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.

Expert Erosion Control Solutions in Damascus, MD
Soil loss is a real problem for properties in Damascus and across Montgomery County. Heavy rain moves fast on sloped yards, pulling topsoil downhill and leaving bare patches, ruts, and sediment deposits behind. Elevation Landscapes addresses erosion at its source. We assess each yard's slope, soil type, and drainage pattern before recommending a fix. Solutions may include slope stabilization with native plantings, ground cover installation, retaining structures, dry creek beds, or sediment barriers, depending on what your property actually needs. Maryland's clay-heavy soils in the Piedmont region compact easily, which increases runoff risk after storms. That makes site-specific planning critical here. As a locally owned company, we treat every property as its own problem to solve. We do not apply a one-size-fits-all approach. Our goal is to stop active soil loss, protect your yard's structure, and leave the landscape looking clean and stable. If you are seeing bare slopes, muddy runoff, or soil washing toward your foundation, call us.
