Drainage Correction & Grading – Frequently Asked Questions

​​

  • What causes drainage problems on my property?
    Poor grading, compacted soil, blocked ditches, or lack of appropriate pitch regarding the grade of soil can all cause water to pool or flow toward unwanted areas, or places it can cause damage, like your foundation.
     

  • Can grading fix standing water issues?
    Yes. Grading your property to divert water away from structures will reduce standing water, lessen the effects of erosion, and prevent damages due to runoff.
     

  • Do you install drainage systems?
    We handle the excavation and installation of French drains, trench drains and all surface water solutions. 
     

  • How do I know if I need drainage work?
    Signs include water pooling, soft spots, foundation cracks, mold, or visible erosion. We’ll inspect your site and recommend a solution.
     

  • Do you offer drainage work on rural properties?
    Yes. We serve farms, acreages, and undeveloped land where drainage control is critical.

Read the 5-Star Reviews from verified clients across East Texas. Harry Magness “Norman and his son did an excellent job clearing land for our pasture. I was pleased with the results, including clean up.” Anne Stone “Norman and his team completed the work, including cleaning up after demolition. They were professional and a pleasure to work with. Highly recommended.” Jake R “Good communication.” Danny Black “Norman did what good contractors should do: Be prompt, keep affected people informed, respect adjoining property and do what he says he’s going to do. Very clean and professional job for reasonable prices. I would definitely recommend him.” JD Wilson “Norman did a great job taking down a house for me and did it quickly. I was mostly impressed with how clean the jobsite was left at the end, because as a general contractor, I’ve seen many jobs left a mess at the end. I would recommend Norman to anyone asking for help with their project.” Bobby Watkins “Norman and his son did a great job demolishing our storage building that was damaged in recent storms.” Carla Swanson “We needed someone to clean up our barn after it was destroyed by a storm. Norman was quick to come out and give us a quote. He communicated well with us and was very respectful and careful. Happy customer!” Laura Livingston “I used Tyler Ten to demolish an abandoned building on a property I purchased. I would absolutely use their service again. Great communication, fair pricing and job completed as proposed.” Allan Hukill “Great service, great price, great response time. I am a very satisfied customer.” Joaquin Ortiz “Great to work with. Had some clean up to do and they had the equipment to facilitate that. Very thankful — Norman has got you covered.” I.D. Walker “WOW! What an experience. I wish all my subs operated the way Norm and his sons do. Showed up on time for the project review, provided his quote for services, provided a start and completion date at this initial meeting — and then HE DID EXACTLY WHAT HE PROMISED TO DO. Hauled away all the trash and left the jobsite spotless. I’ve had them back for more work with the same results. On a scale of 1-10, I rate the father and son team a 20.” Waylon Fulton “Great communication and great price. Very easy to do business with and I will definitely use them in the future.” John Blanton “They brought down a two-story garage apartment and attached storage shed that was in close proximity to another garage. Everything went as planned with no problems. Did an excellent job removing all the debris and made leveling the site a breeze. Very pleased with the results. Good job.” Randy Miller “This company did an excellent job. Very good communication from start to finish. All anyone can ask for, straight up the whole job.”
