A poorly drained lawn can cause a multitude of problems, including damage to the grass, standing water, and even damage to the foundation of your home. To avoid these issues, adding drainage solutions to your lawn is crucial. There are different types of drainage solutions to choose from, including French drains, dry wells, catch basins, grading, and sump pumps. Each of these options has its benefits and drawbacks, depending on the unique characteristics of your property.

Before adding drainage solutions to your lawn, it's essential to understand the underlying causes of poor drainage. In some cases, simply regrading the lawn can solve the problem. However, in other cases, more complex solutions, such as French drains or dry wells, may be required.

When designing a drainage system, it's important to consider the unique characteristics of your property. For example, if you live on a hill, you may need to install retaining walls to prevent erosion. The experts at O'Hara Outdoors will help you create the best solution for your drainage needs.
