Projects we cover

The planned outdoor projects we connect Louisville homeowners with:

  • Ponds & water features. New ponds, enlarging or cleaning out an old one, and backyard water features.
  • French drains & yard drainage. French drains, downspout lines, catch basins, and soggy spots that never dry out.
  • Grading & leveling. Leveling a yard, fixing low spots, and sloping ground so water runs away from the house.
  • Site prep. Clearing and digging for additions, garages, pools, patios, and driveways.
  • Wet basement & water pooling. Water pooling by your foundation or seeping into the basement. Exterior drainage fixes only, not interior waterproofing.
  • Demolition & removal. Inground pool removal, shed and detached garage demolition, deck removal, and concrete driveway and patio tear-out.

Good to know for excavation and demolition projects in Louisville

  • Kentucky 811 has to be notified before any digging so buried utility lines get marked. Your pro should handle that request.
  • Water pooling against a foundation usually comes down to grading, downspouts, or a drain. Describe where the water sits and when, and the pro can tell you which.
  • Much of the Louisville area sits on heavy clay soil, which affects drainage, grading, and how a pond holds water.
  • Bigger jobs, like site prep for an addition, may need a permit from Louisville Metro.
  • Taking down a shed or detached garage, or removing a pool? Ask the pro about permits, utility shutoffs, and hauling the debris away before work starts.
