French Drain Installation

Nothing's more frustrating than watching your beautiful yard turn into a swamp every time it rains. You've probably tried quick fixes - I know I would! But temporary solutions just don't cut it when water's threatening your home's foundation. Our team installs French drains that transform your property from water-logged to worry-free, letting you actually enjoy your outdoor space again.

Real Solutions for Real Homeowners

Just last week, I met with a family in Queen Anne who couldn’t let their kids play in the backyard anymore – it had basically become a permanent mud pit. Their faces lit up when I explained how a properly installed French drain would give their kids back their play space. Now their yard dries quickly after rain, and those muddy footprints tracking through the house are just a memory.

You know those gorgeous old Seattle homes with the stunning landscaping? Had a client with a century-old maple tree they absolutely adored, but their basement kept flooding. Other companies wanted to tear everything up, but we designed the drain system around those precious roots. Now they’ve got a dry basement AND their beloved tree. It’s about finding creative solutions that protect what matters to you.

Before we dig a single trench, we walk your property together. I’ll show you exactly how water moves across your yard and where it’s getting stuck. We’ll talk about your gardening plans, your kids’ play areas, maybe even where you’d like to put that fire pit someday. Your French drain shouldn’t just fix today’s problems – it should work with your future plans too.

Not Your Average Drainage Company

Look, I could bore you with technical specs about our equipment (trust me, we’ve got the good stuff). But what really matters is how carefully we work around your prized roses and that stone path you laid yourself. We protect your landscaping like it’s our own because, well, we’re gardeners too.

Every person on our crew goes through intensive training – not just in drain installation, but in landscape preservation too. We’re kind of obsessed with getting the details right, from the exact slope of the trenches to selecting the perfect size gravel. Years of experience have taught us that these little things make the difference between a drain that works for a season and one that works for decades.

After we’re done, I’ll walk you through everything we’ve installed. No fancy technical jargon – just straight talk about how your new system works and what to watch for. And if you ever have questions? Just call. We’re your drainage partners for the long haul. Ready to tackle those water problems once and for all? Let’s talk about your yard.
