Downspout Drainage & Underground Water Routing
Downspout Drainage & Underground Water Routing
Protect Your Foundation. Preserve Your Landscape.
Heavy rain is a part of life in the Inland Northwest. While we may be used to it, unmanaged runoff can silently wreak havoc on your property—from structural issues to soggy, unusable landscapes.
At Greenscape Landscaping, we specialize in underground drainage solutions that safeguard both your home and your yard from water damage.
What We Do
We install subsurface drainage systems tailored to your property’s unique challenges, including:
- Underground Downspout Drainage Systems:
Connect your home’s downspouts to underground pipes that discreetly redirect rainwater away from your foundation to a designated drainage area, keeping your home dry and stable. - French Drains:
Ideal for low-lying or consistently wet areas, French drains collect and channel excess groundwater, preventing soil saturation and erosion. - Dry Wells:
For properties without a natural drainage outlet, dry wells offer an effective solution—allowing water to percolate safely into the ground without pooling on the surface.

How It Works
Assessment
We start by evaluating your current downspout locations, water flow patterns, soil drainage, and any problem areas where water tends to pool or linger.
Planning
Based on the layout and grade of your yard, we design a custom drainage solution. Depending on your property’s needs, this may include components like underground piping, gravel wells, or subsurface drainage systems.
Installation
Our team trenches and installs durable underground piping connected to your existing downspouts, directing water to a safe discharge point or absorption area designed for long-term performance.
Cleanup and Finish
Once everything is in place and buried, we backfill, tamp the soil, and restore the area—leaving your yard clean and ready to enjoy.
Why Proper Drainage Matters
Water is one of the most destructive forces around your home, and often one of the most overlooked. Many homeowners don’t realize the damage poor drainage can cause until it’s too late. But with the right system in place, it’s entirely preventable.
Here’s what’s at stake if rainwater isn’t routed properly:
1. Foundation Damage
Water pooling around your home can seep into the ground and put pressure on your foundation walls. Over time, this can lead to cracking, shifting, or even basement flooding. A properly installed underground drainage system moves water safely away—helping protect the structural integrity of your home.
2. Basement Leaks & Moisture
Constant exposure to moisture can result in musty smells, mold growth, and water intrusion in basements or crawl spaces. Even small leaks can lead to costly repairs and health concerns. Drainage pipes that carry water well away from the foundation prevent this constant saturation.
3. Erosion and Landscape Damage
Without controlled runoff, rainwater can erode garden beds, wash away mulch, displace soil, and leave unsightly ruts across your property. Our drainage systems preserve your landscaping investments and keep your yard looking its best.
4. Ice Hazards in Winter
In cold seasons, excess runoff can freeze into dangerous sheets of ice on sidewalks, driveways, and walkways—creating slip hazards for you and your guests. Underground drainage eliminates this risk by directing water far from traffic zones.
