French Drain & Drainage Installation Services in Southeast Wisconsin
Standing water and a flooding basement are not landscaping problems — they are engineering problems. New Mecca installs permanent, structural subterranean drainage across Southeast Wisconsin that intercepts groundwater below grade and carries it away by gravity, eliminating standing water, soggy turf, and the basement-flooding yard conditions behind them.
As an owner operated and fully insured operation, every system is built to last by the person you hired — correct depth, correct slope, proper gravel and fabric, and a real discharge point. Homeowners and disaster restoration contractors rely on us to fix the water at its source so the same flooding does not come back.

Our Drainage Installation Process
Diagnose the Water
We assess grade, soil, the water table, and where the water is coming from, then identify a safe discharge point.
Engineer the System
We map the drain route and slope so water is intercepted below grade and carried away by reliable gravity fall.
Excavate & Build
The trench is cut to depth, then lined with filter fabric, washed gravel, and perforated pipe for a permanent structure.
Backfill & Restore
We backfill, compact, and restore the surface, leaving a dry, stable yard and a clean site.
Who We Work With
- Homeowners fighting standing water and soggy yards
- Homeowners with basement seepage and flooding
- Disaster restoration contractors
- Property managers handling recurring water issues
- Realtors and investors prepping wet properties
