In South Louisiana, heavy rain and flat ground make good drainage essential. Xcavate Land Solutions provides drainage solutions and site work in Lafayette, Louisiana and throughout Acadiana for homeowners, builders, businesses and landowners.
We study how water flows across your property, find where it collects, and build a solution that fits, from French drains and culverts to ditches, swales and regrading. Paired with our grading and site preparation and excavation services, we fix the cause of the problem, not just the symptoms.
Every drainage problem is different. Whether it is a flooded backyard or a commercial lot that will not drain, we bring the right equipment, the right crew, and a clear plan to keep water moving where it should.
Yards that hold water, water near the foundation, soggy lawns and flooded driveways fixed with French drains, swales and proper grading.
Parking lots, building sites and subdivisions with storm drain lines, culverts, ditches and grading built to keep sites dry and compliant.
Field ditches, pasture drainage, driveway culverts and pond outflows that keep farm land productive and access roads passable after heavy rain.
Stabilizing ditches, banks and slopes to stop soil loss, protect structures and keep your property looking good for years.
Gravel-filled trenches with perforated pipe that collect and carry groundwater and surface water away from foundations, yards and low spots before it can pool.
Correctly sized and set culverts under driveways, roads and field crossings so water flows freely without washing out your access or flooding the road.
New ditches cut to the right depth and slope, and existing ditches cleaned of silt, brush and debris to restore proper flow on residential and rural properties.
We reshape the ground and build shallow swales that guide surface water away from structures and toward ditches or drains, one of the most effective fixes for yard flooding.
Trenching and installation of storm drain lines, catch basins and downspout drains that connect your property to a safe discharge point.
Slope stabilization, rock and riprap, and regrading to stop erosion along ditches, banks and driveways and protect the land you have invested in.
Good drainage is about understanding where water comes from, where it wants to go, and how to get it there without causing new problems for you or your neighbors.
At Xcavate Land Solutions, we walk the property, look at the grade, soil and existing drainage, and recommend the most effective solution for your budget. From a single French drain to complete site drainage for commercial and agricultural properties, we do it right the first time.
From the first site visit to the final cleanup, we keep your drainage project clear and hassle-free. You will always know what is happening on your property and what comes next.

Common signs include water that stands for hours or days after rain, soggy or muddy lawn areas, water near or against your foundation, eroded soil, washed-out driveways, and moisture in crawl spaces or garages.
A French drain is a gravel-filled trench with a perforated pipe that collects water underground and carries it away. It works well for low spots, soggy yards and water collecting near a foundation, especially where regrading alone is not enough.
Cost depends on the type of solution, the length of drain or ditch, materials, access and how much grading is needed. We inspect your property and give you a free, clear quote before any work begins.
Yes. We install culverts under driveways, roads and field crossings, sized correctly and set at the right grade so water flows through instead of backing up or washing out.
Yes. We clean silted-in and overgrown ditches and dig new ones to the proper depth and slope to restore flow on residential, commercial and agricultural property.
In many cases, yes. Proper slope away from the house is the first line of defense. Some properties also need French drains, swales or culverts, and we recommend the combination that will work best for your site.
Some drainage work, especially culverts in public right-of-way or work that affects neighboring property or wetlands, may require parish or city approval. We can help you understand the requirements before the project starts.
Yes. We plan and install site drainage during site preparation for new homes, shops and commercial buildings, so water is handled correctly from day one.
Most residential French drain and grading jobs take one to three days. Larger ditch, culvert and commercial drainage projects take longer. We give you a realistic timeline before work begins.
