Drainage & Erosion Control in Braselton, GA

If your yard in Braselton stays wet after rain or you're seeing soil wash away after storms, you likely have a drainage issue. Many properties in Braselton are built on sloped terrain or clay-heavy soil, which leads to poor water absorption and fast runoff. At Razor Sharp Lawn & Landscape, we design and install drainage systems that protect your yard, foundation, and landscaping from water damage.

From Broadmoor to Liberty Estates, we serve homeowners throughout Braselton with reliable, long-term drainage solutions.

Common Drainage Problems in Braselton

Braselton is known for its rolling hills and beautiful views—but those slopes can quickly turn into water problems without proper drainage. We often see:

    • Standing water in low spots after rain
    • Soil erosion along sloped yards and driveways
    • Runoff from uphill neighbors flooding your lawn or patio
    • Soggy grass that never fully dries
    • Puddles near foundations, crawlspaces, or basement walls

"I called Matt at Razor Sharp Landscaping to consult on a drainage issue I had in my backyard. He gave me a couple of options, and I decided to go with landscaping the area with flowering bushes and plants, river rocks and small boulders. His quote was timely, included a sketch and plant recommendations at a reasonable cost. He and his staff arrived on time, on the day expected and completed the work very quickly. I am very happy with the results and definitely recommend them!"

Why Braselton Properties Are Prone to Water Issues

The soil in much of Braselton contains dense Georgia red clay, which holds water but drains slowly. When paired with hills, new construction grading, or tightly packed neighborhoods, this creates ideal conditions for:

    • Poor drainage after heavy storms
    • Surface runoff flowing toward your house
    • Erosion along mulch beds, garden edges, or walkways
    • Damage to retaining walls or patios

Without an effective drainage plan, small issues can lead to long-term damage.

Runoff from Neighbors or Steep Slopes? We Can Help

If your home sits below another lot, or near the bottom of a hill, there’s a good chance runoff is coming from outside your property. That’s common in Braselton’s newer developments. We install systems to intercept, slow down, and redirect that water before it causes erosion, flooding, or landscaping damage.

Matt and his crew put in a French drain for me; I had a standing water issue for several years. They did an exceptional job of not only trenching for the pipe but cleanup and laying of sod where the existing grass had been devastated by my drainage problems. They arrived when they said they would and finished the job in about 7 hours. I would recommend Razor Sharp for not only their excellent work but also a fair price! I will definitely use them again should the need arise because Matt and his crew are a "first class" outfit!

The pictures speaks for itself. Matt and Kelly did a miracle on my yard. At first I was nervous and was asking a lotta Questions. Kelly said to me, “trust the process. Trust me, it’s not gonna be bad as it looks when we’re done.” They were very professional and detailed with the information about their project. And I gotta say. They did excellent💯 They put up a retaining wall with a French drain and also pushed my hill back a little further, giving me more yardage at the bottom. We have been getting so many compliments about how good our yard looks now. And I couldn’t agree more. I highly recommend this landscaping company. They know their work. And you won’t be disappointed. As you can see with my before and after pictures. Thanks to Matt and Kelly. I have a lotta yard. More than what I thought I actually had☺️and I’m so happy and excited. I have a lotta ideas that I wanna do to my backyard now.
