French drain installation in Chapel Hill, Tennessee

Drainage in Chapel Hill

Farmland in every direction, and field runoff crossing a residential lot is a common starting point. Interception at the property line is usually a better answer than collection at the house.

Two things decide how water behaves on a property in this part of Tennessee. The first is the ground itself, clay subsoil sitting over limestone, which drains slowly and pushes water sideways rather than down. The second is where the property sits in relation to everything uphill of it, because a great deal of what shows up in a yard here did not fall on it. That is why an assessment worth having starts at the top of the slope and works down, rather than starting at the puddle.
