Wayzata Outdoor Drainage Solutions
Lakeside Luxury Meets Custom Drainage Solutions
Where Water Challenges Meet Smart, Local Solutions Since 2003
In Golden Valley, unpredictable water patterns can cause homeowners big headaches — from soggy lawns to deeper structural risks. Since 2003, we’ve helped Golden Valley residents solve water drainage problems by designing systems that suit each property’s topography, soil, and style — because one-size-fits-all doesn't work here.
Tailored Expertise for Golden Valley’s Rolling Terrain and Clay-Rich Soils
Solving Water Drainage Problems in Golden Valley’s Diverse Properties
Golden Valley’s unique topography and hydrology present specific challenges that require experience and nuance. Nestled along Bassett Creek and shaped by wooded hills and steep slopes, the area is notorious for surface water runoff issues and yard drainage problems after spring thaw or summer downpours. At KG Landscape, we specialize in turning those water challenges into long-term outdoor drainage solutions.
Golden Valley’s clay-heavy soils retain water longer than neighboring communities. That retention can lead to water pooling in your yard, foundation seepage, or even erosion in steep areas like those near Wirth Park and Theodore Wirth Parkway. We combat these issues with thoughtfully placed french drains, custom grading, and installing a catch basin at runoff trouble spots. For homes with older foundations near Glenwood Junction or the Tyrol Hills area, we reinforce protection with sump pump installation and backfill the trench with a carefully selected gravel mix for optimal performance.
Neighborhoods like South Tyrol, Hidden Lakes, and Medicine Lake Drive face added concerns due to proximity to creeks, wetlands, and forested land. This increases the risk of surface water damage and saturation of the surrounding soil. That’s why we tailor every system — from dry creek beds and rain gardens to fully engineered drainage systems — to both the property’s layout and Golden Valley’s environmental demands.
We also assist commercial properties near General Mills HQ and along Highway 55, which deal with increased impervious surface runoff. Our drainage solutions here must handle both high-volume flow and comply with local stormwater regulations. Regardless of scale, we design to preserve landscape aesthetics while eliminating water drainage problems and preventing damage to your property.
Whether your yard backs up to Bassett Creek Regional Trail or sits on a shaded ridge, KG Landscape brings the expertise to install a french drain, create gravel filled runoff paths, and protect your home from water damage all year round.

What Our Clients Say About Our Services
What Golden Valley Homeowners Ask Us
What makes Golden Valley especially vulnerable to water drainage problems?
Golden Valley’s hilly landscape and clay-rich soils mean water tends to accumulate and move unpredictably, especially after snowmelt or storms. Properties near Bassett Creek or sloped areas like Tyrol Hills often struggle with pooling in yards. We tailor outdoor drainage solutions to these unique features using catch basins, sump pumps, and strategic grading.
Can you work around mature trees and established landscapes?
Absolutely. Golden Valley is known for its beautiful old-growth tree canopy, which adds charm but also complexity to water management. We use minimally invasive trenching and precise grading to preserve root structures while redirecting water flow efficiently. Our french drains and surface water solutions are designed with respect for your landscape and long-term plant health in mind.
Do Golden Valley commercial properties need different drainage systems?
Yes — commercial properties in Golden Valley, such as those near General Mills Boulevard or Highway 100, often experience water drainage problems caused by large impervious surfaces. These areas require scaled drainage systems, including catch basins and sump pumps, to manage high volumes of moving water. Our team also ensures compliance with stormwater regulations while preserving surrounding soil integrity and curb appeal.
