Stop Water From Washing Out Your Drive

Secure driveway culvert pipe installation in Nacogdoches

Your driveway gets washed out every time it rains hard because water has nowhere to go underneath the entrance to your Nacogdoches property. The hollow ring of metal culvert pipe being positioned in the trench and the steady flow of water through properly installed drainage tells you the problem is finally solved.

How deep do you bury the culvert pipe?
Pipes get buried with minimum eighteen inches of cover over the top to support vehicle traffic. The bottom of the pipe sits on compacted gravel bedding that prevents settling and maintains proper slope.

Can you replace an existing culvert that's failing?
Yes, we remove old pipes and install new culverts using proper materials and techniques. Failed culverts often result from inadequate sizing, poor bedding, or insufficient cover over the pipe.
