# Free Drainage Assessment & Estimates in Kansas City

> Premier Gutters KC - NDS-certified drainage contractor, Kansas City metro. (816) 469-9563.

**What you get:** A walk of the whole property, a plain-English diagnosis of where the water actually comes from, and a written drainage estimate at published prices - usually within 24-72 hours. Free, no obligation. If a simpler fix would solve it (a regrade, or an above-ground downspout extension at $80-$180 per drop), the estimate says so.

## What the assessment covers
1. Where the water starts - every gutter and downspout discharge point (a gutter & drainage evaluation in one visit)
2. Where it goes - grading and mapped low spots
3. What the ground is doing - KC clay and topsoil depth
4. What you already have - existing buried lines are flow-tested; a clogged line that a pressure flush would restore gets a repair recommendation, not a rebuild
5. Where the water can go - daylight, pop-up emitter, dry well, or catch basin (never the sanitary sewer, never a neighbor's yard)
6. Could something simpler fix it? If yes, that's the recommendation.

## Written estimate at published prices
- French drains: $25-$60/LF
- Buried downspouts: $300-$700 per line
- Catch basins: $350-$750
- Dry wells: $800-$2,200
- Sump discharge lines: $300-$700
- Options priced side by side (corrugated vs PVC), risk flags named up front
- Trenches backfilled and tamped (no landscaping-restoration claims); buried lines diagnosed by flow-testing, not camera theater
