Drainage Services · Delmar, MD
Elzey Services fixes the wet, soggy yard that turns into a pond after every storm, so your property stays dry and usable. Serving Wicomico and Worcester counties and the surrounding Eastern Shore.
The Elzey Difference
If your yard turns into a pond every time it storms, you're in the right place. Elzey Services designs and repairs yard drainage, French drains, and grading across Delmar and the surrounding Eastern Shore so water moves away from your house instead of pooling against it. Where a previous system failed or was never installed correctly, Elzey diagnoses the actual cause before fixing it, not just patching the symptom.
You deal directly with Otis, who has been solving Delmarva's wet-yard problems since 1996, and your yard stays usable, storm after storm.
What We Do
From new drainage systems to fixing what another contractor got wrong, here's everything Elzey Services handles under drainage.
If your yard turns into a swamp every time it rains, a properly designed drainage system is what actually fixes it, not just landscaping around the problem.
Elzey designs systems that move water away from your house and low spots before it pools, based on how your specific property drains.
For yards with a persistent wet spot that never seems to dry out, a French drain redirects that water underground instead of leaving it sitting on the surface.
It's a targeted fix for the kind of soggy area that turns your lawn to mud after every storm.
If a drainage system on your property has failed, whether it was installed by someone else or has just stopped working over time, Elzey diagnoses the actual cause before fixing it.
That matters because patching the symptom without knowing why it failed usually means you're back to a wet yard within a season.
When water pouring off your roof is pooling against your foundation instead of draining away, an underground downspout system routes it somewhere that won't cause damage.
This is often the fix for water getting in against a wall or basement dampness that shows up after every heavy rain.
If water consistently runs toward your house instead of away from it, the underlying grade of your yard is usually the reason.
Elzey regrades and levels the affected area so water moves in the right direction, correcting the problem at its source instead of just adding more drainage on top of it.

"We live in a community where many of us got together to hire one irrigation company to winterize our irrigation for most of our neighborhood. We contacted five or six to inquire about a group rate and Elzey Services provided the lowest price for a high-quality service. We were also pleased to discover that it's a family run local business. Always good to support these types of businesses."
