CJR Landscape Design & Construction - Hudson's Reliable Landscapers

Poor drainage and dry spots are often symptoms of incorrect grading and inefficient sprinkler layout. Our design process begins with a precise analysis of your property's slope and soil. We then create a custom grading plan to direct water away from your home and eliminate pooling, paired with an irrigation design that zones your lawn based on sun exposure and plant needs. This targeted approach solves the root cause, not just the symptoms, for a healthier yard.

To prevent coverage gaps, a good design accounts for your yard's unique shape, sun/shade patterns, and water pressure. We recommend including a zoning plan that separates turf areas from planting beds, as they have different water needs. Using a mix of rotor and spray heads in the design ensures even coverage for both large open lawns and smaller, intricate areas. Proper head placement and spacing, as detailed in our plans, eliminate dry patches and conserve water.

Absolutely. This is a frequent issue when hardscapes are installed without considering overall site grading. Our landscape design service integrates hardscape elements like patios and walkways into a comprehensive drainage strategy. We design these features with subtle slopes (pitches) and may incorporate discreet drainage solutions like channel drains or permeable base materials within the plan. This ensures your new construction enhances your home without creating new water problems.
