High-Quality Swales Designed to Shape Stronger, Drier Owensboro Landscapes
Swales are an essential component of effective water management on residential and commercial properties. At Fresh Start Lawncare & Landscaping LLC, we specialize in designing and installing swales that safely redirect rainwater, prevent erosion, and protect your Owensboro landscape and structures from water damage. Properly constructed swales work by channeling runoff along shallow, vegetated depressions, allowing water to infiltrate the soil while maintaining natural flow patterns. By integrating swales into your landscape, we can reduce pooling, improve soil health, and create a functional, environmentally friendly solution for controlling stormwater.

Shallow Drainage Built with Smart Grading & Clean Water Paths
In addition to their primary drainage function, swales can be combined with other stormwater management features to maximize efficiency and durability. We often integrate catch basins and trench drains with swales to handle concentrated water flow in high-traffic or problem areas, ensuring your property remains safe during heavy rainfall. This combination allows for precise water redirection while preventing damage to hardscapes, walkways, and garden beds.
Our team carefully assesses the slope, soil type, and existing landscape features to design swales that not only manage water effectively but also enhance the aesthetic appeal of your outdoor spaces in Owensboro.
