Drainage Solutions

Standing water, flooded basements, and saturated soil can cause serious damage to your home’s foundation, landscaping, driveway, and septic system. In rural eastern Ontario — where clay soils, seasonal water tables, and spring runoff are common — proper drainage isn’t optional. It’s essential.

Marchington Excavation provides professional drainage solutions for residential and commercial properties across Lanark County, Renfrew, Mississippi Mills, West Carleton, Manotick, Greely, Kemptville, Cumberland, Rockland, and the Ottawa area.

Our Drainage Services

Weeping Tile Installation

We install interior and exterior weeping tile systems to redirect groundwater away from your foundation. Proper weeping tile prevents basement flooding and moisture damage. If your existing weeping tile has failed, we can excavate and replace it.

Culvert Installation & Replacement

Culverts are essential for managing water flow across driveways, laneways, and road crossings. We install new culverts and replace damaged or undersized ones that cause flooding or erosion.

French Drains

We install French drain systems — gravel-filled trenches with perforated pipe that collect and redirect subsurface water to a safe discharge point.

Grading & Surface Drainage

Improper grading around a home is one of the most common causes of water problems. We re-grade the land around your property to ensure water flows away from your foundation, not toward it.
