Westlake Landscape Company offers Irrigation & Drainage services to residential and commercial clients in Westlake and the towns of Southlake and Flower Mound.
Lawn & landscape irrigation is a highly specialized skill that combines the use of plumbing, electronics and hydraulic engineering to deliver the correct amount of water to your lawn and landscape plants. The correct amount of water to keep plants and turf healthy can change every day. Rainfall, temperature, wind, day length, soil type, soil water capacity and several other factors all change on a daily basis to affect how much water your lawn & landscape needs. We offer rain sensors that turn off your system after natural rainfall has occurred. They will even keep your system turned off until the soil dries out and requires more water. If your lawn or plants get too much water, it not only wastes water but is harmful to the plants. Too little water and your plants and lawn suffer as well. Our job is to make sure your plants and turf get just the right amount of water for a landscape that enhances the beauty and health of your outdoor world.
Proper drainage and control of water on your residential or commercial property is essential. Harvest Landscape offers the evaluation and recommendation of proper drainage solutions to meet your needs. In order to assist the water to flow properly, we may recommend the installation of a French Drain. The purpose of a French Drainage System is to carry unwanted free standing water away from a building, such as your home. French drains are commonly installed near the perimeter of a building at the lowest point or anywhere where standing water is found. The system may terminate at any point where the water will not drain back toward the house. The best approach is to run the water out to the street or to a dry well.
French drains are generally shallow drainage systems. However, as with your plumbing waste drainage, French drains operate on the principle of gravity. The drain must slope downward. The minimum recommended slope is 1/4 inch per foot. If the landscape grade runs upward along the French drain path you will have to dig deeper to maintain a downward slope.
