Standing water in the yard-Drainage Problem

Is there water pooling in your yard that you can’t seem to get rid of? Do you have a drainage issue and no idea where to begin fixing it?

Standing water in your yard can be a real problem. Beyond being unsightly, excess water can cause plants and grass to become waterlogged and not grow properly. It can lead to problems with your home’s foundation. A soggy lawn can be a breeding ground for mosquitoes and other pests, and often contributes to a general odor.

Installing a French Drain is a great way to drain yard standing water. It’s a gravel-filled trench, sometimes with a perforated pipe, strategically placed to redirect water away from where you don’t want it. Imagine it as a secret underground passage for water, leading it away from your precious green space.

When you have your French Drain installed by Love Irrigation, you can expect a quick, clean, and professional experience. Our experienced landscapers will find the lowest-lying problem areas in your yard and decide on a suitable exit point through which to drain the problematic standing water.

Next, we will carefully dig a 12-24″ trench, while protecting the surrounding soil and any greenery. Once the trench is suitably sized and sloped for the amount of water it is required to handle, we fill it in layers of permeable material, adding a perforated pipe if the situation calls for it. This simple drainage system is highly effective in preventing pooling water.

Love Irrigation takes pride in not only our work, but our customer’s satisfaction. We strive to make sure our customers are not left to clean up our mess and can ensure that you will not come home to a finished product that leaves your yard looking patchy or unkept:
