Rubin's Lawn Care & Landscaping - Georgetown's Trusted Landscaping Services

In our area, it's often a combination of heavy clay soil and improper grading. Water can't percolate down or run off effectively, so it pools. We start with a thorough site assessment to identify the low spots and water flow. Our most effective fixes include regrading the landscape to create positive drainage away from your home and installing subsurface solutions like French drains to collect and redirect that water safely off your property.

Absolutely. We prioritize discreet, aesthetically pleasing solutions. For many Georgetown homes, we incorporate functional drainage into the landscape design. This can mean creating a decorative dry creek bed with native stones and plants that channels water away, or using permeable pavers in patios and walkways. The goal is to solve the water problem while enhancing your yard's natural beauty, leaving it looking better than we found it.

Yes, constant saturation drowns grass roots, promotes fungal disease, and compacts soil, making the problem worse over time. A temporary patch won't suffice. Our long-term approach involves correcting the underlying drainage issue—be it through grading, channel drains, or a combination of systems. We then recommend improving soil health with aeration and proper lawn care practices. This comprehensive strategy not only dries out the yard but also builds a healthier, more resilient lawn that can handle Georgetown's rainfall.
