Why water pools in your yard
Standing water usually comes from poor grading, compacted soil, downspouts dumping in the wrong spot, or low areas with nowhere to drain. Finding the real source is step one, because treating only the symptom never lasts.
Common drainage solutions
French drains move subsurface water away, regrading reshapes the surface so water flows where it should, dry wells collect runoff, and downspout extensions carry roof water clear of the foundation. Often the fix is a combination.
Protecting your foundation
A lot of basement moisture starts outside with grading and downspouts. Fixing those is usually cheaper and more effective than interior patches.
Doing it right
Drainage work is mostly invisible once finished, which is exactly why it has to be done correctly. We diagnose the source, install the right solution, and confirm the water flows where it should before we call it done.
