French drain installation in Williamsport, Tennessee

Drainage in Williamsport

Duck River bottomland, where the water table sits high and stays high through the winter. Drainage design here has to account for the fact that the ground itself is often already full.

Two things decide how water behaves on a property in this part of Tennessee. The first is the ground itself, clay subsoil sitting over limestone, which drains slowly and pushes water sideways rather than down. The second is where the property sits in relation to everything uphill of it, because a great deal of what shows up in a yard here did not fall on it. That is why an assessment worth having starts at the top of the slope and works down, rather than starting at the puddle.
