Not every part of the Houston landscape is a flat tabletop of earth. Along Houston’s vast network of bayous, there are many hills that rise and fall along the tree line. Homes that border the tree line will need a residential landscape plan that incorporates professional hill landscaping techniques. These techniques will ensure maximum soil retention in the face of heavy rainfall and occasional flash flooding.
But before we can even begin to plan an effective plan of action for you, we need to thoroughly look over your property. The existing grade of the land must be carefully studied to determine how quickly water is currently draining of the hill. We also need to examine how much sunlight the hill is receiving in preparation for planting additional ground cover for soil retention.
Vegetation has always been nature’s most effective method of soil retention.
It is also one of the most effective tools of erosion control that professional hill landscaping borrows from nature.
