Pittsburgh sits at the confluence of three rivers surrounded by steep hills and valleys. When heavy rain falls, water runs downhill fast and overwhelms storm drains designed decades ago. Neighborhoods like Lawrenceville, Polish Hill, and the South Side flood regularly because elevation change funnels runoff into low-lying streets and basements. Clay soil beneath the city absorbs water slowly, so surface runoff pools around foundations and seeps through basement walls. Older homes built before modern waterproofing codes lack proper foundation drainage, making them vulnerable during every major storm. Rapid storm water extraction is not optional in this geography. It is the only way to prevent total loss when water invades your property.
