Dry Wells

Dry wells, the ingenious underground structures, offer a powerful way to handle stormwater runoff effectively. Also known as dry pits or soakaways, these structures collect excess water and release it gradually into the ground, safeguarding your property from water-related issues. At Welby Outdoor, we specialize in dry well solutions that blend seamlessly with your landscape.

Swales

Swales, those shallow, vegetated ditches or channels, are not just about preventing erosion and managing stormwater runoff. They are a vital element in creating eco-friendly, sustainable landscapes. By redirecting stormwater, swales help recharge groundwater, offer natural filtration, and significantly enhance water quality.

Our team of professionals can assess your property and determine the most suitable type, size, and shape of swale tailored to your needs. Whether it’s a grassy swale, a shrub-planted one, or a mulch-based design, we implement the best techniques to ensure optimal water absorption and soil stability.
