I would give Drainage & Erosion top ratings. They did some work in my backyard, and they did a very clean, excellent job. They dug a ditch and installed drainage from the back of the house to the front. I would give this company the highest scores.

Drainage & Erosion Solutions did some work for us over the last year, and it was absolutely excellent. It was a very good experience. They created a French drain in my backyard, and they did an excellent job. After they were done, the crew laid sod on the places that were dug up. You could hardly tell that we had work done. I would definitely give them an A.

Drainage & Erosion was excellent. They addressed a very thorny engineering problem very well. They constructed a wall and reconfigured a hill for us. We’re very happy with them.

They just came out and resolved a swamp-like situation in the backyard....We had Drainage & Erosion Solutions come out and make a drainage system under our yard to carry the water. They did a great job. They resolved the issue. They were pleasant, and they were prompt. We were just totally happy.

I had some problems with moisture and drainage, so I called Drainage & Erosion Solutions. They readjusted downspouts and buried drain pipes to redirect the flow of water. They were very good to work with—very professional and smart guys.

They excavated and put in a liner to waterproof our basement. Honestly, I think that out of all the work we've had done on our house, they were the best. They did the best job of cleaning up of anyone. They were in and out and were very polite. When they were done, it was almost like they hadn't been there. It was incredible.

I had some work done with Drainage & Erosion Solutions. They solved the problem of seepage into my basement office. They were outstanding.

They did a bunch of things. They put a diversion trench on the hill in my front yard to divert water into the woods. They buried the downspouts on all of my gutters and extended those out into the yard. They also created a rock line, almost like a creek bed, on the side of my yard to basically funnel the water down the hill....I thought everything was fantastic.

They're great. The last time they came, it was to repair damage to the drainage system that was done by a truck that went through our yard or something. It wasn't their work that they were repairing. They identified the problem and solved the problem.

I used Drainage & Erosion Solutions. They were good. We had some water issues. They dug out under the ground and put a push-out for the water to spread in the yard. We're actually going to use them again, because we had some other issues. The water issues have been mitigated by what they did on that side of the house. Everything is doing what it should be doing. There were no communication problems along the way. I would recommend them to others. They did a good job. They've done some other work in our neighborhood, too. I forget the owner's name, but he did a good job.
