What recent reviews say

Kyle's crew delivers drainage fixes that work reliably, with fast turnarounds and crews who respect your property and listen to your input. The business has strong roots in French drains and retaining walls, though some customers note the core strength is drainage rather than broader landscaping.

Most praise centers on fair pricing, prompt communication, and installation quality that lasts. One long-standing issue: follow-up contact after project completion can be slow, and landscaping projects receive less consistent praise than drainage work.

Praised for
  • honest pricing and no upsell
  • fast completion and efficiency
  • skilled crew and craftsmanship
  • respectful and professional staff
  • effective drainage solutions
Watch-outs
  • difficult to reach for follow-up service
  • landscaping work rated lower than drainage
punctualreliablefair-pricingskilled-crewattention-to-detailresponsivefriendly-staffon-budget
Best for: Homeowners needing French drains, retaining walls, or foundation drainage in Austin.
Think twice if: Expect slower follow-up contact after project finish. Drainage is their core strength; broader landscaping projects may not deliver the same results.

Strengths

  • Drainage expertise with multi-decade track record
  • Honest pricing and avoids unnecessary upsell
  • Fast project completion with skilled crews
  • Honest, fair owner (Kyle) who sets the company tone

Worth knowing

  • Kyle (owner) known for fair dealing and setting company culture
  • Matt and Eddie named as crew leads with strong customer feedback
  • 4-person crews completed complex jobs (flagstone aprons, stairs, walls) in 2-3 days
  • One customer reported artificial turf installation had follow-up issues (weeds through turf) with poor responsiveness
  • Restored 13-year-old French drain system and improved its appearance

Common questions

Can ADLD fix a flooded foundation or soggy backyard?
Yes. French drain systems and gravel paths installed by them have prevented recurring marsh-like conditions and foundation water damage for multiple customers, including after heavy rainfall.
How long does a typical project take?
A four-person crew completed complex multi-day jobs (flagstone aprons, stairs, walls) in 2-3 days; one customer saw work finished by Wednesday afternoon when a 5-day timeline was expected.
Will they try to sell me work I don't need?
No. One customer explicitly noted they "proposed a straightforward solution to my drainage problem instead of trying to upsell unnecessary work like other companies did."
