Yard Drainage Solutions
Comprehensive yard drainage systems that eliminate pooling water, soggy turf, and surface runoff problems.
Yard drainage problems in Chester County and Delaware County stem from a combination of clay-heavy soils that resist infiltration, sloped terrain that concentrates surface runoff, and high seasonal rainfall. JHL Drainage Solutions diagnoses the specific cause of your yard water problem before recommending any system.
Solutions vary by site. We assess surface grading, subsurface water movement, downspout discharge, and neighbor runoff patterns. A single yard may need a French drain, catch basin, regrading, downspout tie-ins, and a swale working together. We design the combination that solves your specific problem.
JHL Drainage Solutions has resolved wet yard problems in West Chester, Newtown Square, and throughout Chester County and Delaware County — including cases that other contractors failed to fix. We provide a free site assessment and written estimate.

Yes. Many of our West Chester and Newtown Square clients came to us after another contractor’s system failed. Site-specific diagnosis is what separates a permanent fix from a recurring problem.
