"This was a big drainage job. Scott had a hardworking crew and Scott is knows how to be efficient with time, supplies and fair on pricing. This job also included removing large bushes, trim trees and root barrier for 3 large trees. Looks really nice and water will drain away from the house and out into the ditch."

"Have used them twice since moving in several years ago. Second time was because I’d redone the back yard so needed to redo the lighting there. Brent and his crew did a great job at a reasonable price. They came when they said they would and cleaned up nicely when they were done. Highly recommend them for landscape lighting and putting in security lighting. Haven’t used them for holiday lighting but have seen some of their work and also recommend for anyone needing such."

"Douglas with Douglas Land and Landscaping installed a drainage line to the curb to stop the water ponding on the northside of the house. He also created a garden in my front yard and installed sod to the front yard and a sprinkler system. He also repaired the flagstone sidewalk to my front yard. All work was professionally completed. My wife and I love the work that was completed. Good prices. I strongly recommend Douglas Land and Landscaping Augustine and Karin Rodriguez Atascocita, Texas."

Landscaping questions, answered by experts

Yes, backyard landscaping and total-home landscaping add value to your home. According to the American Society of Landscape Architects (ASLA), high-quality landscape design has a 20 to 30 percent return on investment. So, when it comes time to sell your home, having a beautiful backyard landscaping oasis will increase your home’s value. 

As with anything you do near your foundation, you’ll want to ensure proper drainage when you plant your foundation beds. Your drainage should run downhill from the highest point against your foundation to avoid water intrusion and incurring expensive foundation repair costs.

Monkey grass makes a beautiful, low-maintenance ground cover, particularly in shadier areas where other grasses don’t receive enough sunlight to grow. It’s also excellent for edging walkways, bordering flower beds, and accenting rock gardens. You can grow it as a container plant, as well, which is a perfect solution for those who love its foliage but want to contain the spread.

Unless it only rains once in a blue moon where you live, you’re going to want water-loving plants in your garden bed or pot. A few ideas for plants that aren’t super fast-growing (meaning they’re good in pots or near foundations) and can handle a lot of standing water include: 

  • Acorus (Sweet flag)

  • Colocasia esculenta (Taro or elephant ear): In many climates, these are annuals, making them less desirable because you need to adjust the chain again after each replant.

  • Equisetum scirpoides (Dwarf horsetail rush): non-dwarf varieties of horsetail are fast growers and can take over quickly.

  • Juncus effusus (Curly rush)

  • Osmunda regalis (Royal fern): Royal fern can grow quickly but can also handle being crowded, making them good container plants.

If you choose to leave gaps between your pavers, you can grow some ground cover plants between them for an organic feel. Look for plants such as creeping thyme, dymondia, jewel mint of Corsica, or clover.
