Grading & Swales
The Problem
Flooded lawn, pooling water on your driveway, puddles, saturated garden beds, etc.
The Reason it’s Happening
Flooding and pooling is usually caused by improper landscape grading or inadequate drainage systems.
The Fix
We will install swales and use our knowledge of grading corrections to resolve this mess.
- What is a swale?
A swale is a low, shallow channel with gently sloping sides. It can be either natural landforms or man-made and is designed to manage water runoff and reduce stormwater pollution.
- What is grading?
Property grading is a way to structure (or restructure) land so that water drains in the proper direction—away from your home and foundation.
The End Result
Proper grading corrections and swale installations will redirect stormwater away from your property so you end up with a permanent drainage solution. Our custom solutions will help reduce ground saturation and eliminate pooling water and property flooding around your home.
