Most drainage work in Knoxville gets done as a side job — by a landscaper between plantings, or a gutter crew that also "does drains." That's how yards end up with corrugated pipe in a bare trench that silts shut in three years.
We only do drainage. Diagnosing where water comes from, designing the path that moves it away, trenching in red clay, and building systems with the boring details that make them last — filter fabric, real slope, rigid pipe, and a discharge point that's actually legal. It's not glamorous work. It's just the work that keeps water out of your crawl space.
How we work
Free estimates, fixed quotes. We walk the property, show you where the water is going and why, and give you one number. If the honest fix is cheaper than the one you expected to need — a regraded swale instead of a full french drain — the quote says so.
Cheapest effective fix first. Drainage problems have an order of operations: roof water, then grading, then collection systems. We diagnose in that order because it's what we'd do at our own place.
Local conditions, local designs. East Tennessee red clay, ridge-and-valley slopes, crawl-space foundations, and 50 inches of rain a year are the design constraints for everything we build. Systems designed for sandy Florida soil fail here; ours are built for here.
