  • Plants

Not only trees have roots. Any sturdy plant like a bush or a shrub should not be near the foundation. Make sure you plan them at least a couple of feet away from the edge of the foundation. This will keep the roots and watering go where they should go.

  • Proper slope

Your house should not be at the bottom of your yard. Make sure that your house is at the top of a gentle slope. The entire yard should act as a drainage channel. French drains and subtle yard drainage can help to avoid any sagginess.
