Why Choose Cruger Contracting for Drainage Systems & Water Management in Arlington
Cruger Contracting LLC specializes in diagnosing and solving drainage problems that threaten property stability and curb appeal in Arlington, Dutchess County. Poor drainage can lead to foundation damage, soil erosion, and flooded lawns — but these issues are preventable with proper design and installation. Our process begins with a detailed site evaluation to assess slope, grading, soil type, and water flow patterns. We design systems that fit your property, using a combination of subsurface French drains, catch basins, dry wells, and regrading techniques to direct water safely away from your home and landscaping.
Every installation follows strict preparation standards, including precise trench depth, proper slope, clean stone base, and high-quality perforated piping with filter fabric to prevent clogging. Surface systems like swales and downspout redirections are integrated seamlessly into lawns or hardscapes for clean, functional results. Cruger Contracting LLC combines technical precision with real-world experience, ensuring every system is built to handle NY rainfall and freeze-thaw conditions year after year. Most drainage installations in Arlington, Dutchess County are completed within 2–5 days depending on property size and soil conditions. Free consultations include full site inspection, drainage diagnostics, and system recommendations tailored to Arlington homeowners.

What Clients Say..
James was great to work with. He was proactive and did exactly what he said he would do at the price we agreed to.

Cruger Contractors arrived when they indicated they would be on the jobsite. They were efficient in completing the work and the results looked great.
Bruce H.
This project was large at least in my dwelling place. Restructure of the brick work I put in over 15 years ago. I had weeds growing uncontrollably and starting to hurt my plants. Cruger took care of it and even saved some of my favorites. Cruger has shown pride in their work and were extremely kind and wanted to do the best they can to achieve it. I am extremely satisfied in the final product. They were very fair in their pricing and were happy to work with my budget. I can’t stop looking at it. It brings a lot of joy and gives me an opportunity to add what I feel like adding without a weed issue ever again. Give them a call and you’ll be happy you did.
Howard B.
James did a phenomenal job. He cleared a large bluestone planter, mulched and planted a beautiful variety of perennials. He planted new azalea bushes in 2 other locations and everything looks amazing. His work was meticulously done. We are very pleased with how everything turned out, and will be calling James Cruger LLC for future work. Highly recommended.
