Lawns, landscape plants, and gardens need water, so why would anyone need to worry about drainage? Actually, home and business owners do need to worry about their lawns and landscapes getting too much water. Plant roots can actually drown if they don’t receive plenty of oxygen. Saturated soil leaves no room for oxygen. Excess water leads to root rot, moss growth, and pest infestations that may eventually impact your home or commercial building.
Water that constantly sits near your building’s foundation will also create a huge and expensive problem due to cracks, deterioration, leaks, and foundational damage. If you don’t have a drainage system in place or think your existing system is not working properly, call Andy’s Sprinkler, Drainage, and Lighting for a professional assessment of drainage conditions affecting your lawn and landscape.
