Ground water issues
Howdy Neighbours
We all know that this winter has been a particularly wet one. If fact we have had an unprecedented amount of rain which is causing new ground water issues everywhere.
Well fear not, we have solutions.
This is our latest project where our lovely clients were having issues with ground water seeping through the basement into the house. You can see the waterline on the dirt bank in the before photo.
We had a drainage company install drainage and a automatic submersible water pump to disperse the ground water. Then we installed a block wall with a Waterproofing membrane and scoria in front of the dirt bank. Works like magic and no more water issues.

What's your favourite tomato recipe?
Kia ora neighbours. We know your tomato plants are still growing, but we're looking ahead to the harvest already! If you've got a family recipe for tomatoes, we'd love to see it and maybe publish it in our magazine to share with our readers. Send your recipe to mailbox@nzgardener.co.nz, and if we use it in the mag, you will receive a free copy of our February 2025 issue.
