Drainage Trench Digging

We dig drainage trenches around the house and in the yard with a mini excavator and operator in Kurzeme and Riga. We solve standing water, damp basements and waterlogged yards by diverting rainwater and groundwater.

Common problems

  • Water stands in the yard
  • Damp or wet basement
  • Water pooling near the foundations
  • Waterlogged, boggy lawn
  • Poorly drained rainwater

We use a simple, informative drainage layout - this is not a certified engineering design.

Frequently asked questions

When does a yard need drainage?
Drainage helps if water stands in the yard, the basement is damp, water pools near the foundations, or the lawn is waterlogged and drains rainwater poorly.
Do you provide a drainage design?
We provide practical, informative guidance and carry out the digging work. A certified engineering drainage design is prepared by the relevant specialist.
Do you backfill with gravel?
Yes, once the drainage pipe is laid we can backfill with gravel and grade the site.
