyrna Beach
01Perimeter trench systems that intercept surface runoff and groundwater before it reaches your foundation or pools on the lawn. Contains perforated pipe in clean gravel wrapped with filter fabric to keep sediment out.
02For crawlspaces and low, flat lots: a sub-surface drain routed to a sump basin that automatically lifts water to a safe discharge. The active defense when gravity alone isn’t enough. A waterproof basin collects water; a submersible pump with float switch pushes it far away.
03Catch basins, channel drains and precision grading that move water off patios, lanais and low spots without eroding your landscape.
04Seasonal service plans and smart monitoring that keep your system storm-ready year round — so it works the day you need it most.
