French Drain Installation
Our French Drain systems use gravity-powered perforated pipes and gravel trenches to redirect surface and groundwater away from properties. Designed for Houston's clay soil and heavy rainfall, these systems prevent foundation damage and yard flooding. Built with XL catch basins and dual-pump redundancies, they ensure 10x faster water expulsion during hurricanes or flash floods.
Root Re-Router
This eco-friendly solution uses Rhizophagus irregularis fungi to naturally redirect tree roots away from foundations and pipes. The mycorrhizal network enhances soil health while preventing root intrusion into drainage systems. Applied via targeted injection, it offers permanent protection without harming trees or requiring excavation.
Hydro Jetting Services
High-pressure water jetting clears blockages in storm drains, sewer lines, and culverts using 4,000 PSI equipment. This method removes debris buildup and root intrusions without damaging pipes. Ideal for maintaining system efficiency and preventing emergency backups during Houston's hurricane season.
Sump Pump Installation
We install dual-switch sump pumps with battery backups to manage groundwater around foundations. Systems include smart monitoring for 24/7 performance tracking and automatic alerts. Designed to operate during power outages, they provide critical protection for basements and crawl spaces.
Culvert Installation
Custom culvert systems channel stormwater under driveways, roads, and landscaping features. Constructed with durable PVC or corrugated metal, they prevent erosion and manage large water volumes. Proper sizing ensures compliance with local drainage regulations while maintaining property aesthetics.

Excellent craftsmanship and attention to detail. If you need a drainage system that will work come hell or high water: literally. Robert and his crew were nothing but professionals throughout the entire process. All questions and concerns were addressed ahead of time with the proper design and plan of execution to follow up. The project was completed in 2 short days and covered every square inch of our exterior property. The risk of not having an optimally engineered drainage system is far too great for Houston weather. Thank you so much for taking care of us and providing such exceptional peace of mind!
