Yard drainage in Atlantic Beach

Atlantic Beach has about 4,200 detached homes with a median build year of 1985, 72 percent owner-occupied and a median value around $566,000. It shares the beaches' ground: sand that drains fast at the surface over a water table that sits roughly 2 feet down near the ocean and rises in the wet season. After a 3-inch storm the sand is already full, and the water stands in the lowest spot it can find — the side yard between two houses, the bottom of the driveway, the pool deck. Old Atlantic Beach near the town center has smaller, older lots close together; Selva Marina and Royal Palms have more yard and more mature trees, and the lots off Mayport Road sit lower. Work here is mostly short French drains and catch basins tied to downspout lines to the street. Dry wells are tested first and often ruled out. Paver driveways and walks fade fast in the salt air, so sealing is a regular second job.
