# Dry Well Installation

TL;DR

Dry wells for KC metro lots with no discharge point: chamber or gravel systems sized to your roof area and Kansas City clay, wrapped in filter fabric, with an overflow path. $800–$2,200 installed. Honest advice first — when your lot has any downhill exit, discharge beats infiltration in clay, and we'll tell you so.

## The honest framework (KC clay)

1. Daylight available? Run a buried line downhill — it never fills up and usually costs less.
2. Curb line reachable? Pop-up emitter at the front low line.
3. Neither? A dry well earns its place — oversized for clay, soil-checked first.
4. Every well gets an overflow route so a 100-year storm surfaces harmlessly.

## What's included

- Soil check before selling storage
- Sizing from actual roof area against clay absorption rates
- Chamber-type (NDS Flo-Well style) or gravel dry wells wrapped in woven filter fabric
- Overflow route on every well
- Photos of the excavation and chamber before backfill
- Written 10-year workmanship warranty

## Pricing

- Dry well (10–20 cu ft): **$800–$2,200 installed**
- If a discharge route exists, we quote that cheaper option first
