Oregon's Rainfall Demands Real Drainage

The Portland metro area averages over 40 inches of rain per year — and most of it falls between October and April. Clay-heavy soils don't drain well, and many older properties were never designed with adequate drainage. The result is standing water, saturated yards, flooded crawl spaces, and erosion. We've been solving drainage problems in this region for over 40 years. We know the soils, we know the grades, and we know what works.

What We Do

Drainage Services

French Drain Installation

Perforated pipe in a gravel-filled trench, wrapped in filter fabric to intercept and redirect groundwater and surface runoff. The most effective solution for soggy yards, wet basements, and saturated foundation areas.

Surface Drainage & Swales

Grading and shaping the ground surface to direct water away from structures and toward appropriate outlets. Sometimes the simplest solution — proper surface drainage — is all that's needed.

Catch Basin Installation

Installing catch basins and area drains to collect surface water at low points and route it through underground pipe to a suitable outlet. Essential for driveways, patios, and low-lying yard areas.

Downspout & Roof Drain Routing

Extending downspouts underground and routing roof drainage away from the foundation. Roof runoff concentrated at downspouts is one of the most common causes of foundation moisture problems.

Curtain Drain Systems

Intercepting uphill groundwater before it reaches your foundation or yard. Curtain drains are installed upslope to capture and redirect subsurface water flow.

Erosion Control & Stabilization

Addressing active erosion with rip-rap, retaining walls, swales, and revegetation. We stabilize slopes and channels to prevent ongoing soil loss and property damage.

Why It Matters

Water Always Finds a Way — Make Sure It's Your Way

Unmanaged water is the single biggest threat to residential property in the Pacific Northwest. Foundation damage, mold, erosion, and structural failure all trace back to water going where it shouldn't. A properly designed drainage system protects your investment for decades.

Foundation moisture is the leading cause of crawl space mold and rot
Standing water in yards kills landscaping and creates pest habitat
Erosion on slopes can undermine structures and damage neighboring properties
Proper drainage increases property value and reduces insurance risk
