Trench Drain Installation in Cincinnati & Surrounding Areas
A trench drain (also called a channel drain or linear drain) is an elongated surface drainage channel — typically 4"–6" wide and installed flush with a hardscape surface — that collects surface water along its full length and routes it to an underground drainage system. Unlike a single-point catch basin, a trench drain captures water across a broad surface area, making it ideal for driveways, garage aprons, patios, pool decks, and commercial loading docks.
