There’s a reason professional landscape designers get college degrees.
Man, there’s a lot of stuff to keep in mind.
When Orlando landscape designers study landscape design, they learn about mass, form, line, texture, and color. Then they combine these elements to transform your yard.
Sounds kind of fancy. But it’s why your new paver patio could have such graceful lines. It’s why your yard could be filled with plants with a variety of intriguing colors and textures.
It doesn’t take an engineering genius to figure out why paver patio and driveway drainage can be a challenge.
You take away grass, which is permeable, and replace it with concrete pavers, which aren’t permeable.
When it rains, the water has to go somewhere, right?

A new patio, maybe, or a sleek new driveway? Time to finally update that cracked and sunken concrete walkway to your front door?
You probably have some questions.

Read anything fascinating about yard drainage lately?
What? You don’t think yard drains are fascinating? Hmm, maybe it’s just us.
But if you live in a newer Orlando neighborhood, chances are you need some kind of yard drainage.
Drainage here in Orlando is a continuing problem as the city grows. All the dry areas have already been developed, so nearly all the houses in new neighborhoods have drainage problems. The already-wet ground can’t absorb extra water.
New homes also often have poor soil, so water doesn’t seep in as well as it should.
What kind of yard drain is best for your house?
New pavers! This is exciting!
Driveway? New walkways? That dream patio you’ve always wanted? Curves, or rectangle?
