Frequently Asked Questions

How much does land grading cost in Katy/Sugar Land/Richmond? +

Costs typically range from $1–$3 per square foot depending on the size of the lot, soil conditions, and amount of fill/dirt needed. Smaller residential lots (¼–1 acre) often fall between $3,000–$15,000. We provide free on-site estimates.

What are signs I need better drainage on my property? +

Common indicators include standing water after rain, soggy lawn areas, foundation cracks, erosion around the house, or mosquito breeding spots. Houston's heavy clay soil makes poor drainage a frequent issue.

Are French drains effective in Houston's clay soil? +

Yes—when properly designed and installed. French drains work well here by redirecting water away from foundations and low spots. We use perforated pipe wrapped in geotextile fabric and surround it with gravel to prevent clogging in clay-heavy soils.

How long does a typical drainage or excavation project take? +

Most residential drainage installations (French drains, swales, catch basins) take 2–5 days. Full lot grading or site preparation for new construction can take 3–10 days depending on size and weather. We work with you to develop a comprehensive project plan, communicating each step along the way to minimize disruption and clean up daily.

Do you handle permits for excavation and drainage work? +

Yes. We pull all required permits for projects in Katy, Richmond, Sugar Land, and unincorporated Harris/Fort Bend counties. This ensures everything meets local codes and avoids fines.

What’s the difference between regrading and full site preparation? +

Regrading fixes uneven yards, low spots, or slope issues on existing properties. Site preparation involves clearing, grading, and compacting for new construction (homes, pools, additions). We do both.

Will excavation or grading damage my existing landscaping? +

We take care to protect mature trees, shrubs, and features you want to keep. Access paths are planned carefully, and we restore topsoil/sod in affected areas when possible.

Do you offer warranties on drainage work? +

Yes—we provide a 2-year workmanship warranty on all drainage installations, plus manufacturer warranties on materials. Proper maintenance (avoiding heavy equipment over drains) helps ensure long-term performance.

Can you fix flooding in my backyard or around my foundation? +

Absolutely. We diagnose the source (poor slope, high water table) and install solutions like French drains, surface swales, or regrading tailored to your property.

Why choose a local Katy/Richmond-area contractor over a big national company? +

As a locally owned team raised in West Houston, we understand our unique soil, weather, and flooding challenges better than out-of-town firms. You get faster response times, personalized service, and someone who treats your project like their own.
