Why Stormwater Management Matters
Stormwater isn’t just about puddles after a heavy rain—it’s about the safety and sustainability of your property. Poor drainage can lead to:
- Soil Erosion That Washes Away Valuable Ground and Damages Landscaping
- Foundation Problems As Water Settles Around Buildings
- Flooding That Disrupts Access Roads, Driveways, and Work Areas
- Regulatory Issues if Your Property Doesn’t Meet Local Drainage Requirements
On the other hand, a well-designed stormwater plan protects your investment, ensures smoother construction, and helps preserve the environment. By working with
Southern Roots Land Development, you get stormwater systems designed for the unique conditions of the Lowcountry.
Our Stormwater Solutions
Every property is different, which is why stormwater management requires customized planning. We provide a full range of solutions that address both design and installation:
- Stormwater Planning – Site evaluations, runoff analysis, and planning tailored to your property.
- Drainage System Installation – Drains, culverts, pipes, and swales to direct water away from structures.
- Erosion Control – Soil stabilization, grading, and vegetation management to prevent washouts.
- Compliance Support – Systems designed to meet municipal and state stormwater requirements.
- System Upgrades—Modernizing outdated or failing drainage systems for long-term protection.
Whether you are developing raw land or improving an existing property, our stormwater services provide both immediate solutions and long-lasting results.
How the Process Works
Working with Southern Roots Land Development means you’ll have a clear, step-by-step approach to stormwater management:
- Site Assessment – We inspect your property to understand slopes, soil conditions, and runoff patterns.
- Customized Planning – A stormwater strategy is created to control water flow and meet compliance requirements.
- System Installation—Our crews install the drains, culverts, and grading needed to carry out the plan.
- Final Preparation – We test and verify that the system performs effectively before construction moves forward.
This process ensures your project stays on schedule and avoids costly setbacks caused by improper water management.

Erosion Control & Soil Protection
One of the most damaging effects of unmanaged stormwater is erosion. Over time, uncontrolled runoff can wash away topsoil, create ruts, and weaken property features. Our
erosion control services include grading, soil stabilization, silt fence installation, and mulching methods to keep soil where it belongs. These techniques not only protect your land but also help meet regulatory requirements for sediment control.
Local Experience Makes the Difference
Stormwater systems must be designed for the specific environment they serve. Here in the Lowcountry, heavy rains and tropical storms are common. Our team understands the soil conditions, weather patterns, and regulations that affect properties in Summerville, Charleston, and the surrounding communities. With local knowledge and proven experience, we install systems that continue to perform season after season.
