Burlee's Excavation and Drains

That DIY drainage fix looked great… right up until the next heavy rain showed up with other plans.

We see it all the time. Quick solutions, guesswork grading, and “we’ll just see if this works” projects that don’t quite make it through storm season.

The truth is, drainage problems usually need more than a weekend fix. They need the right slope, the right system, and a plan that actually moves water where it’s supposed to go. That’s where Burlee’s comes in: French drains, catch basins, re-grading, and full drainage solutions that are built to last.

Because round two with the same pond? Nobody has time for that.

Some clogs are stubborn… like really stubborn. The kind that act like they pay rent in your pipes.

That’s where high-pressure water jetting comes in.

We send a super-powered stream of water through your lines to break up grease, clear out buildup, and send blockages packing. No harsh chemicals, no guessing, and no drama. Just clean pipes and things flowing the way they’re supposed to.

Trust the sewer and water specialists at Burlee’s Excavation & Drains.

Standing water in your yard has a way of overstaying its welcome… like that guest who “just stopped by” and never left.

If your lawn has turned into a shallow pond after every rain, it might be time for more than wishful thinking.

We track down the cause of the flooding and build real solutions – from re-sloping and French drains to catch basins and more – so your yard can actually dry out and do yard things again.

Because honestly… this isn’t a lake house.

Before there’s a dream home, there’s usually a whole lot of dirt… and a whole lot of “wow, that’s more than I expected.”

Lot foundation excavation is where things start to get real – measurements, grades, heavy equipment, and just enough precision to make it look easy (spoiler: it’s not).

We handle the digging so your project doesn’t start with a shovel, a guess, and a prayer. From first cut to final grade, we make sure your build starts on solid ground, literally.
