DRAINAGE & IRRIGATION SOLUTIONS IN
NORTH TEXAS
Protect your landscape and home with expert water management systems designed for North Texas soil and climate
Water is one of the most important—and most overlooked—factors in a successful landscape.
In North Texas, heavy clay soil, sudden storms, and poor drainage can lead to standing water, plant damage, and even foundation issues.
At Art That Grows, we design and install drainage and irrigation systems as a core part of every landscape, not an afterthought—because proper water control is essential to long-term success.
Early-on, we discovered that the secret to maintaining long-lasting, beautiful lawns and gardens was proper irrigation and drainage. And for just over 40 years, we have considered drainage and irrigation systems to be an integral part of the foundation for building a successful, lasting landscape.
OUR DRAINAGE SOLUTIONS
We design systems that move water away from your home and landscape safely and efficiently.
Solutions include:
-
French drains to redirect underground water
-
Surface drainage systems for pooling areas
-
Grading and slope correction
-
Drainage swales and river rock channels
-
Downspout and runoff management
We channel excess water to proper municipal or natural drainage points to eliminate pooling and prevent long-term damage.
COMMON DRAINAGE PROBLEMS IN NORTH TEXAS
If you’re experiencing any of the following, you likely have a drainage issue:
-
Standing water after rain
-
Soggy or muddy lawn areas
-
Water pooling near your foundation
-
Dying or stressed plants - plants with excessive moisture
-
Runoff from neighboring properties
-
Interior home flooding
These problems are common due to clay soil, which drains slowly and holds water.
Roof and neighbor rainwater run-offs, and even a nearby creek overflow, are water control issues that can be anticipated for new-home construction or included in a landscape plan.
Equally, we address these drainage issues for existing homes when changes in climate or area water channeling brings excess water onto your property. Contact us at 214-987-0006 while planning before construction or, afterward when a water problem develops.
Art That Grows can help prevent or remedy excess water collection issues.

This turns a problem into a feature and benefit.
IRRIGATION SYSTEMS DESIGNED FOR EFFIENCY
Proper irrigation ensures your landscape gets the right amount of water—no more, no less.
We design systems based on:
-
Soil type and absorption rate
-
Plant types and watering needs
-
Sun exposure and slope
-
Seasonal conditions
Each plant—trees, shrubs, ground cover, lawns, and flowers—has different water requirements, and we design accordingly.
We consider:
-
Soil type and quality
-
Absorption rate
-
Elevations and drainage
-
Plant nutrient delivery requirements
-
Fertilization
-
Even seasonal conditions that merit manual or automatic control.
TYPE OF IRRIGATION SYSTEMS WE INSTALL
-
Drip irrigation (best for beds and plants)
-
Sprinkler systems (for lawns)
-
Zoned systems for efficiency
-
Smart controllers and timers
Drip irrigation is especially effective because it delivers water directly to plant roots with minimal waste.
IRRIGATIOIN SYSTEMS & UPGRADES
We also service and improve existing systems:
-
Fix broken sprinkler heads and lines
-
Adjust coverage and efficiency
-
Expand system lines new landscaping
-
Upgrade controllers and management automation
Even small inefficiencies can waste water and damage plants.
Accidents will happen. We are on-call to fix or repair damaged irrigation systems at 214-987-0006.
Why Drainage & Irrigation Must Be Planned Together
The biggest mistake homeowners make is treating drainage and irrigation separately.
In reality:
-
Too much water = root rot
-
Too little water = plant stress
-
Poor drainage = both problems at once
That’s why we design both systems together from the start.
