Drainage Installation in San Francisco & the North Bay
Water is relentless. When it pools, backs up or flows toward the structure, it drives rot, molds interiors and destabilizes soil. Managing water on your lot is fundamental to protecting the building. We assess grading, clear existing drains and install new systems that move water away from foundations. One plan, one point of contact.

What We INSPECT & SERVICE
Includes but is not limited to:
Functional testing
We run controlled water tests on exterior drains, confirm slope and flow direction, and document any points of failure or blockage.
Site health & moisture checks
We look for signs of erosion, pooling, foundation moisture or landscape grading issues that indicate larger drainage problems.
Drain and channel clearing
We flush and clear existing area drains, downspout lines and surface channels to maintain flow and reduce backups during storms.
Minor repairs
Small corrections such as grate replacements, leaf-guard installs, outlet cleanup and sealing of minor leaks at drain connections.
When projects get bigger
For French drains, sump systems, downspout rerouting, swales, retaining-wall drainage or full property re-grading, we scope and manage the work with vetted excavation and drainage subcontractors. You get a single project manager, clear pricing and proper documentation. Subscribers receive discounted partner pricing.
Why it matters
- Protect the foundation
Water near or against the structure is one of the leading causes of long-term structural damage. - Prevent mold and indoor air issues
Effective drainage reduces moisture intrusion that fuels mold growth inside walls and crawl spaces. - Stabilize soil and landscaping
Proper water movement prevents erosion, root damage and settlement.
Process
- Intake inspection A review covers exterior drainage paths, grading, downspout terminations and soil conditions. From there we build your maintenance and mitigation plan.
- Quarterly service We clear drains, test performance and monitor seasonal changes that influence water flow.
- Special projects For new drainage systems or major corrections, we design the solution, estimate costs and manage licensed subs through completion.

Your roof and gutters are your home’s rain jacket and belt. If either fails, water gets in, fire risk goes up, and everything underneath pays the price. Home Stewards keeps these areas in good working order season after season with preventive maintenance and targeted repairs, backed by licensed general contracting and a 250+ point program delivered on quarterly visits.
Your furnace and ducts are your home’s lungs. When airflow stalls or heat delivery falters, energy is wasted and comfort drops. Home Stewards keeps systems breathing clean and running efficiently with seasonal inspections, filter service, and duct checks backed by licensed HVAC partners and a 250+ point home program delivered on quarterly visits.
For furnace replacements, duct repair and sealing, and code-level HVAC upgrades, we manage licensed HVAC partners, and Home Stewards subscribers receive discounted partner pricing.
Electricity is your home’s nervous system. Loose connections and outdated protection trips more than breakers, they risk people and property. We test, maintain and perform minor repairs during quarterly visits, then manage licensed electricians for panel work and upgrades. One plan, one point of contact.
Water and termites attack quietly. Left unchecked, they weaken framing, rot finishes, and invite mold. Home Stewards inspects and repairs early damage before it spreads, coordinating licensed specialists under GC management and a 250+ point program delivered on quarterly visits.
Fire and water damage can bring a home to a halt. From smoke cleanup to full reconstruction, Home Stewards manages recovery end-to-end under licensed GC oversight and healthy-building standards, bringing homes back to safety and function through a 250+ point program delivered on quarterly visits.
Water is relentless. When it pools, backs up or flows toward the structure, it drives rot, molds interiors and destabilizes soil. Managing water on your lot is fundamental to protecting the building. We assess grading, clear existing drains and install new systems that move water away from foundations. One plan, one point of contact.
Combustion gases belong inside sealed appliances and venting, not in your living space. During seasonal inspections we routinely uncover leaks that threaten health and increase fire risk. These failures are common, often hidden and usually fixable when caught early. We test, document and coordinate repairs so your equipment runs safely and efficiently. One plan, one point of contact.
Enjoy the North Bay’s weather and spend more time outdoors. We design, permit and build safe and long lasting outdoor spaces that extend your living area. From simple platforms to multi level decks and covered porches, we handle planning, material selection, structural detailing and construction. One plan, one point of contact.
Home hardening focuses on strengthening your home to better withstand environmental risks like wildfires, extreme weather, and long-term wear. Our approach prioritizes practical upgrades and preventative measures that improve safety, durability, and resilience without unnecessary disruption. The goal is a home that is better protected today and more prepared for what comes next.
Air and water filtration services are designed to improve the quality of what you breathe and use every day. We evaluate your home’s environment and recommend solutions that reduce pollutants, allergens, and contaminants at the source. The result is cleaner indoor air, better tasting water, and a healthier living space overall.
Dryer duct cleaning removes built-up lint and debris that can restrict airflow and increase fire risk. Regular cleaning helps your dryer run more efficiently, reduces drying time, and supports safer operation. It is a simple but important step in protecting your home and maintaining system performance.
