Stop Runoff Before It Damages Your Yard
Standing water and poor drainage can quietly damage your yard and foundation.
A dry creek bed is a smart, natural-looking way to move water where it needs to go, without pipes or constant maintenance.
At All Time Sprinkler & Drainage, we design and install custom dry creek bed drain systems that control runoff, prevent erosion, and blend into your landscape.
It’s drainage that works hard during storms and looks great the rest of the year.
How Our Dry Creek Bed Installation Works
1. On-Site Evaluation
We walk the property and figure out what’s actually happening during rainfall: where water collects, where it accelerates, and where it needs to end up. We also check slope, soil conditions, and any problem areas near the home.
2. Custom Design + Material Plan
Dry creek beds aren’t “one size fits all.” We map out a route that fits your landscape and handles the volume of water you’re dealing with. That includes:
- Channel width and depth
- Rock size and layering
- Edging and shape (natural or more defined)
- Where the water will discharge (and how we’ll prevent washout)
3. Clean, Long-Term Installation
We excavate, shape the channel, install stabilization where needed, and build the creek bed with the right base materials so it doesn’t shift every storm.

Common Dry Creek Bed Add-Ons
Depending on the property, we may recommend upgrades that make the system work even better:
Catch basins / surface inlets to capture runoff faster
Underground piping in sections where open channel isn’t ideal
Pop-up emitters for controlled discharge
Rock splash pads at downspouts and exits
Dry Creek Bed Installation FAQs
How does a dry creek bed work?
It creates a defined path for runoff to follow during storms. The rock slows the water down, reduces erosion, and directs it away from problem areas.
Does a dry creek bed require maintenance?
Very little. Most homeowners just remove leaves or debris after heavy rain. The rock and base materials are designed to stay in place.
Can a dry creek bed help protect my foundation?
Yes. When properly designed, it intercepts runoff and moves it away from the home instead of letting water collect near the slab or crawl space.
Can gutters or downspouts connect to a dry creek bed?
Often, yes. We can route downspout discharge into the creek bed so rainwater doesn’t overwhelm one area of the yard.
How much does dry creek bed installation cost in Tyler, TX?
Pricing depends on length, excavation needs, materials, and how complex the drainage issue is. An on-site evaluation is the best way to get an accurate quote.
