Anyone recommend a good earthwork or yard drainage guy or company to fix the slope/drainage in our backyard? Some of the rains we've had this past year have been way to close to flooding our house. We are in Baton Rouge.

TIA

i Used Earthworks Pro for my subsurface drainage in my backyard. Sounds like i was in the same position you are. Made a world of difference. They were the highest of the 3 quotes i got, but i trusted Josh (the owner) and overall just felt confident in their ability more than the other guys i met with.

What kind of price was that? I’m thinking I need to do same to my yard, some sloping along with drainage for my gutters

My parents had a landscape guy install their drainage years ago and the guy had no idea what he was doing.

They have some serious drainage issues on their property… like sandbags around the A/C’s kinda problems.

I started watching this guy…
French Drain Man - YouTube
and have given my folks a list of stuff that they need to make sure is in the bid before they accept any contractor.

…I’ll be following this to see who’s recommended. :)

Bump... Just talked to Earthworks Pro and they have a wait list until January to even look at the job.
