The first step of any installation is proper planning. When it comes to installing a drain system, you must work out the details first. French drains, for example, rely on trenches and are usually installed around a building’s foundation. Because you don’t want to damage the concrete slab unintentionally, you need an experienced service to handle your project.
Once we know how your new drains will operate, we can start the . Whether a standard yard drain is right for you or you need an advanced drainage system, we ensure the best installation each time! We guarantee better results when you hire us!
Installing a new lawn drain is one of the trickier landscaping solutions that we offer. Whichever type of system is best for your grass, we promise better installations each time. Your new system depends on underground piping and new trenching. This allows water somewhere to go, both above and below the ground. Whether you are dealing with pounding rain or low points in your yard, your new system will promote better grass growth and healthier plants.
Though many yard drains are low-maintenance once installed, issues can still arise. If your existing yard drain isn’t working properly, whether it's clogged, cracked, or overwhelmed during heavy rains, professional yard drain repair can restore its performance and protect your property.
At Oliviers, we diagnose and fix common drainage issues such as collapsed pipes, root intrusion, sediment buildup, and damaged catch basins. Our drainage and irrigation repair services are designed to quickly resolve problems and extend the life of your system so your yard stays dry and healthy.
Every yard is different, which is why we offer a range of proven yard drainage system options to meet your specific needs. Whether you’re facing excess surface water or groundwater issues, our team will assess your landscape and install the right solution to keep your yard dry and ensure proper drainage.
For surface water management on driveways, patios, walkways, or pool decks, trench drains offer an effective solution. These systems feature a narrow trench, or channel, and a metal or plastic grate that sits flush with the ground. As water flows over the surface, it enters the channel and is carried away through an underground drainage pipe that directs water away from your property.
Best uses for trench drains:
French drains are ideal for managing subsurface water and preventing soggy areas in your lawn or near your foundation. This system uses a perforated pipe wrapped in a filter fabric, set within a gravel-filled trench, to collect and redirect water away from trouble spots. It’s a discreet yet powerful way to keep your yard dry and your home protected from water intrusion. These drains are popular in Louisiana for both their ability to prevent water accumulation and their aesthetically pleasing construction.
Best uses for french drains:
Often simply referred to as "yard drains," catch basins collect water through a grated opening and trap debris before channeling water through a connected pipe system. Strategically placed in low points of your yard, catch basins help prevent standing water, soil erosion, and flooding by efficiently managing heavy rain runoff.
Best uses for catch basins:
Dry wells offer an eco-friendly drainage solution that allows water to naturally percolate into the surrounding soil. Dry wells feature chambers that are installed underground, filled with stone or gravel, and they collect water from downspouts, sump pumps, or surface drains and slowly disperse it without causing runoff or flooding around your home's foundation.
Best uses for dry wells:
Swales are shallow, gently sloping channels or depressions designed to manage water flow on your property effectively. Though they do not feature a physical drain or any materials, swales are a natural and effective drainage solution. These landscape features are constructed by excavating a trench or depression, often following the natural contour of the land, and lining it with native plants, rocks, or other suitable materials.
Swales are an environmentally friendly and aesthetically pleasing method of preventing damage to your property due to excess water accumulation, but you can only achieve one with the help of a landscaping and yard drainage specialist like us!
At Oliviers, we believe every Lafayette homeowner deserves a dry, functional, and beautiful property. Whether you're building a new home or improving an existing landscape, our team will deliver a better drainage solution that works as hard as you do.
