Let Us Help Before the Rains Start
California’s rainy season can create challenges for construction sites, commercial properties, HOA communities, multifamily developments, public spaces, and established landscapes. Heavy rainfall can expose drainage issues, increase erosion, create muddy conditions, impact access, damage landscapes, and place additional stress on trees.
The best time to address these concerns is before the rain begins.
Across the Landscape Development family of companies, our landscape construction, landscape maintenance, arbor care, and landscape architecture teams bring experience from every stage of a property’s lifecycle. From active construction sites and newly built communities to established commercial properties and mature landscapes, our teams can help identify potential concerns and provide solutions that protect your site, landscape, and valuable living assets.
How We Can Help
Every property is different, but there are several areas that should be evaluated before significant rainfall arrives:
- Drainage & Stormwater Management – Identify low spots, drainage concerns, blocked pathways, and areas where water may collect or runoff may create problems.
- Straw Wattles & Erosion Control – Help stabilize exposed soil and slopes, slow runoff, and reduce sediment movement during heavy rainfall.
- Storm Drain Protection – Help keep landscape debris, sediment, and other materials from impacting drains and stormwater systems.
- Gravel & Site Access – Stabilize access areas and high-traffic locations to help reduce mud, soil tracking, and disruptions during wet conditions.
- Slope & Soil Stabilization – Address vulnerable slopes and exposed soils with appropriate erosion-control and landscape solutions.
- Permeable Surfaces – Incorporate materials and landscape strategies that allow water to infiltrate into the ground and help reduce surface runoff.
- Bioswales, Bioretention & LID – Support Low Impact Development features designed to capture, slow, filter, and manage stormwater throughout a property.
- Irrigation Adjustments – Monitor weather conditions and adjust irrigation schedules to account for natural rainfall, reduce unnecessary water use, and protect landscape health.
- Landscape & Drainage Inspections – Review established landscapes for debris, drainage concerns, erosion, standing-water areas, and other conditions that may become more significant during storms.
- Tree Risk Assessments – Evaluate trees for conditions that may become a concern when saturated soils, heavy rain, and strong winds occur.
- Tree Pruning & Plant Health Care – Address deadwood, hazardous limbs, structural concerns, tree health, and other conditions before severe weather arrives.
- Resilient Landscape Design – Incorporate thoughtful grading, planting, soils, permeable materials, drainage, bioswales, and LID strategies into landscape designs for better long-term performance.
- Post-Storm Cleanup & Response – Help properties recover after significant weather by removing fallen branches and landscape debris, addressing mud and sediment, clearing affected areas, and helping restore safe access and site conditions.
- Post-Storm Assessments – Evaluate erosion, drainage issues, damaged trees and plant material, slope concerns, standing water, and other storm-related impacts to identify repairs and corrective measures that may be needed.
