Drainage solutions prevent water accumulation, protecting landscapes, foundations, and outdoor spaces from erosion, flooding, and structural damage over time.
Properly designed drainage systems direct excess water away using grading, French drains, or sump pumps, ensuring efficient runoff and soil stability.
Investing in professional drainage solutions enhances property longevity, prevents costly repairs, and maintains healthy lawns by eliminating standing water and soil saturation issues.
Why Drainage Matters
Good drainage keeps lawns healthy by preventing water buildup, which can lead to erosion, root rot, and pest problems. Without it, soil becomes oversaturated, weakening plants and damaging property foundations. Proper drainage ensures a stable, thriving landscape.
The Risks of Poor Drainage
Standing water can cause plant disease, attract pests, and weaken soil structure. Over time, it may lead to foundation cracks, basement flooding, or uneven terrain. Installing drainage solutions prevents costly damage and maintains property value.
Effective Drainage Solutions
French drains, grading, and sump pumps help control water flow and prevent pooling. These systems keep soil balanced, reduce flooding risks, and improve lawn health. Choosing the right solution ensures long-term landscape protection.
Signs You Need Better Drainage
If you notice puddles after rain, slow-draining soil, or wilting plants despite watering, your lawn may have drainage issues. Persistent damp spots can lead to mold, mosquito breeding, and grass deterioration. Addressing these signs early with proper drainage solutions prevents bigger problems down the road.

We had been considering an irrigation system and spoke with three different companies before choosing them. Their promo caught our attention, and we’re so glad we moved forward. Evelin came out, took measurements, and provided an estimate within 24 hours. By the following Monday, they were installing! Foreman Danny ensured a flawless installation, and we couldn't be happier.
Absolutely outstanding! Working with the Mean Green Team on our irrigation project was an incredible experience! We took advantage of a promo they were running, and we are so happy we did. If you're looking for great irrigation at a great price, don’t wait...call them today for a consultation! I worked with Denise, shared my needs and budget, and they delivered beyond expectations. The system is efficient, and I cant wait for spring time, our landscape is going to look great. Highly recommend!
Effective and efficient project management, peerless worksite crew leadership and crew performance. Although I know my project was just one of many on this crew's schedule, I was treated as if my project was the most important. Outstanding results and exceptional post project aftercare guidance. In my 72 years I have observed several landscaping crews in action: this crew is head and shoulders above them all. I most highly recommend Mean Green Lawn and Landscape to my neighbors and other homeowners looking to work with a well-run organization to address their landscaping needs.
Mean Green has completely transformed my jungle of a backyard to a peaceful sanctuary. I'm so grateful. Now I will be able to maintain it myself. They were very professional and fast in getting the work done, always with my wants and needs priority. Thank you Evelin and Denise. I so appreciate you both. And don't forget the hardworking crew.
Mean Green is my favorite Landscaper to work with, hands down. Everything in my communications and work with them has been world class.
Mean Green Lawn and Landscape did an amazing job on our sod installation! The team was professional, efficient, and the yard looks fantastic – fresh, green, and flawless. Highly recommend for anyone needing lawn work done right!
Mean Green provided top-notch Land Grading Services and installed a beautiful river rock path for us. They prepared the area with precision, and the new path blends perfectly to our workshop. The team was skilled, and delivered excellent results.
Mean Green Lawn and Landscape did a fantastic job solving a drainage issue at my home. They were able to complete the work in a single day and left my property in great shape. I would highly recommend working with Evelin, Denisse and their team if you have lawn, landscape or drainage needs.
We’ve had the pleasure of working with Mean Green on a few outdoor projects now, including most recently a complete rebuild of our back deck. The team has always been responsive, on time, and clean with an incredibly high attention to detail. On top of that, a couple months after the deck was installed, when a couple boards were popping up due to ground shift, the team was back out here reinforcing the joints to make sure that we were 100% happy with the outcome of the project.I can’t recommend working with Mean Green enough!
Mean Green has been mowing my lawn for over six months and they do a great job each and every time. Recently, we wanted to refresh the landscaping both in the four beds out front and some additional vegetation around the property. Evelyn came right out and we walked around the property talking about what we wanted done. She sent me a very reasonable bid in just a couple of days. We agreed on the work and within a few days, a team showed up and completed the work. We are very happy with the end result. It looks perfect. I would highly recommend this company. Thank you Mean Green!
I had an old French drain pulled out and a new one put in. After that was done, they did landscaping, including sod and river rocks. I also had them pour a small concrete pad for a shed in the back yard. The end result is exactly as I was hoping! Each crew that worked on the project was very kind, patient and extremely thoughtful about what they were doing. The French drain install was complicated due to many obstacles in the way like my buried pool equipment and the city utilities. Before they started, they talked through the best way to handle each task, then they executed quickly. I also appreciate how they cleaned up at the end of the day. I am so happy with their work and highly recommend them for any project, big or small!
I have owned a business for 10 years… my wife and I HAVE NOT HIRED this company however… I can’t speak enough to the professionalism of this company and the owners.My wife and I had them out to give a quote for a current situation we are in. They really helped us see and understand things that we simply would have missed as people who don’t know what we don’t know.I’m not sure if we will hire them for the specific projected we had them out for. (All thought I hope we can)However I would recommend them for the simple fact that they present themselves well and seek understanding for what the customer is truly wanting and hoping for. As a business owner I felt HEARD and understood as well as cared for as a home owner. 10/10 recommendThank you so much!
Truly fantastic! Their work was precise and careful. In three days my back yard was transformed from a source of frustration to my favorite place to be. On top of the great work, they were easy to deal with and went the extra mile. I would absolutely recommend them!

From the moment we contacted them, they have been friendly, communicative, and responsive throughout the entire process.
