Outdoor Drainage Solutions for Edina Homes and Businesses
Serving clients Edina and surrounding areas
In Edina, beautiful homes and carefully designed landscapes can be quickly compromised by poor drainage. At KG Landscape, we specialize in custom water management systems that solve drainage problems across Edina’s diverse neighborhoods. Since 2003, we’ve helped property owners protect their foundations, manage runoff, and eliminate standing water—while preserving the elegance and value of their outdoor spaces. Our drainage solutions are built to perform in Edina’s variable soils and steep grade changes, all while blending naturally into your landscape.
Drainage Solutions Tailored to Edina Properties
Solving a water issue in Edina requires more than a basic fix—it takes a well-designed system that works with the land and respects the look of your property. Our drainage specialists begin every project with a thorough on-site consultation, analyzing slope, soil absorption, runoff direction, and structural risks. We don’t just stop the water—we manage it in a way that supports the health of your yard, the safety of your foundation, and the curb appeal of your home.
Edina presents unique drainage challenges, from compact urban lots in the Morningside area to sloped terrain near Minnehaha Creek or along Blake Road. Soil conditions can vary dramatically—from dense, slow-draining clay near Lake Edina to looser, sandy soil farther west. Our team’s understanding of these micro-regions allows us to design drainage systems that work with your soil—not against it.
We’ve addressed countless drainage issues in Edina neighborhoods: eliminating water pooling between mid-century homes, creating discreet erosion control solutions for luxury estates, and designing systems that accommodate heavy rainfall and snowmelt without compromising the integrity of older foundations. Our work seamlessly integrates into both traditional landscapes and modern outdoor designs.
With over 20 years of experience, we know how to design systems that last. Whether you’re concerned about water encroaching on your basement, damage to walkways or patios, or soggy turf that won’t recover, we approach each drainage solution with your specific needs and budget in mind.
Our services include everything from initial grading and soil testing to pipe installation, water redirection, and rainwater integration with city systems when appropriate. We take care to preserve surrounding plant life and hardscape features, ensuring the final result is both effective and attractive.

What Our Clients Say About Our Services
Outdoor Drainage Service Questions from Edina Customers
What are the best drainage options for Edina’s older neighborhoods?
We often use a combination of French drains, catch basins, and grading to solve water issues in established areas with compact soil and tight lot lines.
Can proper drainage actually improve the appearance of my Edina landscape?
Absolutely. Drainage systems can be designed to enhance your landscape by eliminating soggy spots, preventing erosion, and incorporating features like decorative rock beds or rain gardens.
What kind of maintenance is required for a custom drainage system?
Most systems need minimal upkeep, though we recommend annual checkups to clear debris, inspect pipes or basins, and confirm water flow remains optimal—especially after heavy winters or large storms.
