Drainage
Diagnose.
Dig.
Daylight.
The first step in any drainage job is figuring out where the water actually comes from and where it needs to go. Most wet-spot problems aren't really "this spot" problems — they're "the whole lot pushes water here" problems. Fix it at the source and the symptom goes away.
What we build
- Swales. Shallow, shaped channels that move surface water around the property without needing a pipe.
- French drains. Perforated pipe in gravel, wrapped in fabric, buried below the surface. Great for subsurface water.
- Curtain drains. Intercept water before it reaches the house, barn, or shop.
- Surface regrading. Sometimes the fix isn't a drain at all — it's shaping the ground so water runs away from the structure instead of toward it.
- Daylight discharges. Getting the water out to where it can't do any more damage.
- Culvert work. Driveway culverts, replacements, and sizing upgrades.
What to expect
Drainage jobs are usually 1–3 days for most properties. We'll show you the plan on the ground before we dig — flags, chalk lines, whatever it takes so you can picture it. When it's done, you'll see a dry surface where there used to be a wet one, and the first real rain confirms it.
