Re-Grading
The best yard drainage solutions start with fixing the grade of your soil. This enables the water to drain freely away from the foundation of your home or a problem spot in your yard.
Downspout Water Diversion
Puddling near downspouts is one of the most common issues we see. Ideally, downspouts should kick out away from the home's foundation at about 6-10 feet. A buried PVC downspout extension could be installed to direct the water drainage away from the foundation.
French Drains
French drains are a trench system that is dug in the middle or along the wet area of a yard. Essentially, a French drain system is a "sponge" that will collect the surface water and direct it to a different location.
