If your property has drainage issues, you’ll notice it during and after heavy rainfall. One way we treat this is by installing an outdoor drainage system in your soil. Three main benefits of this include:
1. Outdoor drainage systems are less invasive, time-consuming, and costly than trying to level out your yard. This might just move the water to a different area of the yard instead of away from it. A drain will send water down the path of least resistance into underground pipes and then out into the street drain.
2. Drainage can protect the foundation of your home. Standing water softens the soil over time. This can cause the ground to shift and become uneven underneath the foundation, which could damage it.
3. Lastly, it can help prevent severe lawn issues. Excess water can lead to root rot, soil compaction, water loving weeds, and lawn pests. If you want a healthy, green lawn, you definitely want to get rid of standing water.
There are other benefits as well, such as preventing mosquitos and other bugs that like water.
