💧 DRAINAGE PROBLEMS DON’T FIX THEMSELVES — THEY USUALLY GET WORSE.
Water sitting around your home can cause a lot more damage than just a soggy yard.
At Shawn’s Landscape & Design, we don’t just throw a pipe in the ground and hope for the best. We look at where the water is coming from, how your property is graded, and where that water needs to go.
Some of the biggest drainage problems we see come from:
💧 Downspouts dumping beside the foundation instead of being buried and carried safely away from the home.
📐 Improper grading where the yard actually slopes toward the house instead of away from it.
🌧️ Standing water and soggy areas that stay wet long after the rain stops.
🏠 Water collecting around foundations, crawl spaces, basements, patios, and retaining walls.
🚿 Sump pump discharge being released too close to the house or into an area that can’t handle the additional water.
🌊 Runoff from neighboring properties or hillsides flowing directly through your yard.
🕳️ Failed or clogged underground drainage that isn’t moving water where it’s supposed to.
Depending on the property, the solution could include buried downspouts, Schedule 40 PVC, French drains, catch basins, swales, sump discharge extensions, dry wells, or correcting the grade around the home.
The key is figuring out the actual cause before spending money on the solution.
We have a dedicated drainage crew with the equipment and experience to diagnose drainage problems and build a system designed specifically for your property.
If you’ve got standing water, muddy areas, foundation concerns, overflowing downspouts, washouts, or water that just doesn’t seem to have anywhere to go, give us a call.
📍 Serving Lebanon, Mason, Springboro, Waynesville, Morrow and surrounding areas.
