Controlling Water Before It Damages Your Property

Ironground Construction LLC installs drainage and grading solutions for residential and commercial sites in Azle, Texas.

You see water pooling along your foundation, washing out gravel driveways, or collecting on concrete slabs after every heavy rain. In Azle, poor drainage leads to settling, erosion, and concrete failure that gets worse each season until the underlying problem is corrected. Ironground Construction LLC evaluates how water moves across your property, identifies where it collects or causes damage, and installs grading and drainage solutions that redirect flow away from structures and high-use areas.

We address water flow issues for homes and businesses across Azle, working with each property's layout, slope, and existing surfaces. Solutions include regrading to change surface elevation, installing French drains or channel drains to capture runoff, and adding swales or berms to direct water toward safe discharge points. Each project is customized based on how water currently behaves on your site and what areas need protection.

Methods We Use to Move Water Safely

Your drainage solution begins with a site assessment to identify low spots, flow paths, and where water is causing damage or pooling. In Azle, we use a combination of regrading, subsurface drains, and surface channels to move water away from foundations, driveways, and concrete slabs. Grading changes the slope of the ground, while drains capture water and carry it underground or through open channels to a safe discharge area.

After the work is complete, you will see water moving off your property instead of sitting in place or eroding soil around structures. Effective drainage improves longevity of concrete installations and overall site stability. Water that is not controlled continues to undermine bases, wash out fill, and accelerate cracking in paved surfaces.

We install perforated drain pipe, catch basins, and gravel-filled trenches depending on the volume of water and site conditions. Grading work may involve adding or removing soil, reshaping berms, or adjusting slopes around existing hardscaping. We do not perform irrigation work or install sump pumps, but we coordinate with other contractors if your project involves those systems.

Understanding What Drainage Work Involves

Homeowners and property managers in Azle often ask how drainage solutions work, what happens to the water, and how long the systems last. These answers address the details that affect planning and performance.

What is a French drain and when is it needed?
A French drain is a gravel-filled trench with perforated pipe that collects and redirects subsurface water. You need one when water pools near foundations, under slabs, or in low areas where surface grading alone will not solve the problem.
How do you determine where to direct the water?
We follow the natural slope of your property and identify discharge points such as street drains, swales, or open areas where water can spread without causing erosion. In Azle, we design systems that comply with local drainage codes.
Why does grading matter for drainage?
Grading creates the slope that moves water away from structures and prevents pooling. Even small changes in elevation can redirect flow and protect concrete, foundations, and landscaping from water damage.
How long do drainage systems last?
Properly installed systems last decades if maintained, but they can clog with sediment or root intrusion over time. We use gravel and filter fabric to reduce clogging and design systems that are easy to inspect and clean.
What happens if drainage is not fixed?
Water continues to erode soil, undermine bases, and cause settling or cracking in concrete and foundations. Over time, the damage becomes more expensive to repair and may require replacing entire slabs or structures.
