Move the water, save the pavement.
Drainage solutions for pavement: catch basins, trench drains, French drains, pipe and swales that carry water away from lots, drives and buildings.
- Options: Catch basins, trench drains, French drains, swales
- Pipe: Sized for the storm flow
- Compliance: Local stormwater rules checked
What it is, and why it matters.
Standing water destroys pavement from below. We solve it with the right mix of regrading, catch basins, trench drains, French drains, pipe and swales that capture runoff and send it somewhere safe. We trace where the water comes from and goes, size pipes for storm flows and set inlets at the low points.
In Nashville and across Tennessee, heavy storms and clay soils make drainage a top issue for lots, driveways and slopes. We coordinate with local stormwater requirements, protect neighboring properties and tie into existing systems where allowed. Fixing the drainage when we pave or repair means the new surface does not fail for the same reason the old one did.

Drainage and Catch Basins: common questions
Why does water pond on my parking lot?
Usually the grade is wrong, an inlet is clogged or missing or the pavement has settled. We find the cause and fix the slope or add drainage.
Do I need a permit for drainage work?
Larger or off-site drainage may need approval from your city or county. We check your requirements and handle submittals where needed.
