Property Drainage

Wet yard? Wet basement? Twin Cities Excavating can design and install land drainage systems to give you a dry, usable yard that will prevent surface water from flowing into and flooding your basement.

 

Twin Cities Excavating has years of experience creating, correcting and maintaining drainage on properties in Minnesota. As a drainage service provider in Minnesota, we have many creative and visually appealing ways to correct any drainage issues.

 

Geology can really vary. We have handled everything ranging from beach sand, clay, rocky plains and usually a combination of everything in between. Clay soils usually prevent water from soaking into the ground as fast as we would like, creating ponds or puddles at the surface. Ambient surface water on clay soils can be problematic if drainage is not properly directed away from your home's foundation.

 

Sandy soils on the other hand are usually easier to work with; However, it can transmit water movement underground that can create problems after heavy rains or a wet season.

 

Our great company can't change the geology in your area, but we can work with any given soil types to create solutions such as barriers or contours and proper slopes to solve any drainage concerns that you have experienced. Underground trenching/piping may be part of the solution.
