  2. One crew responds We route the request to one vetted local drainage contractor, not a lead auction.
  3. Quote on site The crew checks the grade, soil, discharge route, and gives you exact numbers before work starts.

Drainage Repair questions, answered

Why did my French drain stop working?
The usual failures around here: a drain built with corrugated pipe and no filter fabric silts shut, shifting clay pulls pipe joints apart, tree roots thread through the perforations, or a section gets crushed under a driveway. A camera inspection finds the actual failure so you fix what's broken instead of guessing.
Is it cheaper to repair a drainage system or replace it?
Cleanouts and jetting usually land in the low hundreds. Section repairs commonly run $800 to $3,000. A full rebuild prices like a new install, so it only makes sense when the original system was undersized for the rain this area actually gets. An honest contractor tells you which one you need.
Drainage Repair details, costs, and local notes Helpful for research, kept lower so the page stays call-first.

A good share of failed drainage in Humble and Kingwood can be repaired without rebuilding the whole system. The usual suspects: a French drain that silted shut because it was built with corrugated pipe and no fabric, a discharge line crushed under a driveway, tree roots threaded through every perforation, or a catch basin that's quietly become a sediment trap.

Diagnose first, then fix

  • Camera inspection and line locating to find the actual failure instead of guessing
  • Jetting to clear silt and roots where the pipe itself is sound
  • Section replacement for crushed or separated runs. Shifting clay pulls pipe joints apart over time, the signature local failure mode
  • Full replacement when the original system was undersized for the rain this area actually gets
