Landscaping & hardscaping in Silver Spring
Water pooling beside a house can make it hard to decide what belongs in the surrounding yard. The illustrative drainage image in our gallery shows why a wet patch needs more thought than simply picking plants or paving over it. First, you need to know where the water is collecting and where it can go.
Plan the ground before the garden
Our drainage work deals with the water itself; grading addresses the shape of the ground it crosses. Which approach fits depends on the site. If you’d like new beds in the area too, the place to begin is with the ground they would sit in, rather than assuming the same plants will work after the slope changes.
If you’re planning a broader landscape update or a new patio, tell us which areas stay wet and what you’d like to use them for. Our hardscaping work starts with that same question about the ground beneath the finished surface.
For a wet yard, start with the water’s route
Where is water arriving, where does it collect, and where could it safely leave the yard? Those questions help separate grading from a landscape drain. This is yard-runoff planning, not a plumbing diagnosis or a promise that one kind of drain will fix every site.
Before relying on a county permit or rebate page, check the parcel’s jurisdiction. The county municipality guide shows why a mailing place is not enough, and RainScapes lists its own property-location exclusions.
