Any one out there looking for yard drain work make sure and contact Drain X. these were the only contractor that came out and absolutely offered common sense drainage solutions based on our significant need. i suffered from rain run off throughout my back yard tht left my covered patios covered with dirt and mulch covering my patio areas that caused hours of clean up after any moderate rain. I had two contractors come out, take measurements and left never to get back to me also had contractors come out and wanted to incorporate multiple sump pumps requiring power runs that I didn't have and at a cost that made my head spin. Drain x laid out a practical solution that was in my opinion very reasonable. Their crew showed up and hand dug the necessary trenches, positioned drains and repaired the dig area and replanted displaced grass that has grown back very well. Always had supervision checking the plan and work. After the rains We received previously and last nights coastal disturbance (significant rain) the drainage plan has been wonderful. I highly recommend and urge you to Give Drain X a call if you need help.
Highly recommend 👌

We had them install French drains on both sides of our house and replace our fence. They did a great job and no more standing water in our yard and around our foundation! The fence is top quality and beautiful. Hardly any space between the pickets for optimal privacy. My neighbors and myself are 100% happy with the final product. I also wanted to add that his work crew was amazing and they picked up after themselves daily and didn’t leave trash in our yard. This owner and his crew are the best.

Drain X Perts absolutely exceeded my expectations. They responded quickly, showed up when they said they would, and did a fantastic job from start to finish. When I needed some modifications made to the stub-outs to accommodate new downspouts, they came back out promptly and handled everything seamlessly. Owner James Hill is incredibly knowledgeable and an absolute pleasure to work with — you can tell he really cares about doing things right. Drain X Perts came highly recommended, and they lived up to it 100%. Couldn’t be happier with the service!

Jimmy and crew showed up and showed off. My drainage headache has been ongoing for literally years. I paid for a solution last year that was no solution at all and I was at the end of my rope. These guys made it seem easy. After the rain of the last few days, I believe I can finally say with confidence the issue has been resolved and is firmly in the rear view mirror. I can't express how grateful I am. The price is fair, the work supererior, cleanup outstanding and the system just works. Thank you Nathan and Jimmy👍

Used these guys for finding a storm drain line that had been buried for years. Nathan did a great job; on time and fair price. He was able to find the line and offer a quick and affordable fix to get us in a better spot for storm drainage.

They came out to see our property within 24 hours of first contact and I had a quote before they left. That alone tells you they care about service. They finished the work within two business days and didn’t leave a trace. Highly recommend!

I don’t typically write reviews, but I felt this one was well-deserved. I waited a full year to see how the drainage system held up through an entire rainy season before sharing my experience, and I couldn’t be more impressed. The team at Drain Xperts was phenomenal—professional, punctual, and thorough. They delivered exactly what they promised, completing the project on time and leaving my yard clean and restored. Most importantly, the system has performed flawlessly. Even during heavy rains, my yard remains dry and usable, which was never the case before. It’s rare to find a company that combines excellent workmanship with such reliability. Drain Xperts exceeded expectations, and I recommend them with complete confidence (see photos below for transformation of my yard).

I would highly recommend Jimmy and his crew. He did a great job with installing our backyard drainage system. Our backyard flooded every time it rained. After he installed the drainage system in our backyard we no longer experienced the flooding issue and are grass is much healthier for it. Months later we experienced an issue with the pop up valve in our front yard which was causing a lot of water puddling and ruining the surrounding grass. This was no fault of Jimmy's because he wanted to extend the drain out to the main drain but the city would not allow him to do this. I contacted him about the water puddling issue and he went out an corrected it immediately by moving the pop valve next to the sidewalk to prevent further puddling.
Response from the owner:Thank you Kenny I am happy that we were able to resolve your flooding issues. The system will continue to work great and please call if you need anything we will be here for you. Be Blessed
These folks definitely know what they're doing. Built a great system to take water from yard, gutters and pool deck to the street. After they left you hardly knew they were there. Thoroughly impressed.
Response from the owner:Thank you Joshua we want to give you a good system and not destroy your yard in the process. We understand that people spend a lot of money on their landscaping and me being a landscaper for many years appreciate a well kept yard. We do our best to put everything back in its place. We appreciate the trust in our company and please let us know if you need anything else. Be Blessed

Jimmy and his crew, along with Nathan did a fantastic job on our project. I'd also add their administrative assistant was very attentive and would constantly call to provide updates on the scheduling. She was on top of it! They did a very difficult job of having to move water all the way around the back side of our structure and then to the street. They tied not only our new gutters in but our existing ones as well to meet the city of League City's rigorous permitting. We added quite a few area drains as well and they tied it all in together. When I was looking for a drainage company, I only wanted a company that specializes in it and will do it right the first time. I didn't want just a sprinkler guy or landscape guy who said they can do it. I came home from work and everything done perfectly and cleaned up to perfection. Best of all, the drainage system worked perfectly. It was all sloped just right. I'd highly recommend Drain X Perts to anyone. In terms of pricing, you get what you pay for. Quality materials and their expertise. No surprise on the billing either. We did have to make a few changes during the project and Jimmy worked with me on a fair price for those. Thanks again to the crew! Brian - League City, TX

Drain Xperts did a large drainage job on our property. They were friendly, efficient, and treated our property with respect. Great communication and customer service all the way around!! Recommend 10/10!
Response from the owner:Thank you Allison I am happy that you were pleased with the install it was a pleasure working with you. We do our best to not destroy any landscaping that our customers installed. From coming from a landscaping background and now doing Drainage I know what it takes to install a beautiful landscape and then have to get it torn apart for drainage. This is why we try to make it as painless as possible and put everything back to its original beauty. Please let us know if you need anything else. Be Blessed

I think they are very good at what they do, installing drains. Where they lose a star (maybe 2) for me is the finishing/landscaping. See photos. It's a mess, more/less. Edit: changed to 5stars! Nathan reached out to me. He wasn't satisfied w the sub par performance/<5star review so the team made an attempt to clean up the mess. Happy to report, I'm now a happy customer! Thank you!
Response from the owner:We try or best to put it all back together and also we cut out all the grass to keep our customers from having to by new sod when we first finish it always looks a little disorganized but does not take long for the grass to come back so long as you keep watering it. I do see that a little trash was left and I do apologize and will talk to the guys about it. I will call you tomorrow also and will be happy to come back and try to clean it up a little more and please in the future feel free to call because we are very in tuned to trying to make our customers happy and would have been back to take care of you. Hopefully we can get a hold of you tomorrow and we can remedy the situation. Thank you for your business and we can assure that your system will work perfectly..

James and his crew did an excellent job solving our drainage issues around our pool. It looks nice, and finished quickly before more rain came. They are knowledgeable, prompt, fair and honest. I would definitely use them again. You want this company if you have drainage problems.They will exceed your expectations!
Response from the owner:Thank you I am so happy your are pleased with our services thank you for all the kind words we strive to put in a quality product with customer satisfaction at the top of our list. Please feel free to call for anything we do guarantee our drainage to work. Be Blessed
Jimmy did an amazing job on installing my French drains and talking me through the process. He was timely in his initial appointment and his crew were always there on time and worked late as well. Jimmy knows everything about drainage and has been very helpful and thorough to answer questions even when drainage occurs. The pricing was also fair and definitely well worth the quality. I would definitely recommend drain x perts to anyone that is looking for drain work, and I will def use them on other properties I have. Thanks for a great job done!
Response from the owner:Yes sir you had a very unique situation and I was Happy to help you solve such an important problem before you wasted more money on solutions that did not remedy the problem. Thank you for trusting us to solve it for you and thank you for all the kind words we look forward to working with you in the future.

Drain Xperts did a quick, professional install and most importantly, Hurricane Beryl's torrential rain tested the quality. Drain Xperts passed the test!
Response from the owner:Thank you a properly installed system drains water fast unfortunately many people are installing corrugated systems that don’t work and don’t last. I am glad that we were able to do business together and we were able to install a drainage system that will last for many years to come. Remember we also offer water jetting when ever you need the lines cleaned out make sure you clean out the basins periodically just a reminder. Be Blessed

I called Drain X Perts about re-grading a portion of my yard and adding drainage to some low spots after a pool construction. Jimmy met up and provided a quote quickly and scheduled the work quickly. They completed the work in a day, left a clean job site and completed the job as expected. If I have another similar need, I'd have no hesitation from using Drain X Perts again.
Response from the owner:Thank you so much for the kind words we try hard to focus on good quality workmanship. Drainage is important and must be done correctly to move damaging water away from your property. Thank you again for putting your trust in us and feel free to call if you need anything else. Be Blessed
Excellent and very pleasant team of men who does a superb job! This is my second time using this company for work in my yard. First, was to put in a French drainage system in the left side of my backyard to remove excess water from both mine and my neighbor's yard. Excess water in our backyards became a problem right after Hurricane Havery. They did such an excellent job that I had to reach out to them a second time when the right side of my backyard developed the same problem. For the second job in addition to putting in a drainage system they installed a sprinkler system. OMG, the sprinkler system is placed in such a strategic way, so that every inch of the yard is wet through each cycle. Five star is not enough to tell how excellent a job this company provides.
Response from the owner:It was a pleasure to work with you both times. We are so pleased that you were so happy with the work that you returned a second time. Like I told you when I gave you the estimate you made our loyal customers list. My whole crew loved working with you it is not everyday that the customer comes out and really gets to know my employees. You shed light wherever you go. Be blessed and please call if you need anything

I highly recommend James, he is a true drainage expert who fixed my complicated backyard drainage issue for a reasonable price. He was trustworthy and honest from start to finish. Definitely worth the investment.
Response from the owner:Thank you so much. It is sad when I see systems that contractors charged customers for and they are done that is clear that they did not know what they were doing or just did not care. Unfortunately I see it a lot. Yard Drainage is so important as water sitting around your home can do severe damage an that is why it is so important to get it done the right way. I was so happy that we were able to get everything working properly pass inspection and get the storm water away from your home. You were a pleasure to work with and thanks for the donut holes.

Our back porch and sidewalk would flood when we experienced heavy rains, so we had Drain X Perts install a drainage system this past summer. We did not experience any heavy rains until this past Thursday when it rained almost 5 inches. The system worked perfectly and we didn't experienced any flooding. We would highly recommend this company. By the way, we also had a foundation company from Houston give us a bid which was considerably higher, and they said we would have to install a sump pump, and they were going to dump the water into a flower bed rather than running it to the street.
Response from the owner:Thank you so much for the review and I apologize for the late reply. I am so happy to hear stories like these. We love taking care of drainage issues and doing it right. We know that flooding rains can cause anxiety and that a new properly installed drainage system brings peace of mind. We do not like to install sump pumps unless it is absolutely necessary meaning the ground has no slope or negative slope. A gravity fed system move way more water than a pump can and one less thing to maintain. 98 percent of yards usually have enough slope as we only need 1 inch to every 10 feet. I am glad to hear you handles the rain well and the system did what it was installed to do and please feel free to call if you need anything else. Be Blessed

Jimmy and his crew installed proper drainage for my 1977 home! We had foundation issues and the foundation company told us that our house doesn’t have proper drainage. The foundation company took forever to get back to us on recommendations for a drainage company. Google searched and found Drain X Perts. Jimmy came out, knowledgeable on knowing what needs to be done. Work was completed within 3 days time during the rainy season. Jimmy made sure I was satisfied with the work. Month and half later, I requested needing more bull rocks to fill my garden bed drainage area and he was able to get his crew out there to complete the job.

Response from the owner:Yes sir I am glad the system worked well for you. There was a lot of landscape to build the system around but am glad we were able to incorporate our drainage system in and place the landscape back with some enhancing features to also help with drainage. I always enjoy a unique situation that I can figure out how to get the water out and make it work. You were awesome to work with. We stand behind our work and are aimed for customer satisfaction everytime every job. Be Blessed

I reached out to Jimmy at the beginning of this year after my neighbor recommended his company to install drainage in my backyard after I experienced flooding from heavy rains. Jimmy was wonderful to work with, answered all my questions, and was very communicative. His team was very clean and put everything back the way they found it. Jimmy was able to resolve several flooding problems I was having and I have not had any issues since. Additionally, I had him install sprinklers while we were already tearing up the yard. After they were done with installation, he took the time to help me identify each sprinkler zone, showed me how to use the system, and taught me how to manually adjust the sprinkler heads if needed. He was wonderful to work with and I would highly recommend him!
Response from the owner:Jamie I apologize for the late reply but it was such a pleasure to work with you. You had a big issue of water around your garage and home and I was so happy that we were able to solve it for you. I know we had some problems with it raining when we trying to get it inspected but you were so patient and understanding as we tried to dry out the ditch so the inspector would pass it. I hope this finds you doing well and dry. Thank you for sending your brother our way and please continue to send our name out and we will continue to do an outstanding job for all you send our way. Thank you so much and be blessed
They did an awesome job!!! Its beyond my expectations! Thank you guys!
