A drainage analysis models where water goes on a parcel — flow accumulation and the modelled outlet from LiDAR terrain data — and screens the sections of the property most at risk of standing water, before anyone digs or pours.
Stanly drainage runs downhill to the lakes. Foothill parcels east of the Uwharries shed water over shallow, rocky ground toward Tillery and Badin coves, and a lot that drains 'fine' in a dry month can deliver its whole slope's runoff across a driveway or a neighbour's yard in one storm. A drainage analysis models flow and outlet from LiDAR terrain and screens the sections at risk, so a Norwood lake lot or an Albemarle hillside gets a terrain-based answer before grading or building. Modelled drainage is always labelled MODELLED, NOT SURVEYED.
Serving Albemarle, Norwood, Locust, Badin, Oakboro and the rest of Stanly County from our base in Candor.
Not from records alone — buried infrastructure is shown by evidence tier and stays Unknown without an NC 811 locate and field verification.
The analysis is the plan, not the fix. RHS also does the field work — and a Dossier + Call fee is credited toward a job booked within 60 days.

Data evaluation from public records and modelled analysis. Not a survey, not a legal zoning determination, not an engineering design. Modelled drainage is MODELLED, NOT SURVEYED. Every report is human-reviewed before it is sent.
