Yard Drainage Solutions for Standing Water and Soggy Lawns

If your lawn stays soggy for days after rain, water pools in low spots, or runoff from your roof floods your beds and walkways, you need a drainage plan—not just a single fix. Back Tees Irrigation & Landscape evaluates how water moves across your property and designs a comprehensive drainage solution that addresses the root cause and keeps your yard dry and usable.

Surface Drains and Channel Drains

For water that collects on the surface in hardscape areas, patios, or driveways, surface drains and channel drains capture water at the point of collection and move it through solid pipe to a discharge point.

Downspout and Gutter Runoff Management

Roof runoff from gutters and downspouts is one of the most common causes of yard flooding near foundations.

Grading and Swale Corrections

Sometimes the solution is not a pipe at all but a correction to how your yard is shaped.

Frequently Asked Questions

Answers to the questions we hear most from Lowcountry homeowners.

A French drain collects subsurface water through a gravel-filled trench with a perforated pipe. A surface drain captures water at ground level through a grate or channel and moves it through solid pipe. Many properties benefit from both.
