Landscaping your dream outdoor space is exciting. Picture it now, the warm summer days with your kids running around playing, the outdoor kitchen cooking something delicious. The cool, breezy days when you have the fire pit going. Friends and family gathered around, making s’mores and telling campfire stories. It’s great to plan a landscape to create your dream outdoor space, but one of the most important components is drainage. Without proper drainage, your grand landscape design, will soon be oversaturated and practically un-usable.
Danger of not having good drainage
Although drainage isn’t as beautiful as paver walkway lined with beautiful trees and flooding flowers, it is just as, if not more, important to make any landscape function. In fact, without proper drainage, all of the funds spent on beautifying the landscape could be wasted when it erodes or drowns due to improper drainage.
As an Atlanta area resident, you know the quantity of rain we receive each year. Most current landscaping designs are not designed with great drainage to protect their property from the excess rain and saturation.
Poor drainage causes erosion
Above all, the greatest danger of not having good drainage incorporated in your landscaping design is the risk of erosion. Throughout the year, rainfall will cause soil runoff in the yard. Subsequently this will carry your brand new landscaping, like mulch, etc. away with it. It would not be beneficial to spend your money on a beautiful landscape without drainage only to have to tear it up later to add drainage. It is best to incorporate drainage into your landscaping needs from the start.
Poor drainage causes foundation issues
In addition to poor drainage causing erosion, you risk damage to your foundation. This is a scary one. Not only will damage to your foundation make for some larger issues inside and out, it will also decrease your property value significantly making it much harder to resell when and if the time comes. Improper drainage is an easy fix, especially when overhauling your landscaping. With over 15 years of experience, Venyscapes is confident in the landscaping designs we create with proper drainage in mind.
Incorporating drainage into your new or existing landscaping
If improper drainage is not causing unwanted erosion and runoff, it can still ruin property by collecting in soil and creating standing water puddles. Stop future issues from having with preventative maintenance of incorporating drainage into your new or existing landscaping. Good drainage isn’t as pretty, but it will be sure to keep all your beautiful landscaping looking great for years to come. Best of all, Venyscapes knows drainage and can incorporate seamless drainage systems with your landscape.
They take pride in what they do and it shows
Absolutely Amazing!! Of the 4 companies we received quotes from they were the only ones who offered additional suggestions that we did not ask for, nor did they upcharge us, to wholistically address the drainage issues. Carlos was patient and informative as he explained the process to my mother. The gentlemen who did the work, were fantastic. You could not tell that they had just dug under the ground and connected pipes in our yard. They cut the grass and then reinstalled it meticulously. No dirt, mud or straw all over the place. Everything placed back exactly as it was before. No visible pipes showing on the lawn. They take pride in what they do and it shows.
