French drain installation in Spring Hill, Tennessee

Drainage in Spring Hill

The fastest growing part of the county and the source of the most drainage complaints. Subdivision lots are cut and filled to a plan, the fill is compacted, and the topsoil layer over it is thin, so water runs rather than soaks.

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.
