A Baltimore fill dirt contractor at Dirt Connections released a blog discussing how to use fill dirt to create landscaping that allows for water drainage. Proper drainage can help protect houses and yards that are in areas that experience heavy rainfall.
Better water drainage in your home's backyard can help keep your property safe. When water seeps into the foundation of your home, it can weaken the structure and allow water to travel up into walls and floors. This, in turn, may cause rot, mildew, and even insect infestations. Water in the basement, meanwhile, can increase humidity levels in the basement and create both poor air quality and mold. To avoid these problems, consider landscaping your yard to provide optimal drainage.
There are several landscaping options that not only create better drainage in your yard, but beautify it in the process. A swale, or depression around the base of a slope, channels water from one place to another. You can create a slope using fill dirt and decorate the area with grasses and prairie plants, which thrive in fast-draining soil. A rain garden, designed to catch and drain water into the soil around flowers, can be constructed by using fill dirt to form a shallow wall around the designated garden area, forcing water into it. Finally, consider installing pipes and drains, if necessary. French drains and dry wells allow water to sink into the ground without drastically altering the appearance of your yard, and fill dirt can help you level the ground and fill in gaps after installation.
