Yard Drainage and Grading in the Glen Gardner Area
Water goes where it should.
We fix drainage problems across the Glen Gardner area and Lebanon Township, from water that pools on the lawn to runoff that heads for the house or washes out a slope.
Most yard problems start with water
Standing water, a soggy lawn, a washed out slope, or water running toward the foundation all come back to how the yard is shaped. Around Glen Gardner and Lebanon Township, many properties sit on uneven ground, and erosion is a common problem.
We start by finding where the water comes from and where it can safely go. The answer is often a change in grade, a retaining wall that holds a slope, or a patio or walkway rebuilt with the right pitch. Drainage is also planned into every patio, wall, and driveway we build.
Drainage work is quiet when it is done right. You notice it after the next big storm, when the yard stays usable and the water stays away from the house.
Drainage and grading are part of the work we do as a landscaper serving Glen Gardner. On sloped yards, the fix often includes a retaining wall built with drainage behind it.
What sets the work apart.
A to-scale plan with 3D renderings available, a properly prepared base with drainage, and a lifetime workmanship warranty on qualifying new hardscape installations.
Find the source first
We look at where water enters the yard, where it collects, and where it can go before we recommend any work.
Grade and structure together
Grading, walls, and hardscape are planned together so the fix holds up.

Questions we hear often.
Why does water pool in my yard?
Usually because of how the ground is shaped. Low spots, a grade that slopes toward the house, or hard surfaces with the wrong pitch all send water where you do not want it.
Can a retaining wall help with erosion?
Often, yes. A wall built with drainage behind it can hold a slope and give you level ground above it.
Can you fix drainage around an existing patio?
In many cases, yes. Sometimes the patio needs to be lifted and reset with the right pitch. We look at it on site and tell you what will work.
Do you work on drainage in Lebanon Township?
Yes. We work across the Glen Gardner area, including Lebanon Township, Califon, Clinton, High Bridge, and the rest of Hunterdon County.
