French Drain vs Yard Grading in Orlando
Compare French drains and yard grading before requesting a drainage estimate for standing water, soggy grass, runoff, downspouts, and low areas.
A French drain may help collect and redirect subsurface or surface water when there is a clear place for water to discharge.
Grading may be needed when the yard shape sends water toward the house, patio, low spots, or neighboring areas.
Good drainage requests include photos after rain, downspout locations, low spots, slope direction, and any planned sod, paver, or retaining wall work.
