Say Goodbye to Soggy Grounds: Professional Landscape Drainage Solutions
Is standing water turning your yard into a muddy mess? Are you worried about foundation damage or mosquito infestations caused by poor drainage? Our professional landscape drainage services offer effective and long-lasting solutions to manage excess water, protect your property, and create a healthier, more enjoyable outdoor environment.
The Critical Role of Proper Landscape Drainage
Effective drainage is essential for the health and longevity of your landscape and the structural integrity of your home. Poor drainage can lead to a multitude of problems, including waterlogged lawns, plant root rot, soil erosion, basement flooding, pest breeding grounds, and unsightly puddles. Our expert team understands the principles of hydrology and soil mechanics to design and install drainage systems that efficiently redirect water away from vulnerable areas.
Our Comprehensive Landscape Drainage Services Include:
- French Drains: Subsurface trenches filled with gravel and a perforated pipe to collect and redirect groundwater.
- Surface Drains (Channel Drains): Linear drains installed at ground level to capture and channel surface runoff.
- Catch Basins & Grated Drains: Structures designed to collect surface water and direct it into underground pipes.
- Swales & Diversion Ditches: Gently sloped channels designed to intercept and redirect surface water flow.
- Dry Wells: Underground storage areas that temporarily hold excess water, allowing it to slowly percolate into the surrounding soil.
- Sump Pump Installation & Discharge Lines: Systems to remove water from basements or low-lying areas and discharge it safely away from the foundation.
- Grading & Re-Grading for Drainage: Reshaping the landscape to promote natural water flow and prevent pooling.
- Permeable Paving Solutions: Installing surfaces that allow water to infiltrate into the ground, reducing runoff.
Our Expert Drainage System Installation Process:
- Detailed Site Assessment: Identifying drainage problem areas, evaluating soil type, and analyzing water flow patterns.
- Custom Drainage System Design: Developing a tailored drainage solution based on your property's specific needs and challenges.
- Precise Excavation & Trenching: Carefully excavating trenches and installing necessary components like pipes and basins.
- Proper Material Installation: Using high-quality materials like perforated pipes, gravel, and filter fabric for optimal performance.
- Accurate Grading & Slope Adjustments: Ensuring proper slopes for efficient water flow within the drainage system.
- Secure Connection & Discharge: Connecting drainage lines to appropriate discharge points, away from your home and neighboring properties.
- Backfilling & Surface Restoration: Carefully backfilling trenches and restoring the landscape to a clean and aesthetically pleasing condition.
- System Testing & Verification: Ensuring the newly installed drainage system functions correctly and effectively manages water runoff.

Precise Excavation and Trenching
Carefully digging trenches and excavation areas according to the design specifications, ensuring proper depth and slope for effective water flow.
Installation of Drainage Components
Laying perforated pipes, installing catch basins, building swales, and placing gravel or other filter materials as outlined in the drainage plan.
Ensuring Proper Slope and Grading
Verifying and adjusting the slopes within the drainage system and the surrounding landscape to facilitate the intended direction of water flow.
Connection to Discharge Points
Connecting the drainage system to appropriate outlets, such as storm drains, dry wells, or designated runoff areas, ensuring safe and effective water disposal.
