Tommy and John at AllGreen Landscape did an incredible job of designing a new driveway and entrance to our house, as well is helping us find a great pool contractor and doing all the landscaping around it and a new patio. I especially appreciate the fact that their crew has been with them for more than a decade, and they are all great guys. The whole team has worked with us closely to keep it all maintained and looking beautiful.

Expert French Drain System Installation and Repair in Alexandria, VA
Stop hydrostatic pressure from threatening your home's foundation. Saturated soil and low-lying yard depressions create persistent pooling and water intrusion problems — and without a proper drainage solution, the damage compounds over time. AllGreen Solutions designs and installs professionally engineered French drain systems that collect subsurface water and safely channel it away from your property, keeping your basement dry and your landscape firm year-round.
Our French drain installations begin with a thorough site assessment to identify the source of water accumulation, soil composition, and the most effective outlet path. We then excavate a trench along the problem area, line it with filter fabric, and install perforated pipe surrounded by clean aggregate — creating a reliable subsurface channel that intercepts groundwater before it reaches your foundation or floods your yard.
French drain repairs are equally important. Existing systems can fail over time due to sediment clogging, root intrusion, or pipe collapse. AllGreen Solutions diagnoses the failure point and restores full drainage function, whether that means flushing the line, replacing a section of pipe, or regrading the outlet.
We serve residential and commercial properties across Northern Virginia and Maryland, including Alexandria, Arlington, Fairfax, Bethesda, Rockville, and surrounding communities. Call AllGreen Solutions to schedule a French drain consultation and protect your property from water damage today.

FAQ
French Drain System Installation and Repair FAQ
Common questions about french drain system installation and repair in Alexandria, VA.
You likely need a French drain if water pools in your yard after rain and does not drain within a reasonable period. Alexandria's clay soil holds water near the surface, which often signals a subsurface drainage problem.
A French drain can redirect groundwater and surface runoff away from your foundation before it enters your basement. AllGreen Solutions evaluates your specific site conditions in Alexandria to confirm whether a French drain is the right solution.
French drain repair involves locating the failure point, clearing clogs, replacing damaged pipe sections, and restoring proper flow to the outlet. Many Alexandria systems fail due to root intrusion, sediment buildup, or pipe settling over time.
Yes, French drains are specifically effective in clay-heavy soils like those found across Alexandria, VA. The system collects water above the clay layer and moves it away through perforated pipe before it can pond or push against your home.
Yes, AllGreen Solutions installs new French drain systems and repairs systems that are clogged, damaged, or no longer draining correctly. We serve residential properties throughout Alexandria, VA.
A French drain captures and moves subsurface water through buried perforated pipe, while surface options like swales only redirect water flowing above ground. For Alexandria properties with slow-draining clay soil, a French drain addresses the underground water movement that surface solutions miss.
