[September 2019, Georgia] - U.S. Lawns helps site managers and commercial property owners in historic Macon, Georgia improve the drainage capabilities of their lawns through simple or elaborate landscaping solutions. By doing so, they can prevent excess water flow from damaging greenery and nearby structures.

Excess Water Damage
A commercial lawn with poor drainage is susceptible to many health and environmental issues. Stagnant pools of water are the perfect breeding grounds for pests such as mosquitoes and other insects. Prolonged submergence also threatens the health of ornamental plants and turf as it can lead to root rot.

Excess water is also a danger to structures and hardscaping on the property because it speeds up soil erosion. Erosion could lead to cracked walkways, uneven sidewalks, and undermine the integrity of the foundation of adjacent buildings.

U.S. Lawns' comprehensive commercial landscaping services can help site managers in Macon avoid these problems.

Elegant Drainage Solutions
U.S. Lawns' personnel install elegant landscaping solutions that improve the drainage capabilities of their customers' lawns.

Simple solutions include planting moisture-loving vegetation and native grass species in strategic positions throughout a lawn. They can also make the property's soil more absorbent by adding organic matter or sand.
More complex solutions include altering the topography of the property to change how excess water flows across it. U.S. Lawns also installs decorative landscape elements, such as drainage swales, French drains, and dry creek beds. These features are not only attractive, they siphon water away from the lawn, preventing it from flooding.
