Whoever you choose make sure they use a laser transit to determine fall

I used Earthworks Pro for my drainage. They used a laser, trencher, etc. Had 3 runs of 180 ft done. 12 catchbasins along my fence line and under my gutter downspouts. did a great job. a little pricier than the other 2 quotes but worth it

I got some drainage quotes in BR for PVC pipes and catch basins, and they were all around $15/linear foot.

to each his own. I'm DIY to the max, but these dudes had trenchers, shovels, lasers, and experience and it still took them like 4 days.
i know when to hold em and when to fold em, and this was one to fold em

Speaking as someone who did 4 runs of pvc for gutter drainage. Totaling about 300 ft. Dug it all out by shovel. Took about 2.5 12 hour days of solid labor. Total cost with pop up drains was just around $250. Would highly recommend paying someone or at least rent a trencher.
