Experienced Landscaping in Canonsburg, PA 15317 - Boehm Landscaping

The most effective solution depends on the source and severity of the problem. For many homes in our area, a combination of proper grading to slope water away from the house and the installation of a French drain system is highly effective. A French drain uses a perforated pipe surrounded by gravel to collect and redirect subsurface water. We start with a detailed site assessment to diagnose your specific issue and recommend a tailored, long-lasting solution.

Common signs include persistent puddles that take more than a day to dry after rain, soggy or spongy areas in your lawn, water pooling near your home's foundation, or erosion in your landscape beds. If you notice moss thriving in sunny areas or your grass is thinning in consistently wet spots, these are also strong indicators. It's best to address these issues early, as standing water can harm plant roots, attract pests, and lead to more costly foundation repairs.

Our goal is to solve the water issue with minimal disruption. While some excavation is necessary for installing drains or regrading, our team is meticulous about protecting your property. We carefully plan the work to preserve mature plants and hardscape whenever possible. Once the drainage system is in place, we restore the area with fresh topsoil and sod or seed, seamlessly integrating the solution back into your landscape. The result is a healthier, drier yard without sacrificing its beauty.
