Services
Drainage Design
We create customized drainage plans to address property-specific water issues. Our experts analyze soil composition, property layout, and local weather patterns to develop effective solutions. Installations include French drains, area drains, and stormwater management systems that protect foundations and landscaping.
Landscape Installation
Our team implements designed landscapes using premium materials and proven techniques. Services include planting, irrigation systems, and decorative elements that complement drainage solutions. We focus on creating functional outdoor spaces that enhance property value while addressing water management needs.
Retaining Walls
We construct durable retaining walls using concrete, limestone, or steel materials. These structures prevent erosion, manage soil displacement, and create usable flat areas on sloped properties. Our installations combine structural integrity with aesthetic appeal for long-lasting results.
Hardscapes
Our hardscaping services include patios, walkways, and decorative rock features that require minimal maintenance. We use premium concrete, pavers, and natural stone materials to create durable surfaces that complement landscape designs and improve drainage.
Xeriscaping
We design drought-resistant landscapes using native plants and efficient irrigation techniques. This approach reduces water consumption while maintaining aesthetic appeal through strategic plant selection and mulch applications that enhance soil moisture retention.

Amazing. Time and time again, we have read about landscaping nightmares and/or frustrations on NextDoor and elsewhere. Austin Drainage and Landscape Development is a top-notch contractor. They came in after a disastrous experience with another company and did a complete redo. Although we have pretty high expectations, ADLD met them all - and beyond. They are perfectionists; they know their s - t.
In our yards, they did extensive drainage work and repair (and clean up after the previous disaster) and designed two areas to our utmost satisfaction. Their employees are extremely pleasant to work and very knowledgeable. As well as accomodtaing. What a huge relief and pleasure to work with a truly competent and responsive company!

After two other companies failed to resolve the drainage issues we have had in our backyard, ADLD fixed our problem. They extended a French drain to the front of our lot and installed a dry creek bed to facilitate water flow during heavy rains. An easy to work with company.

They came up with a holistic solution for my extensive drainage problems. They surveyed the drainage flow to make sure everything was sloped in the correct direction. They regraded the land, installed french drains, channel drain in my driveway, and diverted the water away from the house to ensure I would not have flooding issues. They were on time and in budget. I had them also install a new walkway to the front of the house, which looks beautiful!
My neighbors compliment how good it looks. So not only is it pretty, it is also very functional. I look forward to a good rain after a dry spell to test it all out! I will follow up with a review after we have a good rain fall.

We were under the gun during our 7 day inspection period when our inspection revealed severe drainage issues with the home. The owner, Kyle, personally came out same day and assured us that his company could fix the problem. After purchasing the house he personally came out and helped draw up a plan and his crew knocked it out. My wife and I absolutely love our yard now! Kyle and his team are friendly, efficient, and are 100% customer focused! Highly recommend.

I can tell you without hesitation to look no further if you are looking for a phenomenal landscape, drainage and irrigation company. I'm not sure I've ever worked with a company who cares more about their work and keeping a customer satisfied. Dale Jennings is the best! He is a great communicator and takes the time and energy to make sure the job is done correctly and professionally from start to finish.
He worked within our budget and rolled out an amazing finished product. Our home is on a steep hillside with a lot of erosion issues. He professionally implemented a plan and executed it beautifully. This company is the best!
