For decorative areas, select materials with proven local performance and allow for periodic maintenance after heavy storms.

Mobile’s heavy rain events make drainage and erosion control critical — choose materials and grades that promote runoff, use edging or geotextile fabric where needed, and avoid placing loose material where it can wash into storm drains. Consult local best practices for slope stabilization and consider adding a drainage layer under high-traffic areas.
