Types of Yard Drainage Solutions
Surface Water Drainage
Surface drainage solutions are meant to drain out water from the surface of a garden or landscape. The water flowing to the drain, whether concrete or metal, will be channeled to a basin-type structure under the ground and then filtered of any debris, like grass, stones, or soil. This way, only the water can flow down to the piping system. Some examples of surface drainage solutions are trench or channel drains and catch basin drains.Subsoil Drainage
A subsoil or subsurface drainage system is installed underground. It is usually installed in garden beds, lawns, or low parts of a landscape or garden where water will most likely accumulate. The water then gets filtered of debris and then allowed to flow in another place far from the vegetation or landscape area. This is an ideal option for property owners who want to have drainage systems that are not highly visible.Importance of Drainage Systems
Although not usually visible, drainage systems are very important in gardens and landscapes. An effective and functioning drainage system will keep excess water from accumulating. It also keeps water from flowing or seeping to areas where it should not go, like the home’s foundation and lower areas in the landscape. It can prevent a lot of water or drainage issues such as:- Flooding
- Soil erosion
- Leaks and moisture intrusion
- Soil compaction and scarring
