A dry well diverts water into an underground well and distributes it back to the soil. Dry wells are especially effective for managing stormwater runoff. They’re also environmentally friendly because they prevent runoff from entering streams and lakes where they could mix with contaminants and cause pollution.
French drains have trenches that hold pipes full of gravel. Water flows through these rock-filled pipes and excretes into the ground. This process diverts the water away from your home. French drains are ideal for retaining walls situated on hillsides or slopes.
For some homes, the best way to prevent drainage problems is by correcting the slope of the land around the property. We can correct lawn grades for Clarendon Hills homes to keep water from flowing toward the foundation and prevent accumulation in low areas.
One way to direct water away from your home is by installing underground corrugated tubes. Not only does this solution prevent water from filling up low areas but it can also channel water to landscaped areas or gardens that require frequent watering.

There are several effective drainage solutions and one of the most common is the French drain. This type of drain can be installed on almost any property and is fairly easy to maintain. Of course, dry wells, corrugated tubes, and lawn grade correction are also good options. When you have a drain problem, you should contact a drainage and landscaping professional to help you determine the best solution for your home.
If you’re installing a French drain it should be between 1.5-2 feet deep and between 9-12 inches wide. This is a general guideline for drain installation and your yard may require different measurements. If you don’t want to
install your own French drain, you can contact drainage experts to do it for you. They’ll ensure the drain is deep enough underground.
The cost for a custom drain solution for your home depends heavily on the type of drain you choose and the extent of the work involved to install it. When considering how much to spend on a drain for your yard, consider the consequences of poor drainage. Breeding mosquitoes, foundation cracks, rot, mildew and mold, and water seepage into your basement — these problems could end up costing even more in repairs than installing a proper drainage system.
A landscape drain is called a catch basin. It collects excess surface water and directs it through a sloped pipe away from the area, similar to how a sewer drain works.
To level your lawn for drainage, start by mowing and dethatching it if needed. Then, dig up the grass in sunken spots. Mix topsoil, sand, and compost together, and use this mixture to fill in the low areas and holes.
To fix a low spot in your yard and help it drain, you can aerate the lawn, fill the low area with soil, or regrade the yard to direct water away. Installing a French drain or creating a rain garden can also help with drainage. You might also consider using permeable pavers or planting wet-tolerant plants in that spot.
When you have drainage problems, it can undermine your plans for a healthy, beautifully landscaped outdoor area. It can cause more problems inside your home later on, too. Don’t wait until the situation is desperate and water damage has ruined your life. Call the experts at Ware Landscaping for a free assessment of your drainage problem.
