Irrigation Installation and Repair

Texas properties have an inherit problem when it comes to rain and run-off water—poor commercial grading prevents proper drainage, which is often why you see standing water. While, for some, this may be considered simply an irritant, it can also be a health hazard. Mosquitoes and disease can grow in the stagnant water around your home. Mosquitoes are known to carry any number of sicknesses from person to person.

Palumbo’s combats standing water issues with various Drainage Improvement and Design techniques. We turn standing water and marshy properties in to healthy thriving green lawns that you can show unparalleled green: enhancing the beauty of building’s or municipal’s grounds.

French Drains

French drains are the most common remedy for the inherited drainage problem caused by poor contractor grading and landscaping. We come in and dig, prep, fill and level the playing field so water drains underground as it should, rather than getting stopped by the levels of clay soil and high water table.

This relatively simple process can be accomplished within a day for most yards and areas.

Surface Drains

Another common method for clearing the water is surface drains. Surface Drains collect water flow and direct it away from troubled areas. This method is mostly used around pools and where roof lines converge.

This relatively simple process can be accomplished within a day for most yards and areas.

ReGrading

We fix contractor grading. We improve the way the landscape ebbs and flows to ensure proper drainage happens, minimizing or eliminating standing water and marshy grass.

A fair number of landscaping flaws and problems stem from poor contractor grading and landscaping. While this is true, it’s not purposeful. Contractor’s main concern is a quality build. They leave the quality landscaping to the hired landscape contractor.

While regrading is a little messier, the effects are well worth the temporary destruction. Like remodeling a home, remodeling the landscaping is sometimes the best way to improve drainage issues. And the results when we are finished are awe-inspiring.

Combination

We find more often than not, that it takes a combination of all three method to solve a drainage problem.  We are never get stuck on one type of solution, we look at the whole issue and come up with a solution without creating another problem.
