Solve Standing Water

Drainage Solutions & French Drains in Middle Tennessee

Soggy yard? Water in the crawl space? We find where the water goes wrong and fix it at the source — for good.

What we do

Standing water isn’t just annoying — it kills grass, breeds mosquitoes, undermines patios and threatens your foundation. ABM Landscaping LLC designs and installs drainage systems that move water off your property and protect your biggest investment: your home.

Because we’re based right here in Wilson County, we know exactly how Middle Tennessee’s clay soil behaves after a hard rain. We diagnose the real cause — not just the symptom — and build a solution that holds up.

Why drainage is urgent in Middle Tennessee’s clay soil

Clay doesn’t drain — it holds water. After our heavy seasonal storms, that water sits against foundations, fills low spots and runs across yards carrying soil with it. Left alone, poor drainage leads to expensive foundation, mold and erosion problems that cost far more than the fix.

A properly designed French drain or regrade gives that water a planned path away from your home. Drainage often pairs with grading to correct slope and with retaining walls on steeper lots. If you have standing water now, don’t wait — call (615) 602-6954.

Questions

Drainage Solutions FAQs

What does a French drain do?
A French drain is a gravel-filled trench with a perforated pipe that collects groundwater and carries it to a safe outlet — away from your foundation, patio or low spot. It’s one of the most effective fixes for chronic standing water.
How quickly can you fix my drainage problem?
We treat standing water as high-priority and aim to assess your property within a day or two. Call (615) 602-6954 and we’ll get you on the schedule fast.
Why do I have standing water all of a sudden?
Often it’s a change in grade, a clogged or missing drain, new construction nearby, or simply our clay soil reaching saturation. We’ll pinpoint the cause and quote the permanent fix.
