Water Management

Drainage systems,
dry ground, for good.

Standing water, soggy lawns, flooded beds — Northwest problems with an engineered fix. French drains, catch basins, and grading that move water where it belongs.

What We Do

How ZNS handles your drainage systems

Water always wins — unless you give it a better path. We start by finding where the water comes from and where it pools, then design the route: a French drain to intercept and carry it, catch basins where it collects, channel drains across hard surfaces, downspout tie-ins so roof water stops dumping at your foundation, and a legal, sensible discharge point.

Installation is honest trench work done right: proper fall on every pipe run, washed drain rock, filter fabric so the system doesn't silt up in three winters, and the surface restored — lawn, beds, or gravel — so in a month you won't be able to tell we were there. You'll just notice the puddles never came back.

How It Works

Our process, start to finish

01

Find the water

We trace where it comes from, where it sits, and where it can legally and safely go.

02

Design the path

Drain type, route, and discharge planned for your lot — not a one-size-fits-all trench.

03

Trench & install

Proper fall, washed rock, filter fabric, solid pipe where it counts — built not to clog.

04

Restore & prove

Surface put back the way it was, and a system you'll watch work the first heavy rain.
