Your yard shouldn’t turn into a puddle every time it rains.
Standing water, soggy areas, and awkward slopes can make an otherwise great yard difficult to use. We look at how water moves across your property and help determine what can be done to improve the space.

REAL REVIEWS, REAL RESULTS
Homeowners trust Orion Hardscape to look beyond the obvious problem and understand how their landscape and hardscape work together.

Drainage problems can be annoying because what you see isn’t always where the problem starts. Water may collect in one part of the yard because of a slope somewhere else, the way surrounding areas were built, or how the ground carries runoff after heavy rain.
That’s why we don’t want to guess.
We look at the property, existing grades, lawn, landscape beds, patios, walkways, walls, and the areas where you’ve noticed trouble. Understanding how everything connects gives us a much better idea of what may need to change.
Grading and drainage are less about making something decorative and more about making the yard work properly. When it’s done well, you may simply notice that the problem area isn’t a problem anymore.
Before talking about a solution, we need to understand the property. What happens during or after rain can tell us a lot about how the yard is working.
Let us know where water collects, how long it stays, and anything else you’ve noticed around the property.
We’ll examine the grade, problem areas, surrounding landscape, and existing hardscape.
Once we understand the situation better, we’ll explain what we’re seeing and discuss the approach that makes sense.
After the scope is approved, we’ll coordinate the drainage or grading project.
When problem areas work better, the rest of your outdoor space becomes easier to enjoy too.
The wet patch in your lawn may only be one part of what’s going on. Drainage is affected by slopes, surfaces, landscape features, and the way water travels through the property. We look beyond the puddle itself.
There’s a big difference between seeing standing water and understanding why it keeps showing up.
We take time to look at the surrounding yard before recommending work.
Patios, walkways, retaining walls, and other hardscape can all affect how an outdoor space is laid out.
Because hardscape is a major part of what Orion does, we can consider those existing features while looking at the drainage issue.
Drainage work shouldn’t be more complicated than the property actually requires.
We focus on understanding what’s happening first and then discussing an approach that fits the situation.
Fixing one issue shouldn’t make another part of the yard harder to use.
We consider how the drainage or grading work fits with the lawn, landscaping, and other outdoor areas around it.

Water issues can be confusing because the cause isn’t always visible. These questions cover some of the things homeowners often notice before calling us.

There can be several reasons, including the slope of the property and the way water reaches or leaves that area.
Seeing the property is usually the best way to start figuring it out.
Standing water is a sign worth looking into, but we don’t want to diagnose the cause without seeing the space.
Different properties can have similar symptoms for different reasons.
Grading refers to the shape and slope of the ground, while drainage deals more broadly with how water moves through or away from an area.
The two can be closely connected depending on the property.
Areas where water repeatedly collects can certainly make parts of a yard harder to use or maintain.
If you’re seeing the same wet areas again and again, it’s worth taking a closer look.
Existing hardscape is something we consider when evaluating drainage.
We’ll look at the patio and surrounding areas to better understand where the water may be coming from and where it is going.
Not necessarily. The amount of work depends entirely on what’s causing the issue.
That’s another reason we prefer to evaluate the property before talking about a specific solution.
That depends on the property and the issue we’re trying to address.
Sometimes one area may be involved, while in other situations we need to consider a larger section to understand how water is moving.
Drainage should be part of the conversation when planning outdoor improvements where water movement may be relevant.
If you’re considering a patio, walkway, wall, or other project, tell us about the full scope.
There’s no meaningful flat price because properties and drainage problems vary so much.
Once we see the yard and understand the work involved, we can provide an estimate.
Tell us where the water appears, when you notice it, and what happens after rain.
Photos or observations can be useful, but seeing the property will give us the clearest picture.
