Yard Drainage FAQs
Why is my yard always wet?+
Usually some combination of clay soil, poor grading, and undersized gutters. A real diagnosis (not a guess) is step one.
Will fixing my drainage help my foundation?+
Yes — keeping water away from the slab is the single best thing you can do for foundation stability in Texas.
Can drains tie into the storm sewer?+
Almost never in DFW — most cities prohibit it. We daylight to a legal outlet instead.
