Marietta-Twin Lakes

These clients were getting water in their basement every time it rained. Water was flowing from the back and neighbor's yard and pooling up against the house. My solution was a retaining wall backfilled with fill dirt and graded to divert water away from the house and towards an existing catch basin. We have had a couple of heavy rains since the installation and the homeowner has reported that water in the area is no longer a problem.

Marietta Drainage/Erosion Control/Grassing

Was able to finish this a few days ago. Brought in soil and regraded the side/front to redirect water away from the house-used jute erosion control fabric in areas that have been subject to erosion and seeded with a fescue/bluegrass mix.

Marietta Drainage/Erosion Control/Grassing

This site has a heavy volume of water crossing their property-most coming from adjacent yards. The combination of that and the water from their downspouts is causing problems on the side of their house with erosion and some flooding inside the structure. Today I took care of the downspouts, next on tap is a load of fill dirt that will be used to re-sculpt the side yard, fill in a large depression, and repair the erosion issues. I will then be laying down some jute erosion control fabric and planting fescue seed.
