What is Aeration?

Calgary Aeration is the process of air exchange between the soil and its surrounding atmosphere. 

Practically speaking, aeration is the process of mechanically removing small plugs of thatch and soil from the lawn to improve natural soil aeration. It’s commonly called “core aeration” in the lawn service industry, and you may have heard of it as soil cultivation (coring, spiking and slicing). Most homeowners simply call it aeration.

Grass needs plenty of water, oxygen, and nutrients to grow to be healthy and green and to ward off insects, molds, and disease. By aerating, the roots of grass can better absorb the solution of water, oxygen, and other nutrients so necessary to vibrant health. 

Best to do Aeration on lawns where children play, grownups picnic, and pets romp the soil becomes compacted and aeration becomes vitally necessary to maintain a loosened soil, and thus a healthy lawn. While aeration of your lawn can be done at any time, there are “best times” depending on your type of grass. Mid-spring to early summer is recommended for warm-season grasses and early fall is recommended for cool-season grasses.

Once again, it is highly recommended to use a professional lawn care service to do the aeration. If you live in the Calgary area of Alberta, A Green Future for Lawn has over ten years of experience and will do an exceptional job for you. Also, if you have any questions regarding aeration click here to contact us or visit our website homepage.

In these 11 steps we will explain how this residential yard drainage system will move the water away from the foundation walls of the house to allow your house to be safe from water damages and lawn back to lush green.

Calgary Landscaping Drainage Solution

Steps to install drainage around your house:

Locate places where your Calgary Landscaping lawn is retaining too much water, with water standing on the soil for more than an hour after a rain.

 

1. Monitor, walk through around your house landscaping during the rain storm and after the rain storm:

 

This is number one step to eliminate any future basement flooding due to yard drainage, in this step you will locate the places to where your grass / lawn is retaining too much water. Standing water on the grass is a dangerous and a big sign of there is water issue at your yard, if this standing water did not soak into the ground after one hour of rain fall then a drainage solution is required.

Calgary Landscaping Drainage Fixing

2.  Identify the dry drainage spots of your future drainage system solution

For every wet area, locate the lower spot of the yard and mark it with a rock or fly ( I am sure you can find small rocks around your Calgary landscaped yard, Or if your yard have no rocks; a sprinkler system flag from winterization / winter blow out comes in handy or even wood sticks would work)  this will help you plan the drainage system of your landscaping project. This location should be away from the house to eliminate any water going to the basement and NEVER place the end of the drainage system between houses as water may flow to your neighbour yard and can cause future issues therefore, we at A Green Future recommend placing the end of the drainage solution system to   be at a  lower elevation than the standing water location. 

How to regrade around foundation?

3. Remove the Grass from the location and place it on the side for future use

Depending on the location, this location could be a lawn area where you would need to remove the grass and then can be placed back once the drainage solution system project is complete, or this could be a gravel area ( a low maintenance yard) you also would need to place the gravel on the side to check the slope under the gravel and this can be used back in place at the end.

Once grass is placed on the side, dig at the drainage location a drywall of size 2 feet wide x 3 feet deep and haul the soil and wet clay out of your yard as this will be replaced with drainage gravel.

4.Form A TRENCH / French Drain System to solve the drainage problem inage gravel.

Excavate a trench of 1 foot wide and approximately 10 inches deep depending on the slope of your yard, trenching in Calgary must be in a slope, A Green Future drainage experts recommend every 1 foot of trench to have a slope of 1/8 inch which will be sufficient to allow water escape and flow away from he wet drainage problem at your Calgary landscaping yard which means for every 4 feet you would have a slope of half inch, a four foot level comes in handing as the trench is being in progress.

This means wherever there is grass in the trench location needs to be cut out and placed on the side, and all the clay/soil needs to be taken away from the location. 

Solve Simple Calgary landscaping drainage problems installation

5. How to check the slope of the drainage trench / french drain:

This is the most important part of all the drainage solution, after all the hard work now its time to test the slope of the drainage trench, simply get a 4 foot level and check the slope of the trench, and adjust the trench depth when necessary, the slope we recommend is to be half inch for every 4 linear feet. 

You may also check with the tape measure; by measuring the depth of the trench every 4 feet and confirming  there is a half inch slope for every 4 feet. 

( Important Note: Depends on the severity of the drainage issue, this is on a case by case scenario, to help the water run faster away from the house or foundation  you may increase the slope of the trench by double which means for every four linear feet of trench to have a 1 inch slope, this would require more digging  and double the clay/soil cubic yards but it is recommended if there is more than one source of water leading to the wet drainage problem at your Calgary landscaped yard. 

6. Landscaping fabric and galvanized nails 

Once trench is complete, and confirmed the slope of the trench, place landscaping fabric inside the trench, and the main goal is to keep the soil out of the trench as this will be where the water will be running inside the trench. 

Hold the landscaping fabric with galvanized U nails to make it easy for you in the next steps of solving the drainage solution with drainage system 

7. Drainage gravel inside the drainage trench:

Keep in mind, the trench digging is the key and most important factor in this drainage solution system, if there is no slope then the water will sit inside the pipe and may cause freezing in the winter times with our Calgary weather. 

Now place a 1-2 inches of gravel layer on the bottom of the trench.

8. Place 4 inch drainage pipe inside the french drain trench: 

Place perforated drainage pipe inside the trench and be above the first 2 inches of the gravel, this perforated drainage pipe would be a 4 inch diameter.

9. Add more gravel and landscaping fabric inside the drainage system:

Then place 2-3 inches of gravel on the top of the perforated drainage pipe.

Important to place fabric on the top of the gravel to eliminate any soil going into the drainage system and clog the system

10. Place the soil back for your grass :

Once the fabric in place then place 2-3 inches of the soil back and compact it 

11. Place the grass back in place:

Finally you may place the grass back in place.

8 Effective Strategies to Prevent Damaging Yard Drainage Issues in Calgary

 Yard drainage issues are a common concern for homeowners in Calgary, especially during the spring when melting snow and rain can cause flooding and water damage. However, with the right strategies in place, you can effectively prevent these issues and protect your property. In this article, we'll explore 8 effective strategies to prevent damaging yard drainage issues in Calgary.

  1. Understanding yard drainage systems and how they work
    Effective yard drainage systems are essential to prevent water damage and soil erosion on your property. A proper yard drainage system helps to move water away from your home's foundation and yard, reducing the risk of flooding. Understanding how yard drainage systems work and their components, such as pipes, catch basins, and grates, can help you identify potential problems and maintain your system. A professional landscaper can also help you design and install an effective yard drainage system that suits your specific property and its unique drainage needs.
  2. Common causes of yard drainage issues in Calgary and how to prevent them
    Calgary's heavy rainfalls, melting snow, and clay soils can create a perfect storm for yard drainage issues. Some of the common causes of yard drainage issues in Calgary include poor grading, clogged gutters, broken pipes, and insufficient drainage systems. To prevent these issues, homeowners should regularly inspect their drainage systems, maintain their gutters, and ensure that their grading is adequate. Additionally, investing in a professional yard drainage system installation can help prevent these issues and provide peace of mind.
  3. The importance of grading and how it affects yard drainage
    Grading is one of the most crucial aspects of effective yard drainage. A proper slope of the soil away from your home's foundation helps move water away from your property and prevent damage. Calgary's clay soil can be challenging to grade, and improper grading can cause water to pool near your home's foundation or create erosion issues. Hiring a professional landscaper to grade your property can help ensure that your yard drainage is functioning correctly.
  4. French drain installation for effective yard drainage in Calgary
    French drains are an effective solution to yard drainage issues, particularly in Calgary's wet climate. A French drain consists of a perforated pipe surrounded by gravel and fabric that helps collect and redirect water away from your property. French drains are particularly useful in low-lying areas or properties with inadequate grading. A professional landscaper can help design and install a French drain system that suits your specific drainage needs.
  5. Using permeable pavers to prevent yard drainage issues
    Permeable pavers are an eco-friendly solution to prevent yard drainage issues. Unlike traditional pavers, permeable pavers allow water to drain through the surface, reducing runoff and potential flooding. Permeable pavers come in various styles and materials, making it easy to find a design that fits your property's aesthetic. Additionally, permeable pavers can help earn LEED certification points for sustainable building practices.
  6. How to choose the right plants for better yard drainage in Calgary
    Proper plant selection can help prevent yard drainage issues in Calgary. Native plants, such as wildflowers and shrubs, can help improve soil quality, reduce erosion, and promote water absorption. Additionally, choosing plants that prefer moist soil, such as ferns and sedges, can help improve yard drainage by absorbing excess water. A professional landscaper can help you choose the right plants for your property and ensure that they are planted in the correct location for maximum effectiveness.
  7. Protecting your home from yard drainage issues in Calgary
    Preventing yard drainage issues is critical to protecting your home from water damage. Regularly inspecting your gutters, grading, and drainage systems can help identify potential problems before they turn into costly repairs. Additionally, investing in a professional yard drainage system installation can provide peace of mind and help protect your home from flooding.
  8. Rain barrels and other sustainable solutions for yard drainage
    Rain barrels and other sustainable solutions can help prevent yard drainage issues while conserving water. Installing rain barrels can help capture rainwater from your roof, reducing runoff and allowing for later use in your garden or lawn. Additionally, other sustainable solutions, such as bioswales and rain gardens, can help improve.
