Wet and Soggy Lawn Solutions in Portland, Oregon

Does your lawn stay wet and muddy long after the rain stops? Between heavy rainfall and the clay-heavy soil found throughout the region, soggy lawns are practically inevitable without proper drainage. Drainage Masters specializes in solving wet and soggy lawn problems in Portland, Oregon, with custom systems that address the root cause of your water issues.

Our Local Lawn Drainage Services

We provide comprehensive drainage solutions, including:

French Drain Installation

French drains are ideal for collecting and directing surface water and groundwater away from landscape borders, walkways, lawn edges or your home’s foundation. Our carefully constructed systems feature a patent-pending steel sediment-trapping catch basin that prevents clogging. The rock brought to the surface also creates an attractive landscape feature. By intercepting water before it reaches your foundation, French drains protect against structural damage, basement and crawlspace flooding, and the costly repairs these issues create.

Retaining Walls

When slopes and elevation changes contribute to runoff problems, retaining walls for drainage provide both structural support and water flow control. These installations prevent the soil erosion that threatens your landscaping and foundation while creating level areas for planting and redirecting water away from vulnerable zones. Retaining walls also protect against the progressive erosion damage common in clay soil.

Layered Yard Systems

For properties with complex drainage challenges, we design multicomponent systems combining grading, French drains and catch basins to manage water at every level. This comprehensive approach addresses surface water, subsurface saturation and grading simultaneously, preserving the nutrients your plants need while preventing root rot and maintaining optimal moisture levels for thriving lawns.

Roof Drainage Solutions

Properly functioning downspouts and rain drains prevent roof water from overwhelming your yard. Our roof drainage repair services include downspout repairs, rain drain rehabbing and drywell installation to direct water away from your foundation, eliminating soggy conditions.

Hear What Real Customers Tell Us!

The Drainage Masters crew that did our work was professional and polite. They did a great job and it looks great! Work had to be rescheduled due to the snow and they hustled to take care of us as soon as they could before we got more snow. Highly recommend and will definitely be hiring them for future projects.

Drainage Masters just completed a fairly extensive job at my new property, and although we haven’t had any rain yet I’m confident the job has been done right. I hired them because they came out two years ago and saved me from a flooded basement on a different project, during a heavy downpour. Seth and his guys are professional, courteous, and have done a beautiful job. My property was left in better shape than they found it, and I highly recommend them to anyone with a drainage issue. Thank you Seth, and everyone at Drainage Masters. The place looks great!

Just used this company for some work with drainage issues in our front yard. They were super communicative and the work was done very timely and the crew was cleaner than I ever could have expected. I would highly recommend to anyone that needs their services. They used caution tape to protect the area for safety.

Katey H. Gladstone, OR

Raubdel was exceptional. He came out to inspect a water issue involving my crawl space and gutter downspouts. He gave me several options and he didn’t try to sell me something I didn’t need. He followed up and gave me great advice over the phone that has taken care of my problem. Very professional, courteous and knowledgeable.I would definitely recommend Drainage Masters and Roubdel.

Isaac F. Vancouver, WA

I have to tell you how much we appreciate the work Drainage Master, Spencer and the crew did on our job. This work turned out at least one hundred times better than we even expected. Both of us are absolutely amazed. The west side steps are spectacular. Planning and the work for the French drain and wall spectacular as well.
