Drainage
Standing water, erosion, and a wet basement or crawlspace usually trace back to grade and drainage. We start by observing how water moves across your site, then plan collection and conveyance that protects the areas you actually use.
Where this fits
- Water pooling near a foundation, patio, or low point in the yard
- Erosion along a slope, wall, or bed line
- Planning drainage as part of a new patio, wall, or outdoor living project
Planning considerations
- Existing grade and where water currently collects
- Downstream discharge point and any easements
- Interfaces with walls, patios, and planting areas
- Seasonal variation — a dry-weather site visit does not tell the whole story
Our approach
We plan drainage the same way we plan every project: discovery and a site visit to understand your property, a clear scope before anything is scheduled, construction with ongoing communication if anything changes, and a walkthrough once the work is finished.
We describe drainage work as addressing observed conditions, not as a universal or permanent fix for every site. Every recommendation is specific to what we can see and verify on your property.
Recent work
Cedar Ridge projects that included drainage.
Drainage projects come up often in Mechanicsville, Tuckahoe, Chesterfield County, and across Greater Richmond more broadly — subject to project fit.
