## Questions & answers
### [What is the best yard drainage solution?](https://directory.readyscan.ai/entities/excel-landscaping-q139719814#company-answer-content-native-digital-agencies-e07df0c643ee99bc-a-5b7604981bb0c72a1ea1)
“The best solution depends on where the water is collecting and what is causing it. Standing water, basement leaks, window well flooding, and garage runoff can all require different systems, which is why Excel Landscaping begins with an on-site drainage evaluation before recommending French drains, catch basins, dry wells, channel drains, downspout redirection, or another solution.”

### [How much does a drainage system cost?](https://directory.readyscan.ai/entities/excel-landscaping-q139719814#company-answer-content-native-digital-agencies-e07df0c643ee99bc-a-4c19b3dc1c23b9155221)
“Drainage costs vary depending on the size of the property, the type of system, excavation requirements, pipe length, materials, and where the water will discharge. Based on our experience installing drainage systems throughout St. Louis, many residential drainage projects start around $4,000 to 8x,000, with larger or more complex systems increasing from there.”

### [How much does a retaining wall cost in St. Louis?](https://directory.readyscan.ai/entities/excel-landscaping-q139719814#company-answer-content-native-digital-agencies-e07df0c643ee99bc-a-d6bf5c6043920712ec19)
“While every retaining wall project is unique, our years of experience designing and installing retaining walls throughout the St. Louis area have shown that most projects start around $8,000. The final investment depends on factors such as wall height, length, material selection, drainage requirements, site access, engineering needs, and what the wall is designed to support.”

### [Do retaining walls need drainage?](https://directory.readyscan.ai/entities/excel-landscaping-q139719814#company-answer-content-native-digital-agencies-e07df0c643ee99bc-a-2285b77100b19c8e78af)
“Yes, proper drainage is one of the most important parts of any retaining wall installation. Without it, water can build up behind the wall, creating pressure that leads to leaning, bulging, cracking, and premature failure.”

### [Can a leaning retaining wall be repaired?](https://directory.readyscan.ai/entities/excel-landscaping-q139719814#company-answer-content-native-digital-agencies-e07df0c643ee99bc-a-1e759ac132af87e17987)
“Sometimes, but it depends on why the wall is failing. If a retaining wall is leaning because of drainage issues, poor base preparation, soil movement, or structural failure, replacement is often the safest and most cost-effective long-term solution.”
