914 Yard Drainage & French Drains in Irvington, NY
Irvington is a Hudson River village with steep streets: the typical home was built around 1956 and 69% pre-date 1980. Larger Westchester properties often have slopes, ledge, retaining walls and mature landscaping, which affect how and where water can be moved. Ask a drainage contractor where the water will go, whether any neighboring property or municipal system is involved, and whether a permit is required for the work.

Frequently asked questions
How many yard drainage companies serve Irvington?
We show 6 of 11 companies we found for Irvington: 5 name Irvington as an area they serve, and the rest serve all of Westchester County. Always confirm a company covers your address.
Does Irvington require a permit for this work?
Often yes. See the permit notes on this page, then call the Irvington building department before you sign a contract.
Do I need a French drain or just better grading?
If water pools near the foundation after rain, regrading and downspout extensions are the cheapest first step. A French drain helps where grading alone cannot move the water.
Where should downspouts discharge?
Well away from the foundation, onto ground that slopes away, or into a buried line that outlets downhill. Water dumped next to the house can soak back to the footing.
