Permeable Surfaces

If you have impermeable paving that you would like to make permeable, there are two main methods for doing so:

2. Remove and replace the surfaces with permeable paving.

Soils and Compost:

Incorporate compost 6" into your soil to retain water, reduce compaction, feed earthworms, and provide valuable nutrients to your plants.

Integrated Pest Management:

Drip and other smart irrigation delivers water directly to roots, allowing no excess water for weeds.
