French Drains for Water Problems, Flooding, & Erosion Control
Creating proper yard drainage is one of the most important components of any landscaping installation project. Drainage system installation will prevent water and flood damage to both inside and outside property and will control erosion. A properly designed and installed drainage system will collect water from downspouts and gutters and pull it away from your house. Drainage systems can also collect excess ground water that sits and causes soggy yards or that runs off causing erosion.

Common Water Problems & Our Drainage System Solutions
Poor yard drainage can lead to flooding on and around outside landscaping. Additionally, over time, poor yard drainage can result in interior basement flooding, water leaks, and foundation problems. Addressing potential drainage problems with proper drainage system installation as the signs of problems are first recognized or before they even begin when completing a new landscaping project, will help prevent serious drainage problems and damage in the future. Therefore, Malone’s Landscaping recommends using a combination of surface water drainage systems and below ground drainage systems as needed to control water drainage problems.
- Surface Water Drainage Systems: Surface drainage systems are designed to pull excess water from hardscapes, planting beds, or any areas where water tends to collect and to provide a set path along which this water should flow. This can include the use of catch basins, which will then direct water to an underground drainage system.
- Below Ground Drainage Systems: Installing an underground French drain will pull water from saturated yards and carry it out to a collection pit, drain line, or drain swale. Below ground drains prevent erosion and prevent water from saturating plants or lawns.
