Professional French drain installation and repair throughout Parker County and surrounding areas. We understand North Texas soil conditions and design systems that work.
French drains are underground drainage systems designed to redirect water away from your property, preventing flooding and foundation damage.
French drains consist of a perforated pipe surrounded by gravel, buried in a trench. Water seeps through the gravel and into the pipe, which carries it away from your property to a safe discharge point.
French drains are ideal for properties with standing water, foundation flooding, or areas where water pools after rain. They're especially effective in North Texas clay soil conditions.
We dig a trench, install perforated pipe, surround it with gravel, and cover with soil. The system is designed to work with your property's natural slope and drainage patterns.
Professional French drain installation protects your foundation and prevents costly water damage. The cost of fixing foundation damage from poor drainage can be 10-20x more than installing proper drainage upfront. We provide free assessments with transparent pricing.
North Texas presents unique challenges for drainage systems, and French drains are particularly effective in our area due to our soil conditions and weather patterns.
North Texas clay soil expands when wet and contracts when dry, creating foundation movement and drainage challenges. French drains work well with clay soil because they provide a consistent path for water to escape, reducing soil expansion around your foundation.
Our area experiences sudden, intense rainfall that can overwhelm inadequate drainage systems. French drains are designed to handle these heavy downpours by providing a large surface area for water collection and efficient transport away from your property.
In North Texas, foundation damage from water is a major concern. French drains protect your foundation by keeping water away from the base of your home, preventing the soil expansion that causes foundation movement and cracks.
