Drainage & Grading in Newtown Square, PA

Newtown Square mixes newer suburban developments with rolling, semi-rural terrain, so many lots step downhill and dump runoff from the street or uphill neighbors straight across the back yard. The schist-clay subsoil holds that water, leaving spongy lawns and erosion where it concentrates. JHL designs and installs swales, French drains and regrading that catch the borrowed water from above and route it off the property cleanly.

Drainage & Grading for Newtown Square Homes

• Lots that receive runoff from uphill get an intercept swale or French drain along the high side.
• Spongy lawns over clay subsoil are regraded and drained so they finally firm up.
• We channel concentrated flow into buried pipe and a dry well instead of letting it scour the yard.
• Downspout and driveway water is collected and carried to daylight away from the foundation.

Every Newtown Square project begins with a custom 3D rendering, so you see the finished design before any work starts. Learn more about our drainage & grading or explore all our landscaping services in Newtown Square.
