Hardscape guide
Exterior work changes how water moves. Drainage should be reviewed before adding patios, walls, walkways, concrete or landscape features.
Consider roof runoff, downspouts, slopes, hard surfaces, low points and where water ultimately leaves the area.
Concrete and pavers shed water faster than soil. The layout must provide a suitable direction and outlet.
Retaining walls, borders and raised beds should not block drainage or direct water toward the building.
Questions
Straight answers help clients decide what to do next.
Yes. They can show flow direction, ponding and overflow that may not be visible when the site is dry.
No. A drain needs a suitable outlet, grade and maintenance. Surface grading may still be required.
Discharge should be planned so water does not create ponding, erosion or building exposure.
