Drainage & Water Management

Our drainage and water management services protect your property by controlling runoff and eliminating standing water. We install French drains, dry wells, and channel drains, combined with precise grading and re-sloping for proper water flow. From problem areas to full site drainage solutions, we deliver reliable systems with proper backfilling and compaction for long-term performance.

Standing water, a wet basement, or a patio that puddles all trace back to grade and drainage. We find where the water comes from and build a path for it: French drains along foundations, dry wells for roof runoff, channel drains across driveways, swales and regrading to move surface water off the property.

Drainage is built into every hardscape project we do, and it is also a standalone service. Trenches are backfilled with clean stone and fabric, pipe is pitched correctly, and the surface is restored.

FAQs

Drainage questions

Not answered here? Send a question or call and ask for Mike.

My yard stays soggy after rain. What are the options?

It depends on where the water comes from. Regrading or a swale fixes surface runoff; a French drain handles water moving through the soil; a dry well or discharge line gets roof water away from the house. We look at the whole lot before recommending one.

Can drainage be added under a new patio or driveway?

Yes, and it should be planned at the same time. Channel drains, catch basins, and pipe runs go in before the base is compacted.
