What is a French drain and do I need one for my yard?

A French drain is a gravel-filled trench with a perforated pipe that redirects surface and groundwater away from your home or lawn. It’s one of the most effective drainage solutions for yards with persistent water problems.

Signs you may need a French drain include water pooling after rain, a soggy yard that takes days to dry out, or water seeping toward your home’s foundation. Greenleaf Landscaping is a trusted French drain contractor serving Williamsburg and the greater Hampton Roads area. We assess your property’s grade, soil, and drainage patterns before recommending a solution.
