Common Landscape Problems and Solutions
Drainage Solutions
Problem: standing, stagnant water creating soggy areas with no visual appeal
Solution: design dry creek bed to direct water to a drain for water mitigation, and open up areas for proper landscaping
Site Planning Solutions
Problem: architectural plan does not maximize the lot for optimal use and views of outdoor spaces
Solution: adjust floor plan to take full advantage of what the entire property offers
Access Solutions
Problem: absent or unsightly pathways between home to other areas of yard
Solution: stone slab steps surrounded by landscaped beds to create visual appeal and accessibility
Erosion/Slope Solutions
Problem: steep and unappealing slopes make backyard spaces unusable
Solution: retaining walls to reduce slope and create flat spaces for patios, fire pit, swing set, etc.
Privacy/Buffer Solutions
Problem: back yard with bare spaces and unobstructed view of fence
Solution: create an organic buffer zone between the yard and the fence to add privacy and improve the view.
Curb Appeal Solutions
Problem: outdated, lackluster, or overgrown view from street
Solution: unsightly or overgrown plantings removed or shaped, updated landscaping draws eyes to the front door.
