How can we reduce erosion while building a patio under a new deck?

To reduce erosion when building a patio under a new deck, we incorporate several effective strategies:

  • Proper Grading: Ensuring the ground is graded correctly so water flows away from your home and patio area.
  • Drainage Solutions: Installing French drains, downspout extensions, or channel drains to direct water safely away and prevent pooling.
  • Permeable Materials: Using permeable pavers or gravel can help absorb rainwater and minimize runoff.
  • Retaining Structures: Adding retaining walls or landscape edging if your yard has a slope, to hold soil in place and further control erosion.

We include these measures as part of your project’s design and construction to ensure long-term stability and function. For recommendations tailored to your property, contact us at 301-875-2781 or info@designbuildersmd.com to schedule a consultation.
