Stop Standing Water and Protect Your Property

North Texas clay soil drains slowly, so heavy rain can leave yards soggy, wash out beds, and send water toward your foundation. DFW Landscape & Lighting Solutions finds where water is collecting and why, then installs practical drainage solutions that move it away from your home or commercial property for good.

Drainage FAQs

How much does a drainage solution cost?

It depends on the problem. The main cost factors are the size of the area that holds water, the type of solution needed (French drain, regrading, or rerouting water), how far the water needs to travel, and what landscaping needs to be restored afterward. We provide exact pricing after a free on-site estimate.

What causes standing water in my yard?

Usually a mix of low spots, compacted clay soil, and downspouts that empty too close to the house. North Texas clay drains slowly, so water needs to be directed away instead of waiting for it to soak in.

How do I know if I have a drainage problem?

Common signs include water that stands for hours or days after rain, soggy or muddy areas, soil washing away, dead patches of grass, and water pooling near your foundation. Photos taken during or after a rain help us pinpoint the cause.

What is a French drain?

A French drain is a gravel-filled trench with a perforated pipe that collects water underground and carries it away from problem areas. It is one of the most effective ways to fix soggy spots and keep water away from your home.

Can regrading fix my drainage?

Often, yes. Regrading reshapes the ground so water flows away from your home and out of low spots instead of collecting there. Depending on your yard, we may combine grading with a French drain or other solution for the best result.

Can poor drainage damage my foundation?

It can. Water that pools near your home makes clay soil swell and shrink, which stresses foundations over time. Moving water away from the house is one of the best ways to protect your home in North Texas.

Will my yard be torn up?

We dig only where the drainage needs to go, then restore the area with soil, sod, rock, or mulch. Our goal is to fix the problem and leave your landscape looking finished.

Do you handle commercial and HOA drainage?

Yes. We solve drainage problems for commercial properties, HOA common areas, and community entrances throughout Dallas-Fort Worth.
