Drainage swales can be a natural part of your landscaping or the foundation contractors at A-1 Concrete Leveling & Foundation Repair can help create one for you, either in the dirt or constructed out of concrete. You can count on us to help you design and implement a drainage system that protects your home.

What Is A Drainage Swale?

A drainage swale is a system that allows for water to enter the ground in an area where it will not damage your home, foundation, or landscaping. Drainage swales can occur naturally, but to ensure that your home has adequate drainage, it’s a good idea to have one created on your property by experts. By creating recessed areas, we can direct drainage to a place where it can be absorbed by your landscaping and other ground materials at a safe distance from your home.

Why Is Drainage So Important?

In a perfect world, water would always drain away from your foundation and into areas where it would help your landscaping look as green and lush as possible. But because this isn’t a perfect world, sometimes it takes some work to ensure that the drainage on your property is optimized. If there isn’t adequate drainage, your home could be in danger, and so could your landscaping. Improper drainage can cause flooding and foundation damage, and ruin your yard. If your home gets flooded or your foundation is damaged, you could be at risk of several issues that could jeopardize your safety and your home.
