Ditches |
Cotton Trucking and Excavating has many, many years of experience correcting drainage issues on properties in Michigan’s Thumb Area serving Huron, Sanilac, Tuscola and surrounding areas. As a residential all around contractor in Michigan, we have many creative and visually appealing ways to correct unsightly drainage issues.Geology can vary significantly. Cotton Trucking and Excavating experience everything from heavy, grey clay soils to beach sand, and usually a combination of everything in between. |
Clay soils usually prevent water from soaking into the ground as fast as we would like, creating ponding or puddles at the surface. Ambient surface water on clay soils can be problematic if drainage is not properly directed away from your home’s foundation. At Cotton Trucking and Excavating we can serve your needs when it comes to ditching and drainage. |
Sandy soils on the other hand are usually easier to work with, seldom causing ponding issues at the surface; However, sandy soils can transmit water movement underground that can create problems such as unwanted springs after heavy rains or a wet season. Contact Us for more information. We are here to serve you to your satisfaction. |
While Cotton Trucking and Excavating can’t change the geology in your area, we can work with the given soil types to create proper slopes, barriers or contours to solve your drainage issues. |
