Fix the Water Problem. Not Just the Symptoms.
French drains, dry wells, grading corrections, and complete drainage systems for residential and commercial properties throughout New Jersey. A&S Landscaping identifies the source of your water problem and solves it permanently.
Drainage Problems We Solve Every Day
Standing water, soggy lawn areas, basement moisture from surface runoff, and erosion on slopes are all drainage problems with real solutions. A&S identifies the source and installs the fix.
Standing Water
Water pooling in the lawn, near foundations, or in low spots that does not drain within 24-48 hours after rain.
Soggy Lawn Areas
Persistently wet or spongy turf areas that damage grass roots, attract pests, and make the lawn unusable after rain.
Basement & Foundation Moisture
Surface water migrating toward the foundation causes moisture intrusion. Correct grading and drainage keeps water moving away.
Slope Erosion
Slopes that wash out after heavy rain, losing soil and damaging plantings. Proper grading and drainage channels solve this.
The Right Solution for Your Specific Problem
Different drainage problems require different solutions. We assess your site and install what will actually fix the issue.
French Drains
Perforated pipe in a gravel trench that intercepts subsurface water and redirects it away from problem areas.
Surface Grading & Regrading
Correcting slope and grade so water flows away from structures and toward appropriate discharge points.
Catch Basins & Channel Drains
Surface inlets that capture runoff from driveways, patios, and low spots and direct it to a discharge point.
Dry Creek Beds
Decorative stone channels that manage surface runoff while adding a natural landscape feature to slopes and swales.
Downspout Extensions & Buried Leaders
Routing downspout discharge away from the foundation through buried pipe that daylights in the lawn or a dry well.
Sump Pump Discharge Lines
Buried discharge lines that carry sump pump output away from the foundation to a proper outlet location.
Why Choose A&S for Drainage Work
We Find the Source, Not Just the Symptom
Covering up wet spots does not fix drainage. We trace the problem back to its source and address that — so the fix actually holds.
Integrated With Landscaping
Drainage work often intersects with grading, retaining walls, and planting. Because we do all of it in-house, solutions are coordinated, not patched together.
Proper Permits and Grading
When permits are required for grading or drainage work, we handle the process. We know local requirements across New Jersey municipalities.

Common Questions About Drainage Solutions
Drainage Often Pairs With These Services
Drainage work frequently intersects with these other services on the same property.
Retaining Walls
Slope drainage and retaining walls often go hand-in-hand. We design and install walls that manage grade while drainage handles the water.
Paver Patios & Walkways
Patio drainage is addressed as part of the installation. We correct drainage issues that affect hardscape performance.
Landscape Design & Installation
Drainage corrections are often part of a larger landscape renovation. We handle the full scope in-house.
“Professional from start to finish. The retaining wall they built solved our drainage problem and looks like it's been there forever. Worth every penny.”
