Drainage Solutions Ware Landscaping Provides
- French drains: A French drain is a trench filled with gravel or rock that redirects water away from low-lying areas in the yard.
- Dry wells: A dry well is an underground structure that collects and disperses water. It is a good solution for areas that have poor soil permeability and high water tables.
- Rain gardens: Rain gardens are shallow depressions that are planted with water-loving plants. They can be used to capture and filter runoff from roofs, driveways, and other impervious surfaces.
- Sump pumps: A sump pump is a pump that is installed in a basement or low-lying area to pump out water. They are a good solution for homes that are prone to flooding.
- Grading and re-landscaping: Sometimes, simply regrading the yard and re-landscaping with plants and mulch can help to improve drainage.
