French Drain in Austin.
Persistent wet areas need a site-specific response. A French drain may be part of that response, but the first step is understanding where water comes from, how it moves, and where it can appropriately discharge.
Discuss your property ↗Do not solve a wet spot by damaging a tree.
A narrow drainage trench can still cross a substantial root area. Austin’s tree-review guidance includes work affecting regulated trees, making the trench route an early design question rather than a decision left to excavation day.
Bring rain photographs and a sketch of downspouts, wet areas, and the proposed outlet. We first distinguish standing surface water from persistent subsurface moisture; a French drain is not automatically the right solution for either. Where the shortest route crosses a retained tree, discuss alternative routing and required review before pricing the trench.
Local reference: Austin residential tree review. Confirm requirements for your address and scope with the responsible authority.
