Exterior Drainage & Grading Solutions

Our exterior drainage services in Boxford are designed to move water away from your home efficiently and permanently. We assess how water flows across your property, identify problem areas, and implement drainage and grading solutions that protect both the structure and landscape.

Yard Grading & Drainage Slope Correction

Improper grading is one of the most common causes of drainage problems. We regrade yards in Boxford to create positive drainage, ensuring water flows away from foundations, patios, and walkways instead of collecting where it causes damage.

French Drains, Surface Drains & Water Diversion

When grading alone isn’t enough, we install exterior drainage systems such as French drains, surface drains, and water diversion channels. These systems capture and redirect excess water safely away from your property.

Downspout Drainage & Runoff Control

Roof runoff is a major contributor to foundation moisture. We extend and tie downspouts into proper drainage paths to prevent water from dumping near the home and saturating surrounding soil.

Erosion Control & Site Preparation

Water erosion can undermine soil stability and damage landscaping. Our exterior drainage work in Boxford includes erosion control and site preparation to protect slopes, walkways, and outdoor structures.

We are very pleased with the patio installed by Goodwood General Construction. Henry was a straight shooter from the start and completed the job in line with the estimated cost & time frame. His crew worked tirelessly throughout the 3 days of installation. They left the job site very clean and even planted grass around the patio which I wasn't expecting. After a tough winter with freeze & thaw cycles the patio held firm. I would highly recommend.

Needed Lally columns to replace old wooden supports. I couldn't have been more satisfied with Goodwood's work and professionalism. I highly recommend them and would have them back if/when the need arises for other projects.

My house needed a new retaining wall, where an old one was already collapsing. It was a complex job, involving a long section of the wall along the road and a section along the sloping driveway. Henry and Goodwood Construction did an excellent job, both in removing the remains of the old wall and building a new one. Henry came promptly to evaluate the project and give a detailed explanation of the required work and a written estimate. Within a couple of weeks they started the work, bringing lots of heavy machinery for the tasks. The new retaining wall was built meticulously, with all the required arrangements for proper water drainage. And they have replanted the plants along the wall that were in the way of the construction. During the project, Henry was always reachable to accommodate our desires for the new construction. I am happy with the new wall and the excellent work that was done, and I heartily recommend Henry and his company for construction works big and small that you require.

I recently hired Goodwood General Construction to install a new concrete slab in my backyard, and I couldn’t be happier with the results. Henry and his team were professional, on time, and clearly knew what they were doing. They took the time to explain the process, answered all my questions, and kept everything clean and organized throughout the project. The slab came out perfectly—solid, level, and exactly how I envisioned it. It’s rare to find contractors who care this much about quality and customer satisfaction. Highly recommend!

Henry and his team were excellent to work. They solved a problem we had with flooding in our back yard by installing channel drains and dry well. They knew what they were doing, finished the job in a timely manner and did a great job restoring the yard afterwards. Henry was always available for questions and was even willing to stop by after the job was completed to show us how to maintain the channel drains. Goodwood Construction is a great company to work with and I highly recommend them. Lena Crowley Peabody, MA
