Yard Drainage & Grading in Kansas City

A yard that stays wet is a yard you cannot use, and a slow-motion threat to your foundation. We correct the grade and add drainage so water leaves instead of lingering.

Standing water and soggy low spots usually come down to one thing: the ground is not draining the right direction. Sometimes the fix is re-grading the surface so water flows away from the house; sometimes it needs drainage added underneath.

We diagnose the whole picture, slope, soil, downspouts, and low areas, then correct it so your yard drains, dries out, and stays usable. No more mud, no more mosquito pools, no more water creeping toward the foundation.

How we fix a yard that will not drain

Grading correction

We reshape the surface so water flows away from the home and off the low spots, the foundation of good drainage.

Swales and channels

Where needed, we shape gentle swales to guide surface water to a safe outlet without an eyesore.

Subsurface drainage

For chronic wet areas, we add French drains or catch basins to pull water down and away.

Downspout and runoff management

We make sure roof and hardscape runoff is not feeding the problem.

Restored, usable turf

We finish with fresh grade and sod or seed so you get your yard back.

Good questions

Frequently asked.

Is my problem grading or drainage?
Often both. Re-grading fixes surface flow; added drainage handles subsurface and volume. We assess your specific site and recommend the least invasive fix that actually solves it.
Can you fix standing water without tearing up the whole yard?
Frequently, yes. Targeted grading, a swale, or a short French drain can solve a lot. We aim for the most effective fix with the least disruption, then restore what we touch.
Why does water run toward my house?
Settling, past landscaping, or original construction can leave the grade sloping the wrong way. Correcting that slope is one of the most important things you can do to protect the foundation.
Do you re-sod afterward?
Yes. We restore the area with sod or seed so you are left with a usable, good-looking yard, not a construction site.
