Landscape Drainage Solutions

Landscape drainage is a critical part of any landscaping project. Without proper drainage, water can pool on your lawn or in your planting beds, causing damage to your plants and creating a breeding ground for mosquitoes and other pests. There are a number of ways to improve the drainage in your landscape, from installing French drains to grading your soil. With a little planning and some help from a landscape professional, you can ensure that your landscape will have proper drainage and be able to withstand the heaviest rains. Here are a few drainage solutions that may be right for your landscape:

French Drain. A French drain is a drain that is installed underground to remove excess water from an area. French drains are often used in yards and gardens to keep the soil from becoming too saturated and preventing plants from growing.
Gutter Downspout Drain. The gutter downspout drain is an important part of the rain gutter system. It is a pipe that carries rainwater from the gutter, away from the house to the ground or to a drain.
Channel Drain. A channel drain is a type of drainage system that is typically used in areas where there is a lot of runoff. Channel drains are designed to collect and funnel water away from areas where it can cause problems, such as flooding or soil erosion.

There are many factors to consider when it comes to landscape drainage. The type of soil, the slope of the land, and the amount of rainfall are all important factors. A properly functioning drainage system is essential to preventing water damage to your home. At Jernigan Landscaping, we have the right drainage solutions for your landscape.
