DRAINAGE · COLLEGE STATION
Drainage & French Drains in College Station, TX
Heavy rain on flat lots and clay soil is how College Station yards end up soggy for days. We install French drains, downspout lines, and catch basins, and regrade where the ground slopes the wrong way.
SCOPE
What this service covers.
Only the work we actually do — no padded list. If you are not sure whether your job fits, send a photo and we will tell you straight.
French drains and drainage systems
Perforated pipe in a gravel trench, routed to daylight or a catch basin, to carry water away from the foundation and out of the yard.
Downspout and surface drains
Tying gutters into buried lines and setting catch basins where water ponds after a storm.
Grading
Reshaping ground so it falls away from the house and toward where you want the water to go.
Excavation and site prep
Removing old slabs, cutting for patios and walls, and preparing ground before anything gets built.

Why people call about this.
Water against the foundation
Ponding at the slab after every rain is the most expensive problem in the yard to ignore.
A yard that stays soggy
Standing water for days after a storm usually means the grade is wrong, the soil is sealed, or both.
A project that needs the ground ready first
Patios, walls, and beds all last longer when the drainage is sorted before they go in.
COLLEGE STATION, TX
Why College Station yards hold water.
The same few causes show up across town.
Flat lots, tight spacing
Newer subdivisions put houses close together on lots with very little fall. Water from two roofs ends up in one side yard with nowhere to go.
Clay that seals
Once the clay is saturated, water sits on top of it. Surface drains and French drains give it a path out instead of waiting for it to soak in.
Water at the slab
Ponding against a slab foundation after every storm is the most expensive yard problem to ignore. Downspout tie-ins and grading away from the house are usually the first fix.
