End standing water, soggy spots and erosion with engineered drainage.
Lago Vista sits on rocky lakeside slopes with thin soil that sheds water hard and fast. Standing water pools in yards, gullies cut into hillsides, and soggy spots undermine patios and driveways-especially after the heavy rains Travis County gets in spring and fall. Corral Bros designs and installs drainage systems that work with Lago Vista's terrain, not against it.
We start with an on-site assessment to understand how water actually moves across your lot, whether you're in Highland Lake Estates, Bar-K Ranches, or Point Venture. From there we size and place French drains, channel drains, dry creek beds, and surface systems that stop erosion and reclaim the ground you're paying for. No two hillside properties drain the same way.
As a locally owned, licensed crew, we schedule free no-obligation estimates within 48 hours and stick around to answer questions and manage the work start to finish. We've tackled everything from modest residential drainage on Lake Travis waterfront lots to larger commercial jobs across the corridor.
We're a local, family-built company that treats your Lago Vista property like our own — tidy crews, clear pricing, and drainage solutions that holds up to Travis County conditions. Available as a one-time project or part of an ongoing plan.
Standing water is fixed by correcting the grade and adding drainage that carries water away: French drains, channel drains, downspout extensions and dry creek beds. We assess how water moves across your property, then design a system suited to Central Texas clay and heavy storms.
A French drain is a gravel-filled trench with perforated pipe that collects and redirects subsurface and surface water away from problem areas and foundations. You likely need one if you have soggy spots, water against the house, or a slope that sheds water toward your home.
The rocky, thin-soil slopes around Lake Travis shed water fast and block infiltration. Surface water has nowhere to go and collects in low spots. Proper grading and drainage systems redirect that water so it doesn't sit. Corral Bros assesses your lot's slope and soil to design the right fix.
A French drain is a buried gravel-filled trench that catches water below the surface and moves it away. A channel drain is a surface system (usually metal or concrete) that catches water running across your yard or driveway. Lago Vista hillsides often need both-channel drains on slopes, French drains lower down.
Cost depends on lot size, slope, soil type, and which systems you need. We give free on-site estimates to nail down the scope. Call us at 737-404-9343 to schedule-usually within 48 hours. That conversation is how we figure out what your property actually needs.
Often yes. Dry creek beds slow erosion, look natural, and handle seasonal water flow well. They work especially well on Lago Vista's rocky slopes where they blend into the landscape. We'll assess your grade and soil during the free estimate to confirm it's the right move for your yard.
Yes. Waterfront lots face unique challenges-saturated soil near the water line, slope stability, and seasonal lake-level changes. We've designed drainage systems for Lake Travis properties that account for those conditions. Grading, French drains, and erosion control all matter at the water's edge.
