Fix waterlogged lawns and poor drainage before it causes real damage.
🏆 The Golden Standard, on every visit
How does drainage solutions work?
A garden that holds water after rain is doing damage you often can't see, waterlogged roots, eroding soil and pressure building against retaining walls and foundations.
We diagnose where the water is coming from and going wrong, then fix it with surface grading, subsoil drains, agi pipe, pop-up outlets or a combination of all three depending on the site.
We can also tie drainage into a retaining wall or new turf and garden bed installation so the fix happens at the same time as the rest of the job.

FAQ
Drainage Solutions, your questions answered
How do I know if it's a drainage problem?
Water sitting on the lawn or garden beds more than a few hours after rain, soggy patches that never fully dry out, or water pooling against a retaining wall or fence line are all signs. We can inspect the site and tell you what's actually causing it before quoting a fix.
Will this affect my retaining walls or foundations?
Poor drainage is one of the most common causes of retaining wall failure and foundation movement over time, since water builds pressure behind a wall that isn't draining properly. Fixing drainage early is usually far cheaper than repairing the wall later.
How often should I have this done?
It depends on the job and the season, lawns and hedges want a regular rhythm through the warmer months, while bigger garden work is usually a once or twice a year thing. We will suggest an interval that suits your yard, and on a Golden Circle Membership plan we track the timing so it never gets forgotten.
Do I need to be home while you work?
Not necessarily. As long as we can get to the yard and to an outdoor tap if the job needs water, plenty of our residential work is done while you're out, we confirm everything beforehand and send photos when it's finished.
Are you fully insured?
Yes, Golden Landscaping is fully insured, and we're owner-operated, so the person who quotes your job is the person responsible for the result.
Is the quote really free and fixed?
Yes. Quotes are free and fixed, you'll know the price before we start, with no hourly meter and no surprises on the invoice. A quick call with a couple of photos is usually all we need.
Do you take the green waste away?
Yes. Clippings, prunings and garden debris can be mulched back where that suits, left in your green bin, or taken away with us, just tell us which you would prefer when you book.
