Protect Your Investment

Why Proper Drainage Matters

Water should flow away from your home—not toward it. North Texas weather can change quickly. Heavy storms, expansive clay soils, and poor grading can all contribute to drainage issues that worsen over time if left unaddressed.

Without proper drainage, excess water can lead to:

A professionally designed drainage system helps protect your property while improving the long-term health of your landscape.

  • Foundation concerns
  • Landscape erosion
  • Dead or unhealthy grass
  • Plant damage
  • Standing water
  • Mosquito breeding areas
  • Muddy lawns
  • Hardscape movement
  • Damage to patios and walkways
  • Water intrusion around your home

Our Drainage Solutions

Customized water management for every property — no two properties drain the same way. Our team evaluates your property's elevation, grading, soil composition, landscaping, irrigation, and existing drainage before recommending the most effective solution.

French Drains

French drains are one of the most effective ways to redirect groundwater and surface water away from problem areas. These systems collect excess water below ground and move it safely away from your home’s foundation, lawn, planting beds, and outdoor living spaces. French drains are ideal for:

  • Water pooling in lawns
  • Foundation protection
  • Low areas
  • Landscape beds
  • Side yards
  • Sloped properties

Channel Drains

Channel drains collect water from hard surfaces before it has an opportunity to pool or flow toward your home. They are commonly installed around:

  • Patios
  • Pool decks
  • Driveways
  • Walkways
  • Outdoor kitchens
  • Garage entrances
  • Courtyards

These systems help reduce standing water while improving safety and protecting surrounding hardscapes.

Catch Basins

Catch basins collect large amounts of runoff during heavy rainfall and direct water into underground drainage systems. They’re an excellent solution for areas where water naturally collects and can be integrated into larger drainage systems for maximum efficiency.

Downspout Drainage Extensions

Many drainage issues begin at the roof. Without proper extensions, roof runoff often discharges directly beside the home’s foundation. We install underground downspout drainage systems that safely carry water away from your home and discharge it in appropriate locations, reducing erosion and helping protect your foundation.

Property Grading

Sometimes the best drainage solution begins with reshaping the landscape. Proper grading helps direct water away from structures while creating natural drainage patterns that reduce standing water and erosion. Our grading services are often combined with other drainage improvements for the best long-term results.

Dry Creek Beds

Dry creek beds combine function with visual appeal. These decorative drainage features naturally guide stormwater across the property while adding texture, character, and erosion control to the landscape. They’re especially effective in larger yards where natural drainage can become a landscape feature instead of a problem.

Swales & Surface Drainage

For larger properties or areas experiencing widespread runoff, swales and surface drainage systems help redirect water while preserving the natural contours of the landscape. These solutions are designed to manage stormwater efficiently while minimizing disruption to your yard.

Erosion Control

Moving water can wash away soil, mulch, and planting beds over time. Our erosion control solutions help stabilize slopes, protect landscape investments, preserve hardscapes, and reduce maintenance caused by excessive runoff.

Local Experience Matters

Drainage Designed for North Texas

Drainage systems that work in other parts of the country don’t always perform well in North Texas. The Dallas and Dallas Fort Worth area presents unique challenges, including:

Because we understand these local conditions, we design drainage systems that address the underlying cause of water problems rather than simply treating the symptoms.

  • Expansive clay soils
  • Heavy seasonal rainfall
  • Flash flooding
  • New construction runoff
  • Flat lots
  • Steep backyard slopes
  • Soil movement during drought and heavy rain

Drainage & Landscape Design

The best drainage systems work together with your landscape.

At Bare Roots, drainage isn’t treated as an afterthought. We integrate water management into the overall design of your outdoor space so drainage improvements blend naturally with your lawn, planting beds, patios, retaining walls, and outdoor living areas.

Our integrated approach protects your investment while maintaining the beauty of your property.

Frequently Asked Questions

How do I know if my yard has a drainage problem?

Signs include standing water after rain, soggy grass, erosion, mulch washing away, water pooling near your foundation, muddy areas, and persistent wet spots that don’t dry out.

What is the best drainage solution?

Every property is different. Depending on your landscape, we may recommend a French drain, channel drain, grading improvements, catch basins, dry creek beds, or a combination of solutions. We evaluate your property before making recommendations.

Will drainage improvements affect the appearance of my yard?

No. Our drainage systems are designed to integrate with your landscape. Many solutions, such as underground drains and decorative dry creek beds, improve both function and aesthetics.

Can drainage problems damage my foundation?

Yes. Excess water collecting around your home’s foundation can contribute to soil movement, settlement, and other issues over time. Proper drainage helps reduce this risk by directing water away from the structure.

Can drainage be installed during a landscape renovation?

Absolutely. In fact, it’s often the ideal time to address drainage. Incorporating drainage into a new landscape design helps ensure the entire property functions as intended from the start.
