Water Harvesting

Built for Island Rain

Most Island properties get enough rain. The problem is it shows up all at once, runs away fast, and leaves you dry in August.

I build practical systems that slow water down, spread it out, and keep what you need — ponds, swales, drainage, and storage that fit your ground and your budget.

  • Ponds with proper inflow and overflow

  • Swales and infiltration to recharge the soil

  • Drainage that protects driveways and buildings

Water Systems We Build

Practical ways to keep Island rain working on your property.

PONDS

From small farm ponds to larger storage, each one is built around soil type, slope, and winter storms, with overflow and access planned from day one.

SWALES & INFILTRATION

Shaped to follow the land and spread water where it can soak in, reducing winter runoff and helping soil stay productive through dry months.

Excess water is directed where it belongs, and tanks or catchment are tied into the site so systems support each other instead of competing.

DRAINAGE & STORAGE
Every site is different.
