Drainage and waterproofing by Cali Dream Construction in San Diego

Exterior remodels are the perfect time to address:

  • Gutter/downspout strategy
  • Site slope and runoff direction
  • Drain placement near patios and walkways
  • Threshold details at doors (so water stays outside)

Good water management protects everything—from foundations to new paint.
