Yard Drainage Solutions

We offer many types of yard drainage solutions in Annapolis. Our expert team of landscapers determines the solution at the time of consultation. Property and structural damage occur to homes each year due as a result of drainage problems. These problems can be severe if they cause flood damage to the structural foundation. Over time even the most durable concrete deteriorates and cracks and buckles. This can be very expensive to repair.

Flooding is also accompanied by mold. Mold can not only make you sick, but it’s expensive to fix.

In either case, standing water on your property is unsafe and ugly. These things can lower the value of your property. Paradise Landscapes and Hardscapes offers several options for yard drainage solutions in Annapolis.

Hardscapes Help Yard Drainage

It doesn’t matter why you have excess water in your yard. It matters that it is a problem. Our team of expert landscapers knows how to craft the perfect solution to fix these problems. We figure out how to encourage yard drainage in its natural environment.

We have the expertise and knowledge to figure out what type of stone paver solution you might need. But, maybe you don’t need stoner pavers. Gravel, for instance, may work better to fix your problem. Whatever the solution, we will get the water going away from your home, not towards it.

Retaining walls are excellent hardscape designs for landscape drainage solutions. Does your property have a slope that is the cause of rushing water into your yard? Then most likely a retaining wall will be a better solution for your property. Retaining walls also help reduce and prevent sediment buildup and soil erosion. These two factors create unstable moisture levels around the foundation of your home. When this happens, the bottom can become heavy which leads to cracks.

French Drains

French drains work below the ground and your home’s perimeter. These help to prevent both surface water and groundwater pooling.

How are French drains installed? First, we excavate a trench around the outside area of your home. Then we insert a pipe containing a series of holes into the ground. This enables water to drain through it and away from the foundation. As a result, this controls the amount of water on your property. The trench gets covered with sod, grass seed usually so the water filters through.

French drains help when the gutter systems around your property are ineffective. You know this because they spew buckets of water out near the foundation. As a result, this surge of water creates structural damage and garden problems.

Channel Drains

Is your driveway a small river after or during a storm? Since pavement doesn’t soak up water, it will find a way down in whatever direction the slope is. This will cause a stagnant backup of water.

Channel drains, also known as trench drains can help. These get installed in the garage areas to prevent water from entering.

How are Channel Drains installed? One of our drainage solution experts will dig a long thin trench into the driveway area in front of the garage.

Then we insert a curved shaped channel into the trench. Next, we will cover it with a metal grate. This allows water to enter through the drain and then exit out the side of the driveway.

The metal grate also helps prevent the drain from becoming clogged with debris.

Downspouts

Downspouts are one of the simplest types of yard drains to prevent water from flooding your yard.

Gutters enable roof water to drain down through them. An extended downspout helps divert the water away from your home. The downspout directs up to 6 feet away from the house towards the grass or garden. Gutters need cleaning so they stay clean and clog-free. It’s important to make sure you keep your gutter system clean and debris free.

Do you have a broken underground sprinkler? These are often big flooding problems.

Sprinklers become damaged for a variety of reasons. Normal wear and tear can cause pipes to crack. A broken pipe can cause flooding deep into the ground as well as backup problems in the pipe. This results in puddles around your yard on a yearly basis.

Sprinkler heads break and cause leakage issues. This is often a big problem of puddles in your yard too. Team Paradise can identify the cause of your drainage problems.
