  • French drains, also known as yard drains, have a perforated pipe that redirects surface and groundwater away from a specific area, providing an effective home drainage solution.

  • Repairing downspout extensions can allow water to move further away from your home. This way, the water won't accumulate in the soil around your foundation.

  • The sump pump pipes that lead outside your property are supposed to guide water away from your home. Our trained specialists can repair or replace damaged sump pump pipes.

Professional Drainage Repair for Homeowners

Too much moisture can saturate the soil or create an accumulation of stagnant water. Stagnant water can take weeks, even months, to evaporate. This standing water can lead to problems, including causing significant damage to your home and its foundation. Signs of a malfunctioning drainage system include broken or collapsed pipes, damaged downspouts, unlevel or improper grading, and clogged drains.

Building residential homes on flat, even terrain is ideal. But houses on level land are also vulnerable during periods of heavy precipitation when water accumulates on the ground. Maintaining the integrity of the system is crucial, as problems can arise when water has nowhere to go.

As an industry leader, The Grounds Guys are committed to using our 20-plus years of landscape knowledge and experience to help homeowners and businesses bring the vision for their property to life. Our solutions prevent water damage, improve plant health, reduce soil erosion, enhance your property value, and prevent flooding. Contact us for your residential drainage repair today!

    This is the second time I’ve had work Done on my backyard by The Grounds Guys in Barrie. They do an absolute amazing job. I cannot compliment their work enough. I would highly recommend them to do any job big or small. I am so happy at the fantastic patio and walkway they installed for me. Their prices are very reasonable.

    The team from Grounds Guys did an amazing job. They were courteous and cleaned up everything after they finished. They even came back the nex morning to seed around the posts and any area that the lawn got damaged. I will definitely recommend and use them for any future projects.

  • White speech bubble with a star in the middle against a green background.

    Great service from The Grounds Guys Barrie. The crew was at our home for four days cleaning beds, edging, moving perennials, reshaping our gardens and finally laying a ton of mulch. Jaclyn and Hailey did most of the work the first couple of days with great care and attention to detail, they worked so diligently to get everything completed to our liking. Very pleasant and knowledgeable, I loved their energy!! The rest of the crew came in the last couple of days for the remainder of cleaning and mulching, I can’t say enough about how pleasant and hard working everyone was. Thank you, you have been the best gardeners we have hired and I am very happy with the end results.
