Why Choose Cruger Contracting for Drainage Systems & Water Management in Pine Plains
Cruger Contracting LLC specializes in diagnosing and solving drainage problems that threaten property stability and curb appeal in Pine Plains, 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 Pine Plains, 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 Pine Plains homeowners.

Every system is engineered for your property’s slope and soil type to prevent flooding, pooling, and erosion before they start. Our drainage work is built to perform through every NY season.

Clean, Hidden, and Effective Installations
Our drainage systems are designed to disappear into your landscape while working flawlessly underground.

Beautiful job. Very personable and reliable.
Lauretta C.

We would absolutely hire Cruger Contracting again. James was quick to return our call and came right away. That afternoon he had come back with a very fair quote. Regraded our front lawn with 40 yards of screened soil, also laid a drainage pipe from a basement sump pump approximately 100ft underground. They finished the job with seeding and covered with straw mulch. Fantastic job—thank you, would highly recommend.

He is super prompt and responsive to your needs and with minimal explanation he made exactly what I was looking for. If you are looking for someone who is professional, courteous and neat, and does it all at a reasonable price—look no further.
