We fix yard drainage problems for homes in Covington, Monroe, Social Circle and across Newton and Walton counties, working out of Mansfield. That means regrading the yard so water runs away from the house, underground gutter and downspout lines, French drains, catch basins and rock swales, and gravel driveways and building pads graded to drain.
Standing water, washed-out beds and a wet crawlspace after every storm all come back to grade. We reshape the ground so water runs away from the house, bury the gutters so downspouts stop dumping at the foundation, and add catch basins and rock where the water needs somewhere to go.
We also grade level pads for barns, garages and sheds, and haul and spread gravel for driveways and parking.

- Underground gutter and downspout lines
- Catch basins, French drains and rock swales

How we build it
Find where the water goes
We walk the property, ideally after a rain, to see where water is coming from and where it can go.
Crowned, compacted driveways
A crowned driveway sheds water to the sides instead of down the middle, which is what keeps it from rutting and washing out.
Questions about drainage & grading
Do you deliver gravel without installing it?
Yes. We can haul and dump, or haul and spread, grade and compact.
Why does my gravel driveway keep washing out?
Usually because it has no crown or no base, so water runs down the middle. Regrading and crowning it with the right stone fixes most of them.

Regrading a yard to keep water out of a crawlspace
After heavy rain was reaching the crawlspace, we regraded the yard away from the house and buried the gutters.

Underground gutter lines and catch basins
Downspouts tied into buried drain lines with catch basins, so roof water stops pooling beside the house.

Slowing hillside erosion with rock
Rock check lines across a steep, washing slope to slow the water down and let the ground hold.
