Stop Drainage Problems Before They Spread
Standing water, soggy lawns and flooding after rain can cause long-term problems. Poor drainage damages gardens, weakens foundations and can even lead to damp inside your home.
With help from Backhouse Construction & Landscaping, you can prevent these issues early and keep your property safe, stable and dry all year.
Reliable Solutions Built to Last
Without proper drainage, water can pool and soil can lose nutrients over time. Our systems are designed to work with your land, not against it.
We use durable materials and proven methods that protect your home, prevent flooding and keep your garden in top condition all year.

Frequently Asked Questions
How do I know if I need a drainage system?
Pooling water, compacted soil or dying plants are clear signs. Damp patches indoors can also mean water is not draining properly underground.
What’s the difference between a French drain and a soakaway?
A French drain channels water away using gravel and pipework while a soakaway disperses it underground into the soil. Both prevent surface flooding and water build-up.
Can proper drainage improve my garden?
Yes. Good drainage helps roots breathe, keeps soil healthy and supports stronger growth across your plants and lawn.

Backhouse Construction & Landscaping used boards to protect the lawn and swept the path after. Smart, respectful crew.

Backhouse Construction & Landscaping traced our puddles to a blocked run and planned a French drain. Clear advice, fair price and tidy work.
First heavy rain since and the lawn stayed firm. Relief at last.

Dan listened first, then talked through choices and costs. No pressure.
We picked the mid option and he scheduled quickly. The path is dry for the school run for once.

Backhouse Construction & Landscaping handled our side passage that always puddled at the back door. They cut a neat slot drain, matched the paving cuts and linked it to a small soakaway.
It looks original, not bolted on. Shoes and school bags aren’t soaked anymore. Communication was steady throughout and they tidied like they’d never been.

We’re a family of five with a football mad spaniel. The lawn used to turn to soup every Saturday.
Dan fitted a French drain through the worst strip and connected a discreet soakaway under the goal. Backhouse Construction & Landscaping relaid turf tight and left the square looking like a bowling green. Two relentless showers later and it still felt firm. The dog came in clean. That alone sold us.

Backhouse Construction & Landscaping produced a simple drawing for our builder showing depths, gravel size and connections. That avoided any crossed wires.
On site they were polite, careful with the patio doors and swept the road when finished. Value felt fair for the skill involved and the result speaks for itself.

Dan carried out a calm assessment with a laser, string line and simple water test. He recommended a French drain behind the raised bed and a small gully by the step.
He cleaned as he went, chatted to our curious toddler and kept the gate latched for the cat. The result is quiet and effective. No fanfare needed, just good work that holds up in rain.

Backhouse Construction & Landscaping solved a damp line in our hallway by tackling the patio outside. They lifted one course, set a slim channel and tied it to a new soakaway in the lawn.
The finish looks original, not patched. Weeks later the skirting is dry and paint is behaving.

Backhouse Construction & Landscaping sorted flooding on our drive without tearing everything up. They lifted a strip, set a channel grate, re laid the blocks and linked into an existing outlet.
Looks original, works perfectly and the garage is finally dry after storms.

Backhouse Construction & Landscaping were recommended by two neighbours after last winter’s flooding. They arrived on time, assessed with a laser and moisture meter, then produced a clear plan with costs and timings.
Installation was careful and tidy, and they photographed every stage. First proper downpour last night and the patio stayed dry end to end.

We worried about sending water to the neighbour by accident. Dan measured both gardens, set the outlet sensibly and showed us on a sketch.
Backhouse Construction & Landscaping worked with tarps and boards so nothing got churned up. They even rescued a robin’s nest by shifting a ladder. It rained hard the next day and not a puddle lingered. Honest guidance, careful hands and a result that just works.

Dan turned up with dye, hose and patience. He traced water along the patio edge, then recommended a short run of perforated pipe with gravel that disappears under turf.
Backhouse Construction & Landscaping worked neatly, lifted slabs cleanly and relaid them so the pattern lines up. After two heavy showers there’s no standing water, no slick patches by the door. Clear advice, tidy craft and a bill that matched the quote exactly. Feels like adulting done right.

Rental property flooded at the back door whenever it tipped it down. The team found crushed pipe under old roots and replaced it with proper falls.
Tenants reported dry shoes for the first time in years. Worth every penny for the stress saved.

Dan turned up when he said he would, tested the fall with a level and explained everything in plain English. The soakaway went in neatly and the patio dries fast now.

Our back door always trapped a puddle right where the pram wheels land. Dan lowered the threshold gully, added a slim drain and tied it neatly to the soakaway.
Backhouse Construction & Landscaping swept the path, closed the gate for the cat and left a friendly follow up email. We walked out after last night’s rain and nothing squished. Small fix, massive difference for daily life.
