East Texas rains can cause havoc on our roads and yards. Don’t let the natural flow of water cause wash-outs, wear and tear, damage, or erosion to your property. Placement of culverts and french drains helps to redirect the water flow and allow for proper drainage.

A culvert is a structure that allows water to flow under a road, driveway, or similar obstruction from one side to the other. This drainage pipe solution can be created in various shapes and sizes depending on the unique needs of the project. Culverts are usually buried in soil and made from a pipe, reinforced concrete or other strong material.

Culverts provide relief to drainage ditches at both roadsides and under driveways where water would naturally pass. This prevents the flow of water from eroding the terrain and the structure above it. It is important to hire a professional who understands the formula for successful placement, local easement restrictions, embankment height, and water flow dynamics specific to each project.

At Boyce and Sons Asphalt and Paving, we have been installing culverts and finding drainage solutions for our customers since 1982. Whether you need a culvert placed to prevent erosion or a french drain constructed to direct water flow in your yard or flowerbeds, let the experience and expertise of Charlie and Lance Boyce handle your water flow problem and drainage issues the right way.
