A 1966 median build year inside Indianapolis's Phase I MS4, so it cannot adopt a lesser standard than the city.
Clermont is an older town on the northwest edge of Marion County, with a median build year around 1966, roughly 59% predating 1970 and 88% predating 1980. Like Speedway, Beech Grove and Southport it is a mid-century town that has largely stopped growing, and the work follows from that: aging laterals, absent perimeter drains, original grading and clear-water connections that were normal when the houses went up.
Where Clermont differs from those towns is the permitting. Speedway, Beech Grove, Lawrence and Southport are all carved out of the Indianapolis Phase I MS4 and run their own programs. Clermont is inside it, and cannot adopt a lesser standard than the city. If your project needs a stormwater permit here, it is the city's standard that applies.
Clermont sits in the Eagle Creek watershed, and it is worth being precise about that, because Eagle Creek is gauged at Clermont rather than running through the middle of it. The practical version is that outlets in this area discharge into the Eagle Creek system, which is a drinking water supply watershed further upstream, so where a large discharge goes is worth thinking about rather than assuming.

Urban and edge-of-county Marion. No place-level soil survey exists for Clermont specifically.
Median build year 1966. About 58.5% predates 1970 and 87.5% predates 1980.

We do all nine services everywhere we work. These are the ones the ground in Clermont asks for first.
Water service, sewer repair and replacement, storm sewer and directional boring, permitted and inspected.
See the work →Our specialty. We find where the water is actually coming from, then build the system that moves it away for good.
See the work →Exterior foundation waterproofing, sump pits, pumps and discharge lines, for basements and crawlspaces.
See the work →Start with a call or a text to (317) 503-6782. Tell us what is going on in your own words. Water pools by the back door. The old driveway has to go. The yard slopes toward the house. You do not need the technical terms and you do not need a plan drawn up. If it is something we handle we will set a time to come look. If it is not, we will tell you that and point you somewhere better if we can.
Casey comes out and looks at the actual site with you. This part matters more in dirt work than in almost any other trade. Two back yards that sound identical on the phone can be completely different once you see the slope, the access, the soil and where the water wants to go. Walking it together means you can point at the problem and we can talk through options on the spot, including options that cost you less than what you had in mind.
After the walkthrough we put the estimate together and email it to you, with the scope of work written out so you can see what is and is not included. It is free and there is no pressure attached. Take your time with it and compare it if you want to. Honest pricing only works if you have room to check it.
Free, in writing, with no obligation to move forward. A deposit reserves your spot on the schedule once you approve it.

Indianapolis's. Clermont is inside the city's Phase I MS4 and cannot adopt a lesser standard, which is the opposite of Speedway, Beech Grove, Lawrence and Southport, all of which run their own programs. We confirm the applicable standard before designing a permitted job.
Because water is arriving there and nowhere else. Almost always it is a downspout, a low spot in the grade, or a driveway or walk pitched toward the house at that point. That is good news, because a single entry point is usually the cheapest kind to fix.
Yes, including directional boring where the line has to cross a drive, a walk or a mature lawn without open trenching the whole path.
Yes. Clermont is in Marion County, one of the four counties we work. We are based in Brownsburg, and Clermont is regular territory.
There is no honest way to answer that without seeing the property, because the price is driven by where the water is coming from, how far it has to be carried and what it has to cross. The estimate is free, Casey walks it with you, and you get the scope in writing by email.
