French Drain Installation
French drain installation designed around San Bernardino slopes, established properties and concentrated seasonal runoff.
We design French drains and drainage pipe routes around each property's grade—from foothill lots in Arrowhead and Verdemont to flatter sites near Downtown San Bernardino, Del Rosa and Muscoy.
From new French drain installation to catch basins and system inspections, each service starts with the source of the water, the available fall and a realistic outlet.
French drain installation designed around San Bernardino slopes, established properties and concentrated seasonal runoff.
Diagnose and repair clogged, crushed or poorly draining French drains across San Bernardino.
Perimeter drainage designed around foundation exposure, lot grade and safe discharge routing.
Sump pump systems for properties where gravity drainage alone cannot move collected water to a safe outlet.
Catch basin installation to collect surface runoff and move it through properly graded solid drainage pipe.
A practical inspection of French drains, pipe routes, grading, inlets and outlets to identify why water is collecting.
San Bernardino's long hot summers can harden exposed soil, while seasonal storms and irrigation can reveal low spots around foundations, patios and side yards. The right solution may be a French drain, solid drainage pipe, a catch basin, grading—or a combination.
We evaluate where water begins, how it crosses the property, and where it can discharge responsibly before recommending a trench or pipe layout.

Identify where water enters, where it settles, and whether surface runoff or subsurface water is driving the problem.
Mark the collection area, pipe route and outlet while accounting for buildings, hardscape, landscaping and utilities.
Confirm practical access, protected work zones and required utility locating before excavation.
Install the specified fabric, aggregate and drainage pipe with consistent fall, then verify flow before restoration.
Review inlets, cleanouts and outlets so the system remains inspectable after the work is complete.

Drainage conditions change from the foothills to the valley floor. We build location pages around those differences rather than swapping city names into identical copy.
Standing water, muddy strips, erosion and moisture near the foundation can reveal drainage failures after winter storms.

Read guide →French drain pricing depends on access, depth, outlet distance, restoration and site conditions—not just trench length.
Read guide →Cost depends on trench length and depth, access, aggregate volume, outlet distance, utilities, roots and any hardscape restoration. A short accessible yard run costs far less than deep foundation or hillside drainage.
It can when water can be intercepted and carried to a suitable outlet. Downspout discharge, irrigation leaks and negative grading should be checked first.
Yes. Common issues include sediment, roots, crushed pipe, separated fittings, poor slope and blocked outlets.
Requirements depend on the work location, excavation, discharge route and whether public property or infrastructure is involved. Applicable city or county requirements should be verified for the specific project.
