French Drain and Yard Drainage in Texas Township, MI
Kalamazoo Drainage Pros works throughout Texas Township, Michigan, southwest of Kalamazoo. We are a licensed and insured drainage contractor doing french drains, yard drainage, grading, dry wells, and sump discharge for the newer homes across the township.
Texas Township holds some of the newest subdivisions in the county, built on larger lots carved out of farm clay. The bigger lots give us room to work, so a french drain that cannot reach daylight can end in a dry well packed in washed #57 stone and wrapped in geotextile filter fabric. The fabric keeps the fill clay out of the stone, so the well holds its storage instead of silting into solid ground over a couple of winters.
The pattern here is new houses on moving ground, with more space around them than a tight city lot. The graded clay settles the same way it does in Portage, so grades reverse and sumps run hard, but the acre-plus lots often have no lower ground to pipe to. That makes the outlet the puzzle: a dry well to store the water, or a long run to whatever fall the property has. We size the answer to the lot.
Our work in Texas Township covers french drains, catch basins and dry wells, grading, and sump discharge lines. Every job starts with a free written estimate.
