Request a drainage inspection to identify problem areas and get a custom plan.

How Our Process Works

We start by walking your property to identify where water collects, how it flows during rain, and where it's causing damage. In Ocoee, clay soil makes drainage planning critical since water doesn't absorb easily and tends to pool or run toward structures.

Evergreen Excavation & Landscaping designs systems to manage Tennessee's intense rain periods and clay soil conditions. We install perforated pipe, gravel bedding, and proper slope to move water efficiently away from your foundation, driveway, or yard. Each system is tailored to your property's topography and drainage needs.

After installation, we test the system to confirm water flows as planned and make any final adjustments. We also coordinate with grading or landscaping work to ensure the finished result looks natural and functions reliably during every storm.

What to Expect When You Book

Below are answers to questions clients in Ocoee often ask about drainage systems and what the installation process involves.

What is a French drain and how does it work?
A French drain is a trench filled with gravel and perforated pipe that collects and redirects water away from problem areas. It's one of the most effective ways to prevent foundation damage and yard flooding.
Can you install drainage without tearing up my yard?
We minimize disruption by planning routes carefully and restoring areas after installation. Most drainage work is completed in one to three days depending on system size and site conditions.
How do you handle clay soil during installation?
Clay soil requires proper excavation and gravel bedding to ensure water flows through the system instead of pooling. We adjust trench depth and slope to work with Ocoee's soil composition.
Do you integrate drainage with grading or landscaping?
Yes. We coordinate drainage systems with grading, landscaping, and driveway needs so everything works together and your property stays functional and attractive.
How long does a drainage system last?
When installed correctly with quality materials, a French drain or drainage system can last 20 to 30 years or more with minimal maintenance.

Standing water and foundation concerns don't have to be a constant source of stress. A well-designed drainage system protects your property and gives you peace of mind during every rainstorm. Reach out today to schedule an inspection and get a solution in place.
