Grassed-Slope Trenching for Foundation Drainage

A narrow hand-trenched channel was cut along the slope next to the home to route runoff away from the foundation and HVAC pad. This minimal-disturbance trench prepares a line for perforated drainpipe, stopping sheet flow, reducing erosion, and keeping saturated soil from undermining the house or lawn.

Dry-Well Excavation & Gravel Infiltration Basin

A deep excavation was dug and bedded with clean stone to form a dry-well — an underground reservoir that collects roof and yard runoff and lets it slowly infiltrate. Proper depth, gravel backfill, and a perforated connection keep surface water from pooling and reduce pressure on yard soils.

Catch-Basin & Trench Drain Installation in Muddy Conditions

A trench and catch basin are being installed to capture standing water and direct it into corrugated drainage pipe. The crew sets the basin to the correct invert and slope, then backfills with stone to promote flow and infiltration — a durable fix for soggy lawns and localized flooding.
