Start with where the water comes from

Roof water, driveway runoff, neighbor runoff, patio slope, compacted soil, and low lawn areas can all push water toward a structure. A good fix starts by identifying the source.

Grade matters before products

If the land slopes toward the house, a drain alone may not solve the issue. Grading, swales, downspout routing, or hardscape corrections may need to work together.

Patios and walkways need water planning too

Hard surfaces shed water quickly. If patios, walks, or drive areas do not move water correctly, runoff can pool at edges, soften base material, or create freeze-thaw issues.

The goal is controlled discharge

The best solution moves water to a safer area where it can drain, disperse, or exit without flooding a neighbor, damaging landscaping, or creating a new wet spot.

Questions homeowners ask

Quick answers before you request an estimate.

What if water is pooling near my foundation?Have the grading, downspouts, soil, and runoff path reviewed so water can be routed away from the structure.

Can patios cause drainage problems?Yes. Hardscapes can change water movement, so drainage should be reviewed before and after patio or walkway work.

Does Terramorph handle drainage and landscaping together?Yes. Drainage can be scoped with landscape, patio, bed, and property improvement work.
