Erosion around houses
Amber Anderson
You are asked to look at erosion happening at two different houses:
House one:
This house was built approximately 10-12 years ago, is on a slight slope. Over time, this has developed:
House two:
This front yard has about 1-2″ of sediments over the previously established garden edge, along with a gully forming off the back downspouts off a of a C to D slope into a wooded area.
- What soils factors may be contributing to these two scenarios?
- The homeowner asks you what to do about each of these, what do you recommend/why?
