What It Is
Drainage Solutions & French Drains
Drainage solutions address the movement of surface and subsurface water away from your property. We install French drains, catch basins, swales, dry creek beds, and regrading solutions — matched to your specific drainage problem.
Why It Matters
The right approach makes the difference.
Standing water in Middle Tennessee damages turf, drowns plantings, breeds mosquitoes, and — most critically — creates hydrostatic pressure against foundations. Left unresolved, drainage issues become foundation repair bills.

How It Works
Our Process
Straightforward steps — no surprises, no shortcuts.
Water Flow Assessment
We walk the property during or after rain, identify collection points, measure grade, and trace the water's path from source to problem area.
Solution Design
We select the right combination of French drain, catch basin, swale grading, or downspout rerouting — sometimes it takes more than one approach.
Trenching & System Installation
We trench, install perforated or solid pipe, wrap in filter fabric, backfill with gravel, and daylight the outlet in the correct location.
Final Grade & Restoration
Disturbed areas are regraded, seeded or sodded, and the surface is restored. We test with water to confirm the drainage path works as designed.

Quick Answers
Common Questions
Q.How do I know if I have a drainage problem?
Signs include standing water that remains 24+ hours after rain, wet spots in the lawn, erosion channels, soft/muddy turf areas, and water staining on your foundation. Call us — we'll walk the property and give you an honest assessment.
Q.How long does a French drain installation take?
Most residential French drains take 1–2 days. Larger systems with multiple catch basins or long pipe runs may take 3–4 days.
Q.Do French drains require permits in Tennessee?
Simple residential French drains typically don't require permits. Work near public easements, streams, or larger grading changes may require a grading permit. We advise on this at the estimate stage.
