Flooded yards after heavy rain, sections that never fully dry out, foundation moisture, plants that keep dying in specific bed areas. These look like different problems but almost always share the same root cause: water is not going where it should. Greenview Landscaping provides complete drainage and irrigation solutions for Fort Worth residential and commercial properties, from French drains, channel drains, and surface drain systems that redirect excess water, to custom irrigation designs that deliver the right amount to the right zones without creating the runoff conditions that fuel the problem in the first place. Locally owned and operating since 2016, we hold a 4.8-star Google rating and A+ BBB accreditation built on work that addresses the whole picture rather than selling a single-system fix to a multi-system problem.

Poor drainage is one of the most expensive problems a Fort Worth property owner can ignore. Standing water, soggy yards, foundation seepage, and landscape flooding after rain events are all signs that your property needs a properly engineered drainage system — and Greenview Landscaping has the expertise to design and install one that works. We install French drains, channel drains, surface drains, and slope-correction systems that direct water away from your foundation, hardscaping, and landscaped areas before it causes damage. Alongside drainage work, we design and install irrigation systems that keep your lawn and plantings properly watered without waste, calibrated to North Texas seasonal rainfall and temperature patterns. North Texas clay soil creates unique drainage challenges that require experienced local contractors who know the terrain.

Why Drainage and Irrigation Matter
Water is essential for your yard, but too much or too little can quickly cause problems. Poor drainage can lead to flooding, soil erosion, foundation damage, and unhealthy plants. On the other hand, inadequate irrigation leaves grass dry, patchy, and vulnerable to disease.
Professional drainage and irrigation systems strike the perfect balance—protecting your property from water damage while delivering the right amount of hydration to keep your lawn and landscape thriving.
Custom Drainage Solutions
North Texas is known for heavy rains and clay soils that don’t drain easily. Without proper drainage, water can pool in your yard, kill grass, attract pests, and even seep into your home’s foundation. At Greenview Landscaping, we design drainage systems that solve these issues and keep your property safe.
Our drainage services include:
- French Drains – Subsurface systems that redirect water away from your home and yard.
- Surface Drains – Catch basins and grates that collect and move water away from low-lying areas.
- Channel Drains – Ideal for driveways, pool decks, and patios to prevent water buildup.
- Grading & Sloping – Adjusting your yard’s elevation to encourage natural water flow.
With our custom drainage solutions, you’ll have a dry, usable lawn even after heavy rainfall.
Efficient Irrigation Systems
Maintaining a green, healthy lawn in Texas requires consistent watering—but doing it by hand is time-consuming and often wasteful. That’s where professional irrigation systems make all the difference.
We design and install irrigation systems that deliver the right amount of water to your lawn and plants, conserving resources while promoting long-term health. Our team also provides system maintenance, repairs, and seasonal adjustments to keep everything running smoothly.
Benefits of a professional irrigation system include:
- Consistent watering schedules for lawns and plants
- Reduced water waste with efficient designs
- Protection from overwatering and underwatering
- Healthier, greener grass and stronger root systems
- Long-term savings on water bills
Drainage and Irrigation Repairs
If your current system isn’t working properly, we can help. Clogged drains, broken sprinkler heads, leaky pipes, or malfunctioning controllers can all affect your yard’s health. Our team provides quick diagnostics and reliable repairs to restore your system’s performance.
By addressing problems early, you prevent costly water damage, wasted resources, and lawn deterioration.
Seasonal Maintenance and Inspections
Drainage and irrigation systems require regular checkups to stay effective. Seasonal maintenance helps ensure that your system is ready for the challenges of each season—heavy spring rains, hot Texas summers, and winter freezes.
Our maintenance services include:
- Inspecting and testing irrigation zones
- Adjusting sprinkler heads for proper coverage
- Cleaning drains and removing blockages
- Checking timers and controllers for efficiency
- Winterizing systems to prevent freeze damage
With regular inspections, your systems will operate at peak efficiency year after year.

From small yards to large commercial campuses, Greenview Landscaping has the expertise to design, install, and maintain water management systems of all sizes.
Drip Irrigation Systems for North Texas Properties
Drip irrigation delivers water directly to the root zone of plants through a network of low-pressure emitters rather than spraying water across a wide area. This method is particularly effective for flowerbeds, foundation plantings, raised garden beds, vegetable gardens, and shrub borders where water is most useful at soil level rather than on foliage.
In North Texas, drip systems reduce water loss from evaporation during summer heat and prevent wet foliage conditions that promote fungal disease on ornamental plants. A properly designed drip zone uses pressure-compensating emitters that deliver consistent output regardless of elevation changes across a sloped planting area.
We install drip irrigation systems as standalone zone additions to existing sprinkler controllers or as part of complete irrigation system designs. Emitter spacing and flow rate are determined by plant type and soil drainage rate. We also install inline drip tubing for large-scale shrub beds and perennial plantings where individual emitters are not practical.
Drip systems require minimal maintenance compared to spray heads. Annual flushing of the supply lines and inspection of individual emitters for clogs or damage is typically all that is needed to keep a drip zone performing reliably.
Sprinkler System Design for Fort Worth Lawns
A properly designed sprinkler system divides your property into irrigation zones based on plant type, sun exposure, soil drainage, and slope. Turf areas require different precipitation rates and head spacing than shrub beds or ground cover plantings. Mixing turf and plant zones on the same controller circuit leads to either overwatered plants or underwatered grass, which is one of the most common inefficiencies we correct when diagnosing existing systems.
We design sprinkler layouts that account for the specific grass varieties common across Fort Worth properties. Bermuda grass requires more frequent watering during peak summer growth but tolerates heat stress better than St. Augustine. St. Augustine has a broader blade and shades soil more effectively but needs consistent soil moisture and performs poorly in compacted clay without adequate drainage. Zoysia is a slower-growing option that requires less mowing and handles drought periods well once established. Head selection matters for long-term performance. We install rotary heads for larger turf areas, fixed spray heads for smaller or irregularly shaped zones, and MP rotator heads where water pressure is variable or where we need to match precipitation rates across zones on the same circuit. All new system designs include a backflow preventer to protect the home’s water supply from contamination.
Irrigation Repair in Fort Worth and DFW
Irrigation systems in North Texas experience predictable failure patterns after exposure to Texas heat, soil expansion and contraction, and the damage that occurs during lawn maintenance. The most common repairs we perform include:
Broken or misaligned sprinkler heads. Heads get struck by mowers, pushed out of alignment by soil movement, or crack from heat and UV exposure. A broken head wastes significant water and leaves portions of the zone without coverage. We replace heads with matching units or upgrade to more durable alternatives when the original specification is no longer appropriate for the zone.
Controller and timer failures. Irrigation controllers can lose programming after power interruptions or simply fail after years of exposure. We diagnose whether the controller itself is faulty or whether the problem is a wiring issue between the controller and the valve. In many cases a controller upgrade improves water efficiency through better scheduling options and rain sensor integration.
Leaking or stuck valves. Zone valves can fail in the open or closed position. An open-stuck valve causes continuous water flow to a zone even when the system is off. A closed-stuck valve means one zone never activates. Both conditions require valve replacement or solenoid service.
Lateral pipe damage. PVC lateral lines crack when soil shifts significantly or when mechanical damage occurs during digging. We locate the break, excavate the affected section, and replace it with matching pipe and fittings. If the system has older poly pipe that has become brittle, we recommend replacing the full lateral run rather than patching.
We service irrigation systems across Fort Worth, Keller, Southlake, Arlington, Bedford, and surrounding Tarrant County cities.
