Drainage & Sump Pumps in Baltimore City
A rowhome basin has to move water somewhere without a side yard to run a line through — usually the front curb or rear alley. We route it clean and code-compliant either way.

Questions
Straight answers.
- Where does the water go if I have no yard?
- Most rowhome discharge lines run to the curb or the rear alley, routed and pitched so they stay clear through winter.
- Do I need a permit for alley discharge in the city?
- Often, yes — we pull and coordinate any permit the work requires as part of the scope, not as a surprise line item after.
