Drainage / Grading / Excavation

Stop guessing where the water is going.

Colorado soil, sudden heavy storms and tight lot grading make water a recurring property problem here. We identify the actual path the water takes and correct the site so it stops ending up where it shouldn't.

Symptoms we handle

If any of this sounds like your property

  • Water pooling in the yard days after a storm
  • Runoff collecting against the foundation or in a window well
  • Soggy low spots that never dry out
  • Soil washing out of beds, slopes or driveways
  • Downspouts dumping right next to the house
  • Crawlspace or basement moisture after heavy rain
  • Driveways and walkways sitting lower than the surrounding grade
  • New construction that was never graded away from the structure

Water near a foundation is time-sensitive

If you're seeing water against the foundation, in a window well, or moisture inside a basement or crawlspace, flag it in your request. Those requests get prioritized for a site evaluation.

Scope of work

What the work looks like

Site evaluation & grade assessment

We look at where water enters the property, where it collects and where it needs to go. Photos you send up front speed this up significantly.

Regrading & slope correction

Reshaping soil so water moves away from structures instead of toward them. Often the fix that makes everything else unnecessary.

Drainage systems

French drains, dry wells, catch basins, swales and downspout extensions sized for the water the site actually gets.

Excavation & trenching

Trenching for drain lines, digging out failed systems, and site prep work where the scope requires equipment.
