What’s the difference?

Isn’t a drainage project a drainage project? If I get two estimates to “drain my farm” can’t I just pick the lowest cost estimate?

Drainage is a complex field of engineering. And the planning and construction of a drainage system represents one opportunity after another for the overly-cost-focused contractor to save time and bury mistakes. Why is the single most important land improvement often thought of like a commoditized cost, instead of a high-yield investment? Our customers understand that land improvements are investments, and they trust our team to get the highest return for them on every dollar invested.

 

“That field that Clark Farm Drainage pattern tiled paid for itself AND put money in my pocket in the first year! It went from my worst yielding field to my best.”

—Roger C., IN Farmer

Soil water management.

Manage excess soil water and ensure your field is ready when you’re ready. Stop invisible yield losses in their tracks with our assessment, planning and construction services for conventional or controlled tile drainage, and dual-use tile drainage/irrigation systems. If you don’t have a gravity outlet, we will design and install a custom lift station, with optional remote monitoring.

Open ditches.

The backbone of most drainage infrastructure is a network of open ditches, without which vast areas of our fertile farmland would be impossible to farm. Whether it’s cleaning, clearing, debrushing, dipping, shaping or total reconstruction, our team is here to tackle the project.

Pond & wetland construction.

Nothing will add more enjoyment and natural beauty to your property than a professionally planned and constructed pond, lake, or wetland. Countless homeowners invest hundreds of thousands—or even millions—into their homes, with little attention paid to the tremendous potential of their land to create a stunning retreat that friends and family will enjoy for generations.

Construction dewatering.

Many large civil projects run significantly over budget, or even worse, are not possible to complete without sufficient construction dewatering in advance of earthwork and utility construction. From engineers to contractors, customers call us when they need to get the water out.
