We hired Elevation Landscaping to fix a water issue from a poorly done addition grading job. They came quickly, redirected water away from the house and ended up doing landscaping around the whole house. My house went from a complete disaster to an enjoyable place for family and friends. We will be hiring them for a “phase 2” landscaping job on our property.
Drainage Assessment and Design in Damascus, MD
Elevation Landscapes provides drainage assessment and design for homeowners across Damascus, MD and surrounding areas.
Expert Drainage Assessment and Design in Damascus, MD
Standing water, soggy lawn patches, and water pooling near your foundation are common problems for Damascus, MD homeowners. The heavy clay soil found throughout Montgomery County absorbs water slowly, which means runoff has nowhere to go after a hard rain. A proper drainage assessment finds exactly where water is collecting and why. At Elevation Landscapes, we walk your property, read the slope, study the soil, and map how water moves across your yard. From that on-site evaluation, we build a drainage design specific to your land, not a one-size-fits-all fix. The design accounts for your yard's grade, existing landscaping, and the flow paths water takes during heavy rainfall. That plan becomes the blueprint for any drainage work that follows. As a locally owned company, we give every Damascus property our personal attention from the first site visit through the final design. If you are seeing water problems on your property, contact Elevation Landscapes to schedule your drainage assessment.
