Due
to the consistency of the soil in much of the
Houston area and the seemingly ever-present rain
and
runoff - many homes and businesses have drainage
problems in our area.
Although less damaging than house flooding,
any flooding and swampiness in your yard is just
as annoying
and it is also detrimental to the health of your
lawn, flowers and trees. Plus, submerged patios
and
walks along with possible fungal death in your
trees and plants can render your yard a wasteland.
The remedy for this common Houston area situation
is to install a curtain drain system of perforated
PVC plastic pipe imbedded in drainage rock. This
system (also commonly referred to as French drains
or California drains) is installed in trenches
across the slope of your yare. The yard drainage
system is then connected so that excess water
is drained away from your yard instead of standing
there for days on end.
J.D.M. Landscaping can design and install a
drainage system which will meet your specific
needs - and give you back the use for your yard
area as soon as the rain had ended. We also handle
checking with the utility companies so that we
don't cut you cable, electric or gas lines -
something less competent installers often forget
to do.
So - if you have a yard that the area birds
congregate in when it becomes a lake after a
hard rain - call J.D.M. Landscaping. We can put
in a bird bath and still give you back your yard!
