Rainy season: does water sit in your yard after every storm?
If the same spot floods every afternoon, or the downspouts empty against the house, the water needs somewhere to go.

Adequate drainage can help your lawn thrive.
A well-kept lawn is something that every property owner is proud of. However, getting that perfect yard takes more than just watering and mowing it every week. At Genesis Sprinklers and Water Management, LLC, we can help you gain pride in your yard by offering services, such as drainage, to elevate your lawn to reach its full potential.
Why does drainage matter in the Lakewood Ranch, Florida area? When water moves away from the soil’s top, this is called drainage. It’s not the most exciting part of landscaping, but it’s essential for the health and longevity of your yard. Good drainage helps keep the lawn from waterlogging, which happens when too much water builds up on top of or just below the grass’s surface. Soil that is too wet can choke the grassroots, which can make the grass not grow well or even kill it. It also makes a good place for bugs and diseases to thrive.
Additionally, when the earth is always wet, the roots can’t get enough oxygen, which makes the grass weaker and more likely to have problems. With our services, we help your yard get the oxygen it needs to promote healthy grass roots and grow strong.
Another thing to consider when discussing why proper drainage is crucial is that erosion is less likely to happen if the land has good drainage. Erosion occurs when water washes away the topsoil, leaving your lawn with bare spots where the grass roots are exposed. You can keep the integrity of your soil by moving extra water away from the top with an efficient drainage plan.
"Timely, cost-effective, and of high quality.”
“Tave did an excellent job rebuilding the broken valve manifold, completing the task quickly and correctly without taking shortcuts. The work was thorough, including a two-year warranty. After finishing, Tave and team carefully restored the work area, like re-laying the grass, and shared helpful tips on maintaining and tuning the equipment. The service was timely, cost-effective, and of high quality.”

Our team has the skills and experience needed to assess your property and determine the root cause of your drainage problems. From there, we can recommend and implement the appropriate solution(s).
What are French drains?
A French drain is a gravel-filled trench that also consists of a perforated pipe. It directs surface water and groundwater away from problem areas like a home’s foundation. French drains are commonly used in our area because they are effective at reducing standing water and preventing erosion and lawn damage.
