One of the most important aspects of a healthy and beautiful landscape is proper drainage. Poor drainage can lead to a number of problems, including:


  • Flooding: This can damage your property and foundation, and create a breeding ground for mosquitoes and other pests.

  • Erosion: This can wash away topsoil, leaving your plants vulnerable to disease and pests.

  • Soggy lawns: This can make it difficult to enjoy your outdoor space, and can also lead to the growth of mold and mildew.


Nickens Landscaping & Excavating offers a variety of drainage solutions to help you avoid these problems. Our experienced professionals can assess your property and recommend the best solution for your needs. Some of the drainage solutions we offer include:


  • French drains: These are trenches filled with gravel that help to collect and redirect water away from your property.

  • Dry wells: These are holes in the ground that are filled with gravel and allow water to drain away from your foundation.

  • Swales: These are shallow ditches that help to channel water away from your property.

  • Grading: This involves changing the slope of your land to improve drainage.


By investing in proper drainage solutions, you can protect your property, improve the health of your landscape, and create a more enjoyable outdoor space.
