Wisconsin Rapids sits along the Wisconsin River in Wood County, an area shaped by paper mill industry history and, further out, the cranberry marshes this part of the state is known for — both of which bring distinct excavation and drainage needs.

Local Notes
Properties near the river and surrounding low-lying ground in this area often deal with a higher water table than what we see farther from the water, which affects everything from basement drain tile design to how deep a foundation excavation can safely go. Wood County's agricultural land, including ground near the region's cranberry marshes, also means ditching and field drainage work come up regularly for us out this way.

Common Questions
Does being near the Wisconsin River affect drainage work on my property?
