Valrico’s Drainage and Waterproofing Specialists
A drainage contractor in Valrico is working on the high ground of Hillsborough County. The community is an unincorporated place of about 37,895 people across 14.22 square miles, sitting at 102 feet of elevation with only 0.42 square miles of water inside it. That is why drainage work here is rarely a fight with a high water table. Elevation means water moves, and water that moves has to arrive somewhere.
State Road 60 runs through Valrico, 14 miles east of Tampa and 10 miles southwest of Plant City, with Brandon to the west, Bloomingdale to the southwest and FishHawk to the south. Across the 33594 to 33596 ZIP codes the lots have real fall in them, which sounds like an advantage right up until you are standing on the receiving end of it. Runoff comes down a slope, follows the edge of a driveway, stacks up against a fence line, or turns and runs the length of a foundation. The property that floods is often not the property generating the water.
That makes grading and interception the job here, rather than pumping water out of saturated ground. A French drain placed partway up the slope takes the flow out of the path before it ever reaches the slab, while yard drainage work at the low corner gives whatever is already down there a way out. Andriy Garanin is the owner and lead installer and he is on every job, not a sales rep and not a subcontractor, bringing 8+ years of Florida drainage experience and 20+ years of construction and remodeling. Valrico sits alongside Brandon, Riverview and Plant City in our east Hillsborough service area.
Common Drainage Problems in Valrico
- Runoff arriving across the property from higher ground above it
- Water tracking along the edge of a sloped driveway toward the garage
- Surface flow turning at the foundation instead of passing the house
- One low corner of the lot collecting everything and holding it
- Erosion and scour where flow concentrates into a single path downhill
- Roof water released at a corner and joining runoff already crossing the yard
Andriy will walk your Valrico lot with you and show you where the water is coming from, at no cost.

Yard Drainage
Grading and collection for the Valrico yards where water coming off the high side of the lot runs out of fall and stalls along the back fence line.
Yard Drainage →
French Drain Installation
An intercepting line set partway up a Valrico slope catches the flow above the house, which beats dealing with the same water once it is already against the slab.

Channel Drain Installation
A Valrico driveway on a grade feeds water straight at the garage, so a channel drain across the apron cuts the flow off at the top of the slab.

Downspout Drainage
On a sloped Valrico lot, roof water dropped at the corner of the house only joins the runoff already crossing the yard, so it gets piped to the low side instead.
