Irrigation & Drainage

An important aspect to the overall health of a lawn is proper irrigation. Proper irrigation benefits plants by stimulating root growth, healthy leaves, and flower blooming. Adequate water supply is essential to plants as a system to transport nutrients from the soil. Thus, irrigation systems are valuable in providing water and nutrients to plants. Installing an irrigation system can prevent uneven watering, improving the cohesion and overall appearance of your lawn. Manual lawn watering is time-consuming—you can save on water and time by having Good Neighbour install an underground irrigation system. These worry-free systems apply water directly to root systems to water lawns with high-efficiency. Directing water to the roots of plants is the most efficient way of hydration, as plants take up water through their roots. Underground irrigation is discreet, meaning it won’t affect the design of your yard. Contact Good Neighbour today for a free consultation.

Drainage systems can help prevent yard flooding, nutrient runoff, and soil erosion—all of which damage lawns. Areas that tend to collect water and flood are those located at low elevations. It is important to know the elevation of your yard in order to provide accurate drainage services. Good Neighbour has knowledge and experience in providing proper overland drainage suited for your yard’s conditions. Proper drainage includes checking for correctly installed eavestrough and downspouts, installing drainage swales, and increasing positive slope. Contact Good Neighbour today for a free consultation.
