Drainage Solutions for DFW Homes: Protect Your Yard and Foundation

December 1, 2025

If you're dealing with standing water, soil erosion, or even signs of foundation damage, your yard likely needs a drainage solution. Drainage problems aren’t just an inconvenience—they can lead to costly structural repairs and unhealthy lawn conditions.

That’s why Texscape Solutions & Exteriors offers expert drainage system design and installation for homeowners across the Dallas–Fort Worth Metroplex. We provide custom drainage solutions that prevent water buildup and protect your property long-term.

Common Signs You Need a Drainage Solution

Homeowners in DFW often overlook early signs of drainage issues. Here are a few to watch out for:

  • Pooled water near your home’s foundation
  • Mushy or soggy patches in your lawn
  • Water stains on your basement or exterior walls
  • Mildew or mold near the base of your home
  • Erosion around landscape beds or walkways

If you're seeing one or more of these, it’s time to consider a professional drainage evaluation.

Our Professional Drainage Services in DFW

Texscape offers a range of drainage solutions, all tailored to the unique needs of your yard and home:

1. French Drains

Perfect for diverting water away from low spots and foundations. We use gravel, perforated piping, and proper grading to keep your yard dry.

2. Channel Drains

Installed in driveways or patios, channel drains catch surface water before it can flow toward your home.

3. Sump Pump Systems

Ideal for areas where gravity-based drainage isn’t enough, especially basements or low-lying yards.

4. Grading & Sloping

Sometimes, the solution is as simple as reshaping the land. We correct slopes to ensure water flows away naturally from structures.

5. Downspout Extensions

Redirect roof runoff away from your home’s perimeter to avoid long-term damage.

Each system is designed with DFW’s climate and clay soil in mind—ensuring long-term performance even during heavy rain seasons.
