As a drainage contractor serving the western Chicago suburbs, Fox Landscape offers yard grading as a foundational step in our comprehensive landscape renovations.
Is your yard suffering from pooling water, soggy grass days after a storm, or water visibly flowing toward your home's foundation? These common water management problems don't just render your outdoor living space unusable — they actively threaten your home's structural integrity and the longevity of your landscape. Let Fox Landscape solve these water problems!
At Fox Landscape, we specialize in high-end yard drainage and yard grading as a foundational step in our comprehensive landscape renovations. As a premium drainage contractor serving the western suburbs of Chicago, we don't just put a band-aid on water issues. We expertly correct the root causes, seamlessly integrating water management into beautiful, cohesive master plans that protect your property and elevate your curb appeal.
Proper water management is the unsung hero of any lasting landscape design. Fox Landscape’s yard grading and drainage renovations are specifically engineered to solve your most frustrating property issues. Combined with our landscape renovation services, our pro team allows you to reclaim fully beautify your yard.
When the ground slopes toward your house, water collects against the foundation, leading to costly structural damage and flooded basements. We expertly perform yard grading to reshape the earth, ensuring water flows safely away from your home.
Pooling water and constantly soggy turf make it impossible to enjoy your backyard. By installing comprehensive landscape drainage solutions, including expertly trenched PVC drainage systems, we capture and redirect standing water so you can reclaim your lawn.
Poor yard drainage is the leading cause of hardscape failure. Trapped water can freeze, expand, and destroy retaining walls or sink beautiful patios. We correct the grades across your yard and behind structural walls to ensure your premium paver and natural stone features last a lifetime.
Heavy runoff can wash away expensive mulch, drown hand-selected plants, and erode your topsoil. We reconfigure planting beds and adjust the surrounding grades to perfectly balance moisture levels for your softscapes. Our design team will also head to the nursery with you to help you pick out the types of plants your landscape needs to handle various water levels.
Fox Landscape brings a customer-focused mentality to every project, meaning we treat your property's water issues with the exact same care and business-level professionalism as we do our own. You can trust us to provide you with landscape drainage solutions that stand the test of time.
The most common signs include water pooling in the yard for days after a rainstorm, water running toward your home rather than away from it, soil erosion around your downspouts, and sinking or shifting patios and walkways.
Yes. As part of our comprehensive landscape renovations, we specialize in underground PVC drainage installation. We bury the downspouts and route the water invisibly under the ground, ensuring your yard functions perfectly without unsightly pipes ruining your landscape's aesthetic.
Typically, yes. Because fixing severe drainage and grading issues requires earthmoving, it is usually the perfect time to undertake a larger landscape renovation. We seamlessly tie your new drainage systems into upgraded paver patios, rebuilt retaining walls, and reconfigured planting beds to deliver a unified, beautiful result.
While grading naturally involves moving earth, we are meticulous about our work. We utilize clean, well-maintained equipment and uniformed, professional crews who respect your property. Furthermore, we utilize landscape enhancements — like sod restoration and fresh mulch — to beautifully repair and revitalize the area the moment the underground work is finished.
Don't let poor drainage ruin your property or limit your outdoor living spaces. You can improve your water drainage and beautify your yard in one phased project with the expertise of Fox Landscape. If you are ready to correct your property's grading and transform your yard into a lasting, high-end landscape, let's discuss your plans. Message us or call anytime!
