Service Description

One of the first considerations for any new garden design should be water. How does the site handle rain, and/or water runoff from adjacent properties? How well does it drain? Where does the runoff go? Additionally, how will you get water to the areas that require it during dry periods? Choice of materials for pathways, garden beds and relaxing/social areas will need to consider these factors. Identification of any water issues, and then planning appropriate drainage, water tank storage and irrigation will ensure greater longevity of any outdoor design, ease of ongoing maintenance and reduction in long-term costs, Far Northern Gardens has experience in planning and implementation of water management solutions for residential sites that blend naturally into the landscape and can provide recommendations as a service or part of a design consultation.
