Essentially the entire town postdates 2005, and one drainage plan goes to two different desks.
Whitestown is the newest place we work by a wide margin. Essentially its entire built environment postdates 2005, which means there is very little to repair and a great deal to build. New construction pads, utility trenching, storm sewer tie-ins and the drainage corrections that surface a year or two after a subdivision is finished and the ground has settled are the bulk of what a contractor does here.
The permitting is genuinely unusual and worth knowing before you plan a project. Whitestown was designated an MS4 in 2021 but does not appear in IDEM's construction-program table, and the town says so itself: submit stormwater pollution prevention plans to the Boone County Surveyor's office, and final approvals are issued by Whitestown's engineering department. That is two desks for one plan, and it is the kind of thing that adds weeks if nobody accounts for it.
Because the ground is new, the failures here are new-ground failures. Backfill that was compacted in a hurry and has since settled. A swale that works until a fence and a patio go in. Downspouts discharging onto ground that has dropped an inch since the house was finished. None of that is dramatic, and all of it puts water where the plan said it would not be.
Upper White basin.
Recently developed till plain. Most of the profile has been cut, filled and graded within the last twenty years.
Essentially the entire built environment postdates 2005, one of the fastest growth rates in Indiana.
A permitted MS4 since 2021, but not in IDEM's construction-program table. Plans go to the Boone County Surveyor, final approval comes from Whitestown engineering.
We do all nine services everywhere we work. These are the ones the ground in Whitestown asks for first.
Site clearing, grading, building pads and trenching for residential, commercial and new construction.
See the work →Water service, sewer repair and replacement, storm sewer and directional boring, permitted and inspected.
See the work →Our specialty. We find where the water is actually coming from, then build the system that moves it away for good.
See the work →Start with a call or a text to (317) 503-6782. Tell us what is going on in your own words. Water pools by the back door. The old driveway has to go. The yard slopes toward the house. You do not need the technical terms and you do not need a plan drawn up. If it is something we handle we will set a time to come look. If it is not, we will tell you that and point you somewhere better if we can.
Casey comes out and looks at the actual site with you. This part matters more in dirt work than in almost any other trade. Two back yards that sound identical on the phone can be completely different once you see the slope, the access, the soil and where the water wants to go. Walking it together means you can point at the problem and we can talk through options on the spot, including options that cost you less than what you had in mind.
After the walkthrough we put the estimate together and email it to you, with the scope of work written out so you can see what is and is not included. It is free and there is no pressure attached. Take your time with it and compare it if you want to. Honest pricing only works if you have room to check it.
Free, in writing, with no obligation to move forward. A deposit reserves your spot on the schedule once you approve it.

Settlement, usually. Ground that was filled and graded during construction continues to consolidate for a few years afterward. An inch of settlement in the wrong place is enough to stop a shallow swale from carrying, and shallow swales are how most new subdivisions are drained.
Both the Boone County Surveyor's office and Whitestown's engineering department. The town directs stormwater pollution prevention plans to the county surveyor, with final approval issued by town engineering. We handle that coordination on permitted work rather than leaving it to you.
Yes. Site clearing, building pad prep, trenching, storm sewer and rough and finish grading are regular commercial and new construction work for us, alongside the residential side.
Yes. Whitestown is in Boone County, one of the four counties we work. We are based in Brownsburg, and Whitestown is regular territory.
There is no honest way to answer that without seeing the property, because the price is driven by where the water is coming from, how far it has to be carried and what it has to cross. The estimate is free, Casey walks it with you, and you get the scope in writing by email.
Tell us what is going on in your own words. You do not need the technical terms, and you do not need a plan drawn up.
