Collect and Move Water Off Your Property
When a heavy Houston thunderstorm hits, localized flooding can ruin the lawn and threaten the house. To manage heavy surface runoff, Axe Lawn Services offers professional catch basin installation in Houston.
Our firefighter-owned crews design surface yard drains that collect pooling water and move it off the lawn and away from the foundation.
How Catch Basins Protect Your Yard
While French drains handle underground seepage, catch basins, or surface drains, act like gutters for the lawn. They are suited to:
- Downspout Runoff: Catching the volume of water pouring out of the roof gutters.
- Low Spots in the Yard: Sitting at the lowest grade to take puddles before they drown the grass.
- Driveway Runoff: Keeping water from washing out landscape beds.

Frequently Asked Questions About Catch Basins
What is the difference between a catch basin and a French drain?
A catch basin features a grate on the surface and collects heavy, fast-moving surface water. A French drain is a perforated pipe buried in gravel designed to slowly collect subsurface groundwater.
Where does the water go after it enters the drain?
We pipe the collected water away from your foundation, routing it to the street, a designated drainage ditch, or a municipal storm drain.
