O and J Landscaping and Construction: Expert Landscapers Serving Salem, NH 03079

As a full-service landscaping and construction company in Salem, we start by diagnosing the cause of your standing water. Often, the solution involves correcting the yard's grading to direct water away from your home, installing a subsurface French drain system to collect and redirect water, or creating a dry well. We handle the entire process from excavation to final grading and sodding, ensuring a seamless fix that protects your property and improves drainage.

Absolutely. That's the advantage of choosing O and J. We are both landscapers and contractors. We'll first solve the core drainage or construction issue—whether it's installing a new drain line or repairing a foundation affected by water. Then, our landscaping team will expertly restore or redesign the area with new sod, plants, hardscaping, or irrigation, giving you a beautiful, worry-free yard that solves the problem for good.

Salem's soil composition and topography can lead to drainage challenges. Heavy clay soils common in the area don't absorb water quickly, and properties on slopes or in low-lying areas are especially prone to pooling. Left unchecked, this water can erode soil, flood basements, and damage your home's foundation. Our local expertise means we understand these specific conditions and design proven, custom drainage solutions that work for Salem properties.
