Preparing Your Yard For Heavy Rains

Fall is here, don’t let the lower rainfall fool you. Heavy Rains will be here before you know it. Don’t get stuck with a soggy property, keep reading to learn the best way to prepare your yard for heavy rain.

As a Stone Mountain resident myself, every October comes and gives us a break from the rain and we let our guard from protecting our property from heavy rains. Don’t let the month of October fool you. Even with October being the driest month of the year for rainfall in Atlanta area, the heavy rains of late Winter and early Spring will be here before you know it. It is best to prepare your yard for heavy rains before it’s too late. There are several ways you can prepare your landcape to be able to handle those inevitable heavy rains and Venyscapes is here to help.

Improve Your Soil Drainage

Heavy rain is the easiest way to drown your soil. Heavy rainfall can wash away nutrients before they can be absorbed in the lawn. If you do not plan for proper soil drainage then those winter rains will oversaturate the grass and leave you with poor soil conditions and unhealthy grass come Spring. When the water saturates the grass, it loses the nutrients that the lawn needs and will leave it weak and dull. Keep in mind that while too much rain will drown your grass, pesky lawn weeds thrive in wet conditions. Keep your grass healthy, and weeds at bay by getting a free consultation at how to improve your soil drainage.

Clean or Install Gutters and Downspout Drain Lines

With the amount of rainfall that Atlanta sees year after year, especially in late Winter and early Spring, Gutters and downspout drain lines are a must. If you already have a good set of Gutters and downspout drain lines that are still in excellent working condition take this dry month with low rainfall to get them cleaned really good and ready for the heavy rains to come. You won’t want to be climbing on a ladder in heavy rainfall trying to clean your gutters. If you don’t already have a gutter or downspout drain lines system, schedule a free consultation today to see how our custom gutter systems can help protect your property from flooding.

Increase Drainage by Adding a Dry Creek Bed

If you have a particularly large area that just never seems to be try, consider looking into a drainage system such as a dry creek bed. Dry Creek beds are not only functional and provide excellent drainage, but they can also add a creative, custom aesthetic look to your landscaping. Dry Creek Beds are very common in the Atlanta area because of the heavy rainfall we receive. Venyscapes has over 15 years of experience in Landscaping and Drainage and can create a beautiful, custom look with excellent drainage capabilities. Contact us today to see if a Dry Creek Bed is the best drainage solution for your property in preparation for the upcoming heavy rains.

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.
