Surface Drainage Installation to Resolve Yard Water Pooling - Lewisville, NC

In this Lewisville, NC home, the homeowners were experiencing major standing water and poor surface drainage in the front yard. Water frequently collected near the foundation and landscaping, causing soggy soil, erosion, and increased moisture concerns around the home. Our team identified that the yard did not have a proper way to channel water away from the property, which can lead to long-term structural and moisture issues if left unaddressed.

To solve this, our crew installed a surface drain and a buried discharge line to give water a dedicated path away from the home. After excavating the problem area, we positioned a durable catch basin at the low point and tied it into a PVC drainage line that directs runoff away from the foundation. Once the system was secured, everything was carefully backfilled, leveled, and prepped so it can naturally blend back into the homeowner’s yard. This new drainage system will help prevent pooling, protect the foundation, and keep the lawn healthier year-round.
