DRAINAGE

French drains · Yard drainage · Regrading

Your yard shouldn’t hold water. Ours is the crew that makes it stop.

Standing water after every rain. A side yard you can’t mow until Thursday. A downspout dumping against the foundation. Carolina clay doesn’t absorb water — it holds it, until somebody gives that water somewhere better to go.

That’s trench work, pipe work, and grading work — which is to say, it’s the exact work we do all day on septic systems. Same clay. Same water. Same excavator.

What we build

French drains — gravel, fabric, and perforated pipe that intercept water and move it where you want it. Downspout burial — roof water piped away underground instead of dumped at the wall. Regrading — when the real problem is that your yard tilts the wrong way. Surface drains and catch basins — for the spots that flood fast.

Most yard drainage projects: $2,500–$6,000Driven by length, depth, and where the water can discharge. Small single-run jobs come in under that; whole-yard systems go over. We quote per project, not per foot — and the quote includes putting your yard back, graded and seeded, not left looking like a gopher war.

While the excavator’s here

Mobilizing the machine is a fixed cost — yours whether we dig thirty feet or three hundred. If there’s other dirt work on your list (a downspout run, a low spot, a stump, a gravel pad), tell us when we quote. Bundled work is the cheapest work you’ll ever buy from us.
