Yard drainage in Ponte Vedra Beach

Ponte Vedra Beach and Palm Valley hold about 6,000 detached homes, 79 percent owner-occupied, with a median build year of 1991 and a median value around $646,000 — the highest home values in our zone. The ground is coastal sand, which drains quickly on the surface, but the water table on these lots sits roughly 2 feet down and rises in the wet season, so a heavy storm has nowhere to go. Sawgrass, Marsh Landing and the Plantation were built around lagoons and ponds and most lots drain toward them; the problems come where a pool enclosure, a paver patio or an addition changed the grading. Because so much of the yard is hardscape, channel drains at the pool deck and driveway and downspout lines to the lagoon easement are the common fixes, and dry wells are a last resort we test for. Paver patios and driveways are large and expensive here, so cleaning, re-sanding and sealing every two to three years is a regular visit.
