Ditch and Swale Excavation in Denton, TX
Ditches and swales create visible routes for water to move across or away from part of a property. A ditch is generally a more defined channel, while a swale is usually broader and shaped more gradually into the surrounding ground.
The requested work may include creating a new drainage path, restoring an existing channel, reshaping slopes, removing accumulated material, or connecting the feature to an appropriate outlet. The starting point, intended path, approximate distance, available outlet, and access limitations should be identified.
Soil removed during excavation must be handled according to the agreed scope. Erosion concerns and surface stabilization may require separate specifications. The drainage route must not be assumed without site information, and permits or engineering may be required for certain projects.
