Six product categories engineered for effective water management — from corrugated pipe to complete catch basin systems, all built with recycled materials.
Corrugated HDPE Pipe
High-density polyethylene corrugated pipe for subsurface drainage, stormwater management, and agricultural applications. Lightweight yet strong enough to handle heavy loads.
Catch Basins & Grates
Residential and commercial catch basins designed for yard drainage, downspout collection, and surface water management. Available with multiple grate styles and colors.
Pipe Fittings & Connectors
Snap-fit and barbed fittings for corrugated and smooth-wall pipe. Tees, elbows, reducers, and adapters for watertight connections in any drainage configuration.
Recycled Plastic Construction
ADS is the world's largest producer of recycled plastic pipe. Their HDPE pipe is manufactured with up to 95% recycled content, diverting millions of pounds of plastic from landfills annually.
Water Harvesting & Rain Barrels
Rain barrel systems that capture and store rooftop runoff for landscape irrigation. Save on water bills while reducing stormwater runoff in your neighborhood.
EZflow Drainage Systems
Pre-engineered drainage bundles that eliminate the need for gravel in French drain installations. Faster installation, consistent performance, and reduced labor costs.
Why Drainage Matters in Southwest Florida
Florida's flat terrain, high water table, and intense seasonal rainfall create unique drainage challenges. Standing water can cause foundation damage, mosquito breeding, landscape erosion, and property flooding. Proper drainage isn't optional here — it's essential.
ADS corrugated pipe and catch basin systems are engineered for exactly these conditions. Lightweight HDPE construction resists corrosion in Florida's moisture-rich soil, while perforated pipe options allow controlled groundwater absorption.
Common Florida Drainage Projects
Yard & Foundation Drainage
French drains and perimeter drainage to redirect water away from your home's foundation and prevent flooding.
Downspout & Gutter Drainage
Underground downspout extensions that move roof runoff away from your foundation to the street or retention area.
Driveway & Patio Drainage
Channel drains and catch basins that collect surface water from hardscaped areas before it pools.
Rain Water Harvesting
Rain barrel systems that capture runoff for garden irrigation, reducing water bills and stormwater impact.

How to Choose the Right Drainage Pipe
Corrugated vs. Smooth-Wall Pipe
Corrugated Pipe: The most common choice for residential drainage. Flexible, lightweight, and easy to install. Available in solid (for moving water from point A to B) and perforated (for French drains and subsurface water collection).
Smooth-Wall Pipe (N-12): Higher flow capacity for commercial and municipal applications. Smooth interior reduces friction for faster water movement in longer runs.
Pipe Sizing Guide
3" Pipe: Single downspout extensions and small area drains. Good for basic yard drainage.
4" Pipe: The standard for residential French drains, foundation drainage, and multi-downspout systems. Most popular size.
6" and Larger: Commercial applications, driveway culverts, and high-volume stormwater collection systems.
