A More Thorough Inspection.
A Better-Informed Client.
A Smarter Use of Your Time.
Drainage Intelligence Reports™ give you a terrain-based read on where water collects and converges before you arrive — so your inspections go faster and deeper, and your clients walk away with insight a standard walkthrough can't provide.
Learn how Drainage Intelligence can support your inspections.
You Inspect the Structure. Who Inspects the Terrain?
Standard home inspections evaluate the building — foundation, roof, plumbing, electrical. But the land around the structure? That's where drainage begins. Water follows topography, and most inspectors don't have the tools to assess how terrain directs runoff toward or away from a property.
Drainage is the most overlooked property consideration. Water damage causes more insurance claims than fire, theft, and natural disasters combined.
Drainage patterns are written into the terrain — subtle slopes, convergence zones, and low points that aren't visible during a walkthrough. By the time water damage appears, it's been developing for years.
Average cost to fix drainage-related damage. Clients who understand their property's drainage patterns early can make informed decisions about maintenance and improvements.
"The best inspectors don't just report what they see — they help clients understand what they can't."
Three Steps. Built Into Your Workflow.
Request access for your team, then add drainage intelligence to inspections without an extra site visit or new field equipment.
Request an Invitation
Request an invitation, then add drainage intelligence to your inspection workflow.
Screen Before You Arrive
Enter the property address from your schedule and generate the Drainage Intelligence Report™ on demand — ready in minutes from public USGS LiDAR data, no site visit needed.
Inspect Smarter, Keep the Margin
Walk in knowing where to focus your foundation, crawlspace, and basement checks. Share the report with your client as part of an informed inspection conversation.
Your Margin, On Time You've Already Booked
You're already on site inspecting the foundation perimeter, crawlspace, and basement. A Drainage Intelligence Report™ adds terrain context without another trip and can support a higher-value inspection conversation.
Support Better Conversations
Use terrain intelligence to give clients clearer context alongside your professional inspection findings.
No Extra Fieldwork
The report generates from public USGS LiDAR before you arrive. You bill premium value without adding a site visit, a return trip, or new equipment.
Additive Profit
It rides on time you've already booked, so every report is margin on top of the inspection you were going to perform anyway — not a separate job to schedule.
One Clear Workflow
Nothing to stock and nothing to track. Request an invitation, then use the report to bring terrain context to the work you already do.
A Report That Speaks for Itself
Each Drainage Intelligence Report™ delivers professional, data-driven analysis — flow patterns plus the terrain, soil, and rainfall context behind them — that your clients won't find anywhere else.
Flow Path Mapping
Visualizes how water moves across the property based on terrain elevation — showing primary flow routes and drainage direction.
Ponding Risk Zones
Identifies topographic depressions where water is likely to collect after rainfall, flagging potential pooling areas.
Convergence Analysis
Maps where multiple drainage flows meet, creating areas of concentrated runoff that may impact foundations and landscaping.
Contour Visualization
Professional contour maps showing the subtle elevation changes that drive drainage patterns — invisible to the naked eye.
Structure Proximity
Assesses how drainage patterns relate to buildings on the property, highlighting areas where flow may direct water toward structures.
Contributing Factor Context
Interprets the factors driving the findings — terrain relief, soil infiltration, and local rainfall — giving your clients the bigger-picture hydrologic context behind the maps, no technical background needed.
We've Heard These Before
"I'm not a drainage expert"
You don't need to be. The report is generated entirely by Low Point Labs. You're offering access to a service, not performing the analysis yourself. Think of it like offering radon testing — you don't process the results, you deliver them.
"My clients won't pay for extras"
Drainage is one of the most frequently overlooked property considerations, and repairs can be costly. When framed as early awareness — not an upsell — most buyers see the value immediately. The report adds a topographic drainage screening that an inspection alone doesn't cover.
"I don't have time for add-ons"
Generating a report takes about a minute from your dashboard. Enter the address, confirm coverage, generate. No site visit, no equipment, no coordination — the report is ready before you arrive and you forward it to your client. It's less work than writing a single section of your inspection report.
Put It to Work on Your Next Inspection
Pull a report before your next inspection, walk in knowing where water collects, and include it in your client conversations.
