Crawlspace & Foundation Drainage Systems in Middle Tennessee

Protecting Homes in Murfreesboro, Franklin, Lebanon & Beyond

In Middle Tennessee, heavy rains and clay-rich soil often spell trouble for homeowners. Without a proper drainage system, water collects around your foundation and crawlspace, leading to flooding, mold, and costly structural damage.

At Crawlspace Crew, we specialize in French drains and egress drainage systems designed for Tennessee’s unique terrain. Whether you’re in a historic Murfreesboro neighborhood, a new subdivision in Mt. Juliet, or a country home in Columbia, we create drainage solutions that keep your crawlspace dry and your foundation safe.

Why Homes Across Middle Tennessee Need Drainage Systems

Every town in our region faces unique water challenges:

  • Murfreesboro & Smyrna – Expanding neighborhoods and new construction often cause poor grading, leaving yards and crawlspaces waterlogged after storms.

  • Franklin & Brentwood – Large homes on sloped lots face water runoff that seeps directly toward foundations.

  • Lebanon & Mt. Juliet – Heavy clay soil holds water, causing standing puddles and long-term drainage problems.

  • Columbia & Spring Hill – Older crawlspaces often lack modern waterproofing, making them highly vulnerable to flooding.

  • Cookeville, Tullahoma & Manchester – Seasonal downpours overwhelm outdated or clogged drain systems.

No matter where you live in Middle Tennessee, a custom drainage system is often the first step to protecting your home.

French Drains: Redirecting Water Away from Your Home

A French drain is one of the most effective solutions for crawlspace and foundation water problems. It uses gravel and perforated piping to redirect groundwater away from your home.

Our team installs French drains that:

  • Prevent water from pooling near your foundation.

  • Reduce crawlspace flooding during storms.

  • Protect basements and lower levels from seepage.

  • Work seamlessly with sump pumps for added protection.

Homeowners in Gallatin, Hendersonville, and White House often rely on French drains to handle the region’s frequent flash flooding and water-heavy soil.

Egress & Surface Drains: Managing Runoff at the Source

Not all drainage issues start underground. Driveways, patios, and sloped yards in La Vergne, Fairview, and Goodlettsville often collect standing water after rain. Over time, that water makes its way into crawlspaces and basements.

Our egress and surface drains:

  • Channel runoff away from foundations.

  • Prevent soil erosion and yard flooding.

  • Work with existing landscaping for discreet installation.

  • Keep your property safer and more functional year-round.
