Standing water in your yard after a rain? San Antonio's caliche-heavy soils and limestone shelves make drainage a real problem. Properties from Alamo Heights to Stone Oak deal with soggy spots and erosion that can wreck your foundation and landscaping.

Whether you're on a historic in-town lot or one of the new Shavano Park builds, we start with a site grading assessment to understand how water moves across your property. From French drains to channel drains, dry creek beds to erosion control, we choose the right solution for your soil and slope.

We're family-run, licensed and insured, and we'll come out for a free on-site estimate within 48 hours. Call us at (737) 404-9343 to get started.

FAQ

Drainage Solutions in San Antonio — FAQ

How do I fix standing water in my yard?

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.

What is a French drain and do I need one?

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.

Why does water pool in my San Antonio yard even when it doesn't rain much?

Caliche is nearly impermeable. It forms a hard layer under your soil that stops water from draining down. We assess where caliche sits on your property and design drainage to move water around or through it, keeping it from pooling in low spots.

What's the difference between a French drain and a channel drain?

French drains work underground, pulling water from soggy areas into a perforated pipe buried below the surface. Channel drains are visible trenches that catch and direct surface water. We use both depending on where the water problem is and how your yard slopes.

How much does a drainage system cost?

Cost depends on your property size, soil type, and how much drainage you need. A free on-site estimate from Corral Bros accounts for caliche depth, grade, and the specific spots causing trouble. Call (737) 404-9343 to schedule yours.

Can you stop erosion on my sloped lot?

Yes. We build dry creek beds, install erosion control fabric, and regrade slopes to direct water safely off your property. Stone Oak and Hill Country properties often need slope work. We'll show you what makes sense during the estimate.

How long does a drainage system last?

A well-built system lasts 15 to 20 years or more. Maintenance is minimal, mostly keeping drains clear of debris. San Antonio's soil and climate are hard on drainage, so proper installation and the right materials matter a lot.
