French Drain & Yard Drainage Contractor in DFW
Standing water is usually a sign of a bigger problem, not just a wet spot. Chris plans drainage around your slope, soil, downspouts, and where the water actually needs to go. That includes French drains, surface drains, trenching, and routing that keeps water away from the house and makes the yard usable again.

Questions
Drainage FAQs
What is the difference between French drains and surface drains?
French drains move subsurface water through a buried system, while surface drains collect water from low points or hard surfaces.
Can drainage work protect a foundation?
Drainage can help route water away from the home, but the right solution depends on grade, soil, roof runoff, and site layout.
Can drainage be done before sod or hardscape?
Yes. Drainage should often be handled before installing new sod, gravel, stone, or concrete features.
