Proper drainage is an essential part of your landscape design plan. Poor drainage can lead to major structural damage on the inside of your home and ruin the gorgeous landscaping on the exterior. Whether you are taking advantage of our comprehensive landscaping services or installing a new deck, we can perform landscape drainage services on your property to ensure that water does not ruin your yard.
Landscape Drainage Prevents Water Damage
A graded landscape will prevent water pooling and improve water drainage. When land is uneven, proper water drainage isn’t possible during heavy rainfall. Instead of water flowing away from your house, it will flow towards it. If this water accumulates around the property’s foundation, it can create cracks or, even worse, cause flooding. Our team can reshape the surface angle, which aids in channeling water away from your home when it rains and storms.
Proper Drainage Protects Your Plants
In addition to protecting your home, landscape drainage prevents damage to your landscape and makes your plants healthier. Handling water drainage issues improves plant health. Water pools in a specific area, like the bottom of a hill, when it rains. That water pooling leads to grass and plants becoming overwatered and effectively drowning. Plus, overwatered landscapes tend to attract mosquitos and other pests.
Landscape Drainage Solutions in Woodstock, MD
At Carroll Landscape, we are familiar with a wide variety of drainage solutions that are proven and efficient. Our most popular landscape drainage solutions include:
- Grass channel swales: Swales are designed as part of your lawn to subtly direct water away from your home with careful grading. Grass Channel Swales do not need much space or incline to be effective, so they work well for many yards.
- Dry Wells: Dry wells are eco-friendly and remove excess water by redirecting it to an underground well. Over time, the water will leave the well and filter into the groundwater tables.
- French Drains: French drains are a time-tested solution for various drainage woes. French drains can be designed to complement many different landscapes and direct excess water into a drain instead of distributing it throughout your property.
