Grading is the act of leveling a surface, or creating a subtle slope, for drainage to occur on a landscape or garden. Proper lawn grading is essential for solving any residential or commercial drainage issues. If the yard isn't properly sloped away from the foundation, moisture will roll down the hill whenever it rains, or when there is melting snow on the property. This causes moisture to build up next to your foundation walls. Eventually, water always finds the path of least resistance and it will make its way into cracks and crevices in your exterior walls.
These are designed to hold back soil when there is a major change in elevation. Often times, these hardscapes are used to terrace lawns which originally had a very steep slope. They can also be used as a place for outdoor seating space, and they can be used to control erosion. Low walls can be used as planting beds, and there are many additional styles and designs available for you to select from for your North Metro Atlanta area home. After determining the depth in which the French drain needs to be, a trench is excavated to the spec width, depth and slope.
