We do the work
Agreed price, tidy site, and workmanship backed in writing. If something is not right afterwards, we come back.
Why trust us
What we commit to, in writing.
We are not going to show you testimonials we cannot stand behind. These are commitments you can hold us to instead — and check before you book.
-
Licensed and insured local crews, and we will prove it
Every drainage contractor we send holds the license their work requires and carries liability insurance. Ask for the certificate before anybody comes out — with us, or with anyone else you are considering.
-
A written estimate before anything starts
You get the scope and the price in writing, free and with no obligation. If you decide against it, that is the end of it — there is no follow-up campaign.
-
The price you agreed is the price you pay
Nothing gets added without your say-so. Where a job could genuinely uncover something hidden, the rate for that is named in the estimate rather than discovered afterwards.
-
Workmanship backed in writing
If something is not right after we finish, we come back and put it right. Manufacturer warranties on materials are passed through to you in your name.

The form is the fastest way to reach us
The form is the fastest way to reach us. It comes straight through to us and we respond immediately. It goes to the people who schedule the work rather than into a queue, which is why we do not publish a number we cannot always answer.
-
We will tell you when you do not need us
Sometimes the honest answer is that it can wait, or that it is a different trade, or that a repair beats a replacement. A drainage contractor who never says that is selling, not advising.
Middle Tennessee
Why drainage and excavation here is not like drainage and excavation anywhere else.
Middle Tennessee clay drains slowly and holds water at the surface, which is why so many Nashville gardens have a soggy patch that persists for days after everyone else has dried out.
Limestone shelf is common here and sits close to the surface in a lot of neighbourhoods. It sets the practical depth for any drain and is the most frequent surprise on an excavation quote.
Our heavy summer storms deliver a great deal of water in a short time, so systems sized for average rainfall back up exactly when they matter most.

FAQ
Drainage & Excavation in Nashville — questions
How much does drainage and excavation cost in Nashville?
It depends on the scope, and any drainage contractor who quotes a firm price without seeing the job is guessing. We give you a free written estimate up front, with the price agreed before any work starts — so there is no moving number at the end.
How fast can you get someone out?
Most drainage and excavation estimates are scheduled within a couple of business days, and the work itself is booked around your schedule. Busy seasons run longer, and we will tell you honestly rather than promise a date we cannot hold.
What areas do you cover?
Nashville and all of Middle Tennessee — 65 towns across 12 counties, including Franklin, Brentwood, Murfreesboro, Hendersonville, Mt. Juliet and Smyrna. If you are roughly an hour from Nashville, we cover you.
Are you licensed and insured?
Yes. Every drainage contractor we send is licensed for the work they are doing and carries liability insurance. Ask and we will send you the certificate before anyone comes out — you should ask that of anyone who works on your home.
Do you charge for an estimate?
No. Estimates are free and carry no obligation. You get a written scope and price, and if you decide not to go ahead, that is the end of it.
What if something goes wrong after the work is done?
You send the form and we come back. Workmanship is backed in writing, and manufacturer warranties on materials are passed through to you. Getting it right is cheaper for us than arguing about it.
