Top 3 Causes of Stormwater Issues in Nashville
Here’s Why Your Yard Might Be Holding Water
1. Heavy Rain & Flash Flooding
Nashville averages 47+ inches of rain annually, and intense storms can quickly overwhelm natural drainage, especially on sloped or clay-heavy lots.
2. Poor Grading & Soil Conditions
Many older homes — and even newer developments — weren’t graded properly, leading to low spots where water collects or flows toward the foundation.
3. Urban Growth & Hard Surfaces
Paved driveways, sidewalks, and compacted yards reduce soil absorption. Without proper drainage, this creates runoff that can erode lawns or leak into basements.
Quick Tips to Prevent Drainage & Erosion Issues
🏡 Extend your downspouts at least 6–10 feet from your home.
🌱 Aerate your lawn and landscape with erosion-tolerant vegetation.
💧 Watch for standing water or soil washout after rain — these are early warning signs.
📆 Schedule an annual grading and drainage inspection if your property is prone to pooling
