In this episode of The Build Show, Stephanie takes us on a walkthrough of a custom home at Wayne Manor to explain the critical water management strategies built into the project. From foundation drains and retention basins to multiple sump pump access points, she highlights how careful planning during excavation and construction protects a home long-term against high groundwater, snowmelt, and heavy runoff. Stephanie demonstrates how proper drainage design, thoughtful site grading, and redundancy in sump pump placement ensure durability, resilience, and peace of mind for homeowners.
