What county is Van Alstyne in for permit purposes?
Van Alstyne is partially in Grayson County and partially in Collin County. The city itself straddles the county line. For residential drainage work in city limits, the City of Van Alstyne handles permits. For unincorporated properties, the relevant county applies. We verify jurisdiction for each job before starting.
How far in advance should I schedule drainage work in Van Alstyne?
We serve Van Alstyne as part of our US-75 corridor route. For residential jobs in Van Alstyne, we can typically schedule within 1 to 2 weeks outside of peak spring season. During March through May, 2 to 3 weeks is more typical. Call us to check current availability.
Do you install French drains on rural acreage around Van Alstyne?
Yes. Van Alstyne has a mix of residential and rural properties, and French drains on acreage often involve longer trench runs and outlet routing to natural low points or dry creek beds. We assess each rural property individually because the drainage solutions differ from typical residential lot work.
