At Paltrin, we understand that how your home interacts with water is just as important as how it uses energy. We design and retrofit water management systems that manage stormwater responsibly, reduce runoff, and support a healthier local environment for Minnesota.
With the right solutions, managing runoff doesn’t just protect infrastructure; it helps recharge groundwater, prevent erosion, and improve local water quality.
A rain garden is one of the most effective and elegant ways to manage stormwater on your property. Designed to collect runoff from roofs, driveways, and walkways, these gardens temporarily hold water and allow it to naturally filter into the ground. Planted with native perennials and deep-rooted ornamentals, rain gardens support pollinators, reduce flooding, and add seasonal interest to your yard. Best of all, they’re tailored to your site and aesthetic preferences, whether you prefer a natural look or a refined design.
Rain barrels and cisterns give you a direct way to reuse the water your home collects. Connected to downspouts, these systems gather nutrient-rich rainwater you can use to irrigate gardens or supplement landscaping during dry spells. It’s a simple solution that reduces demand on municipal water and supports your plants without added chemicals. With optional timers or pumps, these systems can be as basic or as automated as you like.
At Paltrin, we believe that every part of your home, indoors and out, should work in harmony. That’s why we integrate stormwater solutions like rain gardens and capture systems into a broader strategy that prioritizes energy efficiency, indoor air quality, and long-term durability.
Whether you’re building new or upgrading what you have, we’ll help you create a home that handles the elements wisely and supports the health of your family and your environment.
Let’s talk about how Paltrin can help you implement stormwater strategies that make sense for your home, your values, and your environment.
