Nobody walks into a design consultation and says, "I am really excited about drainage." People get excited about patios. Fire pits. Outdoor kitchens. Plantings that change color in the fall. Those are the features that make a backyard feel like something worth showing off.

But here is the truth that every experienced landscape professional knows: none of those features will perform the way they should if the water on your property is not managed first. Drainage is the invisible system that holds everything else together. When it works, you never think about it. When it does not, it undermines everything around it.
