Drainage Solutions in Green Bay

Residential & Commercial Yard Drainage for Green Bay Properties

Wisconsin doesn’t go easy on yards. Heavy rain, rapid snowmelt, and freeze-thaw cycles push water into places it shouldn’t be, and without proper drainage, that water has nowhere to go. At Conserva Irrigation of Green Bay, we provide drainage installation for home and business owners across Green Bay and the surrounding Fox Valley area. Whether you’re dealing with standing water after every storm or erosion that’s slowly damaging your landscape, we can help.

Before recommending anything, a trained team member visits the property to assess its slope, soil conditions, and water flow patterns. The right drainage solution depends entirely on how your specific yard holds and moves water. Excess water accumulation isn’t just an eyesore. Left unaddressed, it can damage your foundation, kill vegetation, and create conditions for pests and bacteria.

Drainage Systems We Install in Green Bay

We offer several drainage system types, from straightforward installations to more elaborate landscape drainage designs. Every project is built to solve the drainage problem and add to the yard’s appearance, not detract from it.

French Drains
A trench filled with stones covers a perforated pipe that collects and redirects subsurface water away from the property. French drain installation works well for yards with persistent soggy areas or water that migrates toward the home’s foundation.

Dry Creek Beds
A surface drain lined with stones and edged with plants, dry creek beds move large volumes of water while reducing erosion and soil movement. They serve a functional role while becoming a natural-looking feature in the landscape.

Channel Drains
Long grates set flush with hard surfaces collect water on driveways, patios, and similar areas and route it through underground trenching. Channel drains keep surface water from pooling where foot traffic, vehicles, or structures create drainage challenges.

Downspout Drains
Connected directly to the gutter system, downspout drains move roof runoff away from the home without requiring a full underground installation. They’re a practical first step when the primary problem is concentrated discharge from gutters.

Catch Basins
A catch basin, sometimes called a yard drain, collects surface water rapidly at a single point and channels it underground. Catch basin installation is well-suited for low-lying areas where water pools quickly after heavy rain and surface grading alone can’t solve the problem.
