About Kalamazoo Drainage Pros

Kalamazoo Drainage Pros is a locally owned drainage contractor serving Kalamazoo and all of Kalamazoo County, Michigan. We install french drains, bury downspout lines, set catch basins and dry wells, correct grading, run exterior footing drains, and route sump discharge. Almost everything we fix comes back to one thing: water with nowhere to go.

Kalamazoo sits in a river valley on heavy clay, with the water table close to the surface across much of the county. Clay holds water, the ground is flat, and a winter thaw adds lake-effect snowmelt on top of the rain. Soggy yards and wet basements are the normal complaint here. We do not try to make clay drain. We give the water a built path out, in perforated pipe and washed #57 stone, wrapped in filter fabric and sloped to a lower outlet.

We are licensed and insured for work in Michigan. We write every job down before we start. We tell you when a wet basement is really a downspout dumping at the wall, and when a soggy yard just needs regrading instead of a buried drain. We tell you when the water needs a full footing drain and when it does not. You get the diagnosis before you get the price.

Call (269) 555-0177 for a straight answer on any drainage question, whether or not it turns into a job.
