Water issues in your yard? You’re not alone. But the right landscaping can solve the problem instead of adding to it. Here are 6 smart solutions:
1. Proper Grading
Ensure your yard slopes away from the house—it’s the first defense against pooling water.
2. French Drains
Underground piping that quietly moves excess water out of trouble zones.
3. Rain Gardens
These beautiful, plant-filled areas are designed to soak up runoff naturally.
4. Permeable Pavers
Let water pass through your driveway or patio instead of flooding your lawn.
5. Dry Creek Beds
They look like a design feature, but they work hard during heavy rain to channel water.
6. Gutter & Downspout Management
Direct rainwater where it belongs—away from your home’s foundation.
