Standing Water & Playa-Edge Assessment in Midland, TX
Find the contributing area, low point, and overflow path before a wet yard becomes a larger grading problem.
A wet spot near a fence or back corner may collect roof runoff, street flow, or water from a shallow basin. We walk the parcel after a storm when conditions allow, then use grade clues, soil cuts, paving edges, and neighboring elevations to trace the source. We mark where water gathers, where it should leave, and where a property line changes the available route.
Midland County contains closed playa basins that can fill and dry through evaporation and infiltration. Filling a low place or blocking an overflow path can move water toward a house, alley, or adjacent lot. Our scope identifies the basin edge, the maintenance access, and any review needed before someone adds soil or a retaining feature.
