How We Diagnose & Solve Drainage Issues
Every drainage challenge starts with a site visit. Our team evaluates slope direction, soil conditions, water collection points, and runoff patterns before recommending a solution. We’ll also consider how your existing landscaping impacts water flow—and if desired, we can incorporate landscape upgrades into the plan.
You’ll get a straightforward explanation of the issue, the proposed fix, and a plan that fits your property and budget.
The Value of Dry Creek Beds
Dry creek beds are one of the most popular drainage features we install—and for good reason. These low-maintenance, rock-lined beds mimic natural streambeds and help move water during heavy rains.
They’re especially effective for:
- Managing slope runoff
- Redirecting water through planting beds
- Breaking up flat, low-lying areas prone to pooling
Optional Add-Ons or Related Services
Some homeowners use drainage work as a jumping-off point for broader improvements. If your garden beds are already disrupted—or you’ve wanted to fix them for a while—we can pair your project with:
- Garden bed renovations
- Plantings that thrive in wet or dry conditions
- Decorative stone or mulch installation
We’ll help you make the most of the work being done.
